Saqib, who has starred in four films since making his Bollywood debut in 2011 with Mujhse Fraaandship Karoge, feels Ranbir's film resume is to die for as it consists of commercial as well as off-beat movies.

"I am jealous of Ranbir Kapoor and his filmography. On one hand, he does a Barfi! and on the other Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani. He is the perfect combination of a star and an actor," Saqib told PTI in an interview.

The 25-year-old actor also showered praise on his contemporaries like Varun Dhawan, Arjun Kapoor and National award-winning actor Rajkummar Rao.

"I was blown away by Varun's performance in Main Tera Hero. I called him up and said,'Bro, you killed it!' I think he is a full entertainment package," he said, adding that he liked Arjun Kapoor in 2 States and Rajkummar Rao in Shahid.
