Ranveer Singh's Controversial Nude Photoshoot Makes Headlines Again, Netizens React
Sufjan Stevens, latest release titled 'Javelin' YouTube cover, showcases a photograph from Ranveer Singh's infamous nude photoshoot for Paper magazine that took place last year.
New Delhi: The latest release from American singer-songwriter Sufjan Stevens, titled 'Javelin' last Friday and has garnered significant attention for its portrayal of themes related to romantic separation and emotional pain. However, what has particularly piqued the interest of Indian fans is the album's YouTube cover, showcasing a photograph from Ranveer Singh's infamous nude photoshoot for Paper magazine that took place last year.
Ranveer made a significant mark in pop culture when he did a nude photoshoot for an international magazine, an act that subsequently led to the filing of numerous complaints against him for allegedly offending religious sentiments. With the reappearance of his nude photoshoot in connection with Sufjan Stevens' latest album, reactions poured in swiftly and abundantly on social media.
A reddit user shared it with the caption, "Sufjan is one of my favourite singers ever, his whole discography is just perfect. I was shocked while searching for his new album to come across Ranveer’s photoshoot. I love this intersection of my two personalities, it’s so funny because it was so unexpected?"
Netizens soon started puring in comments to the post. One user wrote a long comment saying, "If you actually think about it, Ranveer would have been the perfect brown Hollywood darling. He has the talent, would blitz up red carpets and actually have other people as competition in the area of flamboyance. They wouldn't be making fun of his sartorial choices and would actually encourage him to experiment more. And they would DEFINITELY love his nude photoshoots lol. Quick, Ranveer, get an agent. Hollywood still doesn't have their token brown darling. They try with Dev Patel but there's a gap somewhere and Avan Jogia can't fix it."
Other comments said, "Nothing could've prepared me for this...", "Ooh that's big for Indie fans...", "Damn that is huge. Good for Ranveer."
Talking about Ranveer's nude photoshoot, the widely circulated photo series for Paper magazine caused quite a sensation last year. The actor's photoshoot for the magazine served as a homage to the '70s pop legend Burt Reynolds, who famously posed nude for a Cosmopolitan magazine shoot back in 1972.
