After working with Ranbir Kapoor in two films, director Siddharth Anand feels the young actor has the potential to follow in the footsteps of megastar Amitabh Bachchan as the "complete Hindi film hero".
"Ranbir Kapoor can be the next Amitabh Bachchan"
"The day Ranbir does an action film and does it well, he has the potential to fill the void that Bachchan created," said Anand who teamed up with Ranbir for the second time for his new romantic comedy 'Anjaana Anjaani' releasing Sep 24.
The two had earlier worked together in 'Bachna Ae Haseeno' (2008). Ranbir, 27, is the son of well-known Bollywood actors Rishi and Neetu Kapoor.
"Ranbir is the perfect guy to play Anthony (a character played by Big B in 'Amar Akbar Anthony'), he can play coolie, and he can play the characters Bachchan played in his prime. There is no one else but him," Anand told us.
"He has got everything it takes to be the complete Hindi film hero that Bachchan was."
Anand, who debuted with 'Salaam Namaste' (2005), says he has tried to push the boundaries with his first film and completely smashed it with 'Anjaana Anjaani'.
