As the 35-year-old actor, who is husband to actress Deepika Padukone, clocks 10 years in the Hindi film industry today since his debut super hit film ‘Band Baaja Baaraat’, Ranveer walks down memory lane, sharing that behind his success, life has been full of struggles and rejections.

“My struggle period wasn’t easy at all. For close to 3.5 years, I was just groping in the dark, attempting various avenues, trying to get a break, endeavouring to get my foot in the door, doing rounds of various offices with my portfolio, looking for work, but not knowing whether it will ever happen at all’, Ranveer told Indian daily the Hindustan Times.

After getting his break in Band Baaja Baarat, there was no looking back for Ranveer, who went on to give super hit performances in movies like ‘Lootera’, ‘Goliyon Ki Rasleela Ram-Leela’, ‘Bajirao Mastani’, ‘Dil Dhadakne Do’, ‘Padmaavat’, ‘Simmba’, and ‘Gully Boy’.
