Ranveer Singh has landed himself in a very oddball situation with a mere Instagram caption. The actor was on a spree of posting pictures with star cricketers a day ago. Of course, Indian cricket team had won against Pakistan in a match at ICC 2019 Cricket World Cup, so Ranveer's excitement is understandable. It is his picture with Hardik Pandya that has caught the attention of the WWE World. Paul Heyman, Brock Lesnar's rep in WWE, has threatened the actor with a copyright claim. Ranveer had captioned the picture as "Eat, Sleep, Dominate, Repeat,". And it is sort of similar to Brock's war cry, "Eat, Sleep, Conquer, Repeat,".
Paul uses the phrase to hype up his client Brock every time he enters the ring. The phrase has become popular over the years. So, Paul took to his Twitter handle to reprimand Ranveer. 83-The Film: Ranveer Singh Shares the Memories of India's 1983 Cricket World Cup Win - Watch Video.
Here is what Paul tweeted to Ranveer:
ARE YOU F'N KIDDING ME???????????
1 - It's Eat Sleep CONQUER Repeat
2 - Copyright #YourHumbleAdvocate and @BrockLesnar
3 - I am litigious
4 - EAT SLEEP DEPOSITION REPEAT https://t.co/yppZe129eZ

Fans were quick to speculate if there will be a fight between Brock and Ranveer in the future. That is a little far fetched. Don't you think? Meanwhile, we all are waiting for Ranveer and his reps to reply to Paul.
On the work front, Ranveer Singh will be next seen in the cricket-based movie, 83. The movie directed by Kabir Khan is the retelling of Team India's win at the Cricket World Cup 1983, and will have Ranveer playing the role of former skipper Kapil Dev. The actor also has Karan Johar's directorial Takht to look forward to. The actor has also been roped in for YRF's Jayeshbhai Jordaar.
