When he debuted opposite the much established Anushka Sharma in Band Baaja Baaraat, we couldn’t take our eyes off his Bittoo character.

Perhaps that’s why Ranveer Singh, who completes five glorious years in Bollywood, has grown from strength to strength to become the new age superstar. As he celebrates his achievements, we round up a list of reasons why he is where he is…take a look:

Acting skills par excellence:

He played the Delhi sadak-chaap Bittoo (his maiden venture) to perfection. He rocked the conman character in Lootera with ease and did complete justice to Ram from Ram-Leela. With Bajirao Mastani touted to take his career up a notch, do we really need any more reason to love this dude?

Fashion forward:

There’s fashion, then there is Ranveer’s brand of sartorial sense. From pairing a jacket with a flared skirt to doing floral print on floral to wearing utterly feminine clothes with his moustache, he has always tried to break away from restrictions. It also helps that he rock any look with panache. He doesn’t need to stick to conventions to make a statement because whatever he chooses to wear becomes a trend.

His chemistry with the ladies:

The self-proclaimed ladies’ man has an enviable chemistry with his heroines as well. He and alleged real life lover Deepika Padukone can bring the house down, while Ranveer and Priyanka Chopra can make even seasoned romantics blush. If He brought out the raw passion in Sonakshi Sinha in Lootera, he made the sexy Anushka Sharma sassy with his pairing. He is probably the only actor of this generation to enjoy the undivided attention of his actresses. Some guys have all the luck, eh?

Versatile actor:

Apart from being a damn good actor, he is also a versatile one. He can play a middle-class boy, a rich tycoon’s son a Maratha king with equal ease and charm. Also, he can rock a clean shaven face, a ruggedly sexy moustache and a five o’clock shadow with utter grace. Really ladies, what else do you need?

Dancing king:

Apart from acting, this lad has redefined dancing too. His Tattad gave us goose bumps and his Malhari is making us drool. He can dance his way into our hearts for sure. The reason he is such a sensation on the floor is because of his burning energy and crazy passion. He makes everything livewire.

Don’t we love Ranveer???
