As Bollywood's powerhouse performer Ranveer Singh turned 40, he received a vibrant and poetic tribute from none other than filmmaker Karan Johar. Taking to Instagram, Johar shared a heartfelt post filled with admiration, warmth, and signature flair — much like the birthday boy himself.
Karan Johar’s Poetic Ode to Ranveer Singh
Karan accompanied his birthday wishes with a few candid photos of Ranveer and poured his heart into a beautifully written poem. In it, he celebrated the actor’s flamboyant style, infectious energy, and golden heart, calling him the “lord of bling.”
He wrote:“Happy Birthday @ranveersingh
Buoyant spirit, blazing bright,A comet streaking through the night,In every step, a thunderous cheer,Ranveer walks, the world draws near.A fashionista bold and grand,Silken suits and sequins stand,A canvas dressed in dreams and flair,Each outfit roars, ‘He doesn’t care!’”
Continuing further, Johar touched upon the many layers of Ranveer’s personality:
“Yet deeper still this man unfolds,
A heart of gold within he holds,A larger-than-life, flamboyant flame,But kind and warm beyond the fame.His laughter rolls like summer skies,A mimic’s art behind his eyes,A thousand voices, shades, and ways,His acting leaves us in a daze.He jokes, he dances, flips and twirls,A madcap prince in mortal worlds….Yet roots run deep, a loyal son,A brother, husband, all in one.”
Johar concluded the poem with moving words that encapsulated Ranveer’s essence:
“For Deepika’s smile, for parents’ pride
For friends who know he’ll never hideHe gives his all, his soul, his grin,Such love and light he carries in.So here’s to Ranveer — fierce and true,A rainbow burst in Bollywood’s blue,May his spirit ever leap and sing,Long live the lord of BLING Ranveer Singh!!”
