‘Who Are You?’: Ranveer Singh Has Awkward Moment With F1 Journalist [Video]

A tweep asked what Ranveer Singh was doing at the event anyway.

Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh had an embarrassing encounter with a sports journalist at the 2022 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix yesterday. Former racing driver-turned-journalist, Matrin Brundle, from Sky Sports spotted the Bajirao Mastani star during his grid walk, and admitted that he ‘momentarily forgot’ who the actor is.

Dressed in his usual eccentric style, Versace-clad Ranveer Singh had to introduce himself to the journalist. He said, “I am a Bollywood actor and I hail from Mumbai, India. I am an entertainer”.

The video clip of Ranveer Singh’s awkward interaction with the journalist is making rounds on social media. Here’s how Twitterati reacted to it:

“Gora (white man) doesn’t know who Ranveer Singh is”.

While people cringed at the Bollywood actor’s over-the-top antics as some suggested he was high on drugs.

One F1 racing fan was upset with Ranveer Singh’s literal presence at the event.
