One of the hottest men in Bollywood is also one of the most non-toxic males in the Hindi film industry. Not only is he married to one of the most beautiful and powerful women in Bollywood, but he’s also known to get women across the country weak in their knees with a single look. We’re talking about birthday boy, Ranveer Singh. A total cracker jacker of a man, Singh has shattered decades of toxic masculinity in Bollywood and doesn’t give a damn about what people have to say. Here’s why
#1
In an interview with Vogue, Singh said that his soul was feminine. “I was brought up by strong women. My soul is feminine,” he said. That’s not something you’ll hear from any other Bollywood actor.

Today, people around the world praise Harry Styles for his androgynous fashion but Singh has worn eyeliner, nose rings, skirts, pearls and even carried a woman’s handbag without giving a damn.

Not only did Singh portray a bisexual in Padmaavat, but he was also unashamed by the obvious chemistry between himself and Jim Sarbh’s character. That’s not all – in a world where men aren’t allowed to show affection, Singh happily kisses his male friends and fans on their cheek.

Let’s talk about safe sex. Safe sex is the need of the hour and yet, men around the world feel emasculated by condoms. They come up with myriad excuses to not wear it. Singh was the first A-lister to endorse a condom brand and that did not lessen his appeal amongst women in the least.

There are numerous examples of popular actresses quitting their careers after marriage. Take Jaya Bachchan, Kajol, Madhuri Dixit etc. Sure, they may have made a comeback but only after ages. Singh is married to a woman who was paid more than him for a film he starred in – Padmaavat. Besides that, he never shies away from praising her.
