Ranveer Singh lives every day like it’s his last
Ranveer talks about his best friend’s tragic suicide and more
Mumbai: Following a serious bout of illness after 'Gunday', Ranveer Singh admits he lives every day as if it was his last. Also, the death of a close friend in the United States has been a sobering experience. “I would at times get out of control. We never analyse ourselves. I never thought that my energies were high. I came to know after it was written about me. All my friends know me as a mad guy who keeps on doing weird things,” says the actor.
“I have only one life with only so many days in it. So for me every day is like the last one… I thus want to give every moment to that one thing I do,” he adds.
“While doing Lootera I broke my back. Lying in bed, I kept thinking ‘If this happens often, I will never be able to do what I like to do — acting’. I believe in today, who knows if tomorrow will come. I learned a lot from this accident.
“After suffering from dengue during Gunday I was told by the doctor that I managed to fight the disease only because of my fitness levels. I had hit a rock-bottom situation where anything could have happened to me. I fought to stay alive.
“My childhood best friend passed away recently, that was unbearable. I had thought we would get married and see our kids grow up together. He was my age…he committed suicide in the US,” says Ranveer, adding, “Now I have learnt that aaj hai, kal nahi hai…anything can happen.
“If I am meeting my mum before leaving for a trip then I meet her as though that is the last day for me. I don’t know what the future has in store. So I live in the present. My optimism is ‘I have it now and I will do the best."
