American singer-songwriter Sufjan Stevens’ new album Javelin dropped on Friday and has been widely described as a breakup album for its themes of heartbreak and suffering. But what is catching the attention of Indian fans is the album’s cover on YouTube, which features a picture of Ranveer Singh nude photoshoot for Paper magazine from last.
Ranveer Singh made pop culture history with his nude photoshoot for the international magazine, and what followed was the filing of multiple complaints against him for hurting religious sentiments. As his nude photoshoot resurfaced again with Sufjan Stevens’ new album, reactions flooded in swiftly and fast.
Sharing a screenshot of Ranveer from the album’s cover, a Reddit user posted, “Sufjan is one of my favorite singers ever, his whole discography is just perfect. I was shocked while searching for his new album to come across Ranveer’s photoshoot. I love this intersection of my two personalities, it’s so funny because it was so unexpected.
Reacting to to Reddit post a person wrote, “Nothing could’ve prepared me for this…” A second commented, “Ooh that’s big for Indie fans…” One person also wrote, “Damn that is huge. Good for Ranveer.”
Another said, “If you actually think about it, Ranveer would have been the perfect brown Hollywood darling. He has the talent, would blitz up red carpets, and actually have other people as competition in the area of flamboyance. They wouldn’t be making fun of his sartorial choices and would actually encourage him to experiment more.
