Ranbir Kapoor is known for getting into the skin of the characters he portrays on-screen. The actor, who is currently shooting for Sanjay Dutt’s biopic, is determined to leave no stone unturned in his quest to do justice to his role. After gaining 13 kilograms to resemble Dutt’s large frame, studying his body language and style, the actor is now contemplating on getting Sanjay’s tattoos done on his body!

A source close to the film recently revealed, “Ranbir has put in a lot of effort to adopt Dutt’s gait and body language, which was difficult. The latter had provided around 200 hours of footage of him walking to make the job easier. While Ranbir is currently shooting for the portions where Dutt is young, the team has started putting together all that they need to figure out for the other schedule, which will show Ranbir play a much older Dutt.”

He further added, “Everyone knows that Dutt has a lot of tattoos on his body, so Ranbir is now contemplating getting them on his body as well. The tattoos are so intricate that Ranbir will have to sit down with the original tattoo artist to get a similar look."

Earlier, for Ayan Mukerji's ‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani’, Ranbir got the word ‘awaara’ tattooed on his wrist in the Devanagari script, so it won’t come much as a surprise if he does get Dutt’s tattoos done for the biopic.
