The reigning Bollywood superstar bagged the 'Entertainment Leader of the Year Award' at the prestigious event

Bollywood's reigning superstar, actor Ranveer Singh was bestowed the 'Entertainment Leader of the Year Award' at the 13th edition of CNBC TV-18 India Business Leader Awards, held in the capital, on Friday.

Speaking at the event, the elated actor said, `Standing at a business leaders awards show and getting an award here, I would like to say that I definitely want to make more money. In fact, my father keeps complaining that I make less money than my popularity. However, more than making money for myself, I want Hindi films to make more money. 'Bahubali 2' has done a great business and it has shown the potential. We are definitely on the right track and there is no reason why our films should not be doing as well as China's. I would also try to put my best foot forward, be the best entertainer and put a mark on the world stage.`

On being asked to choose between Alauddin Khalji and Baji Rao, the actor known for his quirky remarks, said that he would choose Baji Rao over Khalji because Baji Rao was a better person than Khalji. Ranveer who is playing a rapper in his upcoming film Gully Boy, also said that Jay Z was his favourite rapper.

Ranveer began his career with Yashraj Films' Band Baaja Baaraat, and has continued to deliver blockbuster films while enthralling the viewers with his pure talent. His work in films such as Lootera, Dil Dhadakne Do, Bajirao Mastani and the very recent Padmaavat, has been highly appreciated by the audience and the critics alike.
