After working with Ranbir Kapoor in two films, director Siddharth Anand feels the young actor has the potential to follow in the footsteps of megastar Amitabh Bachchan as the "complete Hindi film hero"."The day Ranbir does an action film and does it well, he has the potential to fill the void that Bachchan created," said Anand who teamed up with Ranbir for the second time for his new romantic comedy 'Anjaana Anjaani' releasing Sep 24.
The two had earlier worked together in 'Bachna Ae Haseeno' (2008).
"Ranbir is the perfect guy to play Anthony (a character played by Big B in 'Amar Akbar Anthony'), he can play coolie, he can play the characters Bachchan played in his prime. There is no one else but him," Anand said.
"He has got everything it takes to be the complete Hindi film hero that Bachchan was."
Anand, who debuted with 'Salaam Namaste' (2005), says he has tried to push the boundaries with his first film and completely smashed it with 'Anjaana Anjaani'.
"I have torn the boundaries here. When you see the film, it's something unlike you have seen at any point of time. It's a love story but its situations are very unique," said the young director.
