Not only did the Simmba star receive a special honour at the gala, but also got an opportunity to meet his ‘screen idol’ and Hollywood actor Johnny Depp in Saudi Arabia.
The official Instagram page of the Red Sea Film Festival posted several pictures and videos from the ongoing edition. In one of the images, Ranveer is seen striking a pose with none other than Johnny Depp.

Ranveer undoubtedly shared his fanboy moment meeting Johnny Depp. He also gave him a huge shout-out while receiving a special honour at the festival.
A viral video has been doing the rounds on the internet in which Ranveer said, “Wow! One of my screen idols is in the house, ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Johnny Depp. My good, sir, I’ve followed your work since Edward Scissorhands and What’s Eating Gilbert Grape. What an honor to be receiving this in your presence. Thank you for everything that you unknowingly taught me about the craft. Master of transformation, versatility, something that I am inspired by you.”
Ranveer’s warm gesture brought a huge smile on Johnny Depp’s face.
Meanwhile, on the film front, Ranveer is all set to surprise the audience with his exciting line-up of his films next year.
