Ranveer Singh takes on Tahir Shah's 'Eye to Eye'

E-Paper | June 14, 2026

Dubsmash is the hub of outrageous performances, so it comes as no surprise that eccentric Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh would jump at the opportunity to express his crazy side.

He dedicates the performance to Hrithik Roshan, who had sent the song to Ranveer as part of greetings for his birthday on July 8. He also challenged Ranveer to sing the song better.

Hrithik was most amused by Ranveer's attempt:

Shaan shahid should try this. Lollywood is no less than bollywood. Shaan shahid is definitely better than amitabh and shah rukh khan

@Malik stop comparing indian actors with pakistani actors. Everyone has own style and dont forget amitab bachan has fan following of billions people, whereas who knows shaan shahid outside of pakistan.

@Madhusudan Who knows Amitabh other than the Indians and Pakistanis, ask a common man in USA, EUROPE, Scandinavian countries, 90% of his Billion fans happen to be living in India.

One actor in Pakistan who can out perform amitabh or SRK is Shaan Shahid. It doesn't matter if big A or SRK are known throughout the world but a little known SS can out perform both mega stars hands down any given day. I know I am going to get a lot criticism from big brother India but freedom of speech is fundamental right. Love from Nepal

@Madhusudan amitabh was only an average actor. Indian theatres wide exposure is the reason why he is known the world over.
