Here are ten of Ranbir's most memorable roles and the profound lessons they teach.

• Sanju (Sanju, 2018) - This biopic not only reflects Sanjay Dutt's tumultuous life but teaches us about resilience in the face of adversity. Sanju's life story shows that no matter how far one falls, redemption is always possible through self-reflection and perseverance.

• Ved (Tamasha, 2015)

  
  

  Ved's journey is a lesson in authenticity. His struggle with identity and the eventual embrace of his true self over societal expectations highlights the importance of living life on your terms, despite the pressures to conform.

• Barfi (Barfi!, 2012)

  
  

  Playing a character with disabilities, Barfi's life teaches us about finding joy in the smallest things. His story is a profound reminder that happiness is not dependent on societal norms of success or perfection but on one's ability to appreciate life's simplicity.

• Sidharth Mehra (Wake Up Sid, 2009)

  
  

  Sid's transformation from a carefree youth to a responsible adult underscores the necessity of self-discovery and growth. His story encourages young adults to explore their passions, take life's challenges head-on, and evolve through personal and professional journeys.

• Prem (Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani, 2009)

  
  

  Prem's love story teaches the essence of selfless love. His character embodies the idea that genuine affection doesn't seek reciprocation; it's about giving without expecting anything in return, which can be one of life's most fulfilling experiences.

Interestingly, the entire movie is now officially available to watch for free on YouTube. Here it is for you if you'd like to revisit the classic:

• Jordan (Rockstar, 2011)

  
  

  Jordan's path from obscurity to fame and his subsequent fall teaches about the intoxicating allure of success and the dangers of losing oneself in the pursuit of dreams. His story is a cautionary tale about balancing ambition with personal well-being.

• Bunny (Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, 2013)

  
  

  Bunny's character explores the transient nature of youth and the importance of embracing life's journey with all its ups and downs. His narrative suggests that while adventures are thrilling, true happiness often lies in the commitments we make along the way.

• Samar (Raajneeti, 2010)

  
  

  Samar's involvement in politics reflects the moral dilemmas one faces when power and ambition collide. His journey teaches about the complexities of leadership, the ethical compromises in political life, and the internal conflict between ideals and reality.

• Rocket (Rocket Singh: Salesman of the Year, 2009)

  
  

  Harpreet's (Rocket) ethical approach to business amidst corporate dishonesty teaches integrity. His story emphasizes that success doesn't always mean the most profit but can be measured by the integrity with which one conducts their affairs.

• Shiva (Brahmāstra: Part One – Shiva, 2022)

  
  

  While not as critically acclaimed, Shiva's character introduces the concept of discovering one's inner strength and potential.
