Enlarge ImageRanveer Singh isn’t someone who holds back his emotions. Never mind that he is in Paris when he does that. He put up a video recently of him dancing to 440 Volt and Baby Ko Bass Pasand Hai at a Parisian theatre where Salman Khan-starrer Sultan was being screened.

The film’s director (and Ranveer’s friend) Ali Abbas Zafar gets emotional as he speaks on the enthusiastic endorsement. “Ranveer is a buddy from a long way back. We became close friends during Gunday. I know how happy he is for me and the success of Sultan. If he was here, he would have joined me at the preview with my other special friends and he would’ve danced just as hard. But he’s in Paris shooting with Aditya Chopra for Befikre. So he saw the film there in the theatre.”

Says Ali, “After Ranveer did this amazing thing in Paris he immediately called me to tell me what he did. He told me, ‘Maine Paris mein Galaxy-Gaiety (two important single-screen theatres in Mumbai) bana diya’. Ranveer is that kind of a person. He doesn’t hold back. And he is genuinely proud of my achievement.”
