Jim Sarbh sets record for acting comment not directed at Ranveer Singh: ‘I’ve only had great things to say about him as a co-star’

On Saturday, Jim Sarb took to social media to clarify his position. “I think it’s almost absurd to clarify this, but as people are confused by videos and articles: nothing I said is about Ranveer Singh. Shared video bytes are Made in heaven Season 2 shares, after 5 whole years Padmaavati came out 5 years. I had nothing but wonderful things to say about Ranveer as a co-star – check it out. I still do. Also: This is not an attack on the process. I love the process and I love the actors,” he wrote.

“The video makes fun of actors who exaggerate their process. I’m sure you’ve all come across people who talk more about their work than their work. I can’t wait for the next article or video I shot off my shoulder…. I usually don’t respond to speculative videos and articles because they are boring and I think people know better. Of course, like some of you, I guessed wrong. So many people have sent me stuff and now journalists/interviewers are ‘identifying’ me as a ‘critic’ even though I’ve never mentioned anyone, especially @ranveersingh,” he added, tagging Ranveer Singh with a few emojis.

Jim Sarby’s comments gained a lot of attention after actor Prashant Narayanan also mocked Singh’s method acting approach for his role as the villainous Khilji. Padmaavati. Singh spoke well about portraying a character isolated in his home, which raised concerns about his mental state when he left that space. Both Sarb and Narayanan expressed skepticism about such an intensive process.

In an interview with The Quint, Sarb said, “There are all those actors who are like, ‘You know, I was so stuck in my character that I had to undergo mental therapy weeks later.’ I was saying: shut up bro. You didn’t even know your lines that day, what nonsense. Social media users interpreted this as a veiled jab at Singh, prompting Sarb’s explanation.
