Arsenal clinched their first Premier League title in 22 years, and Bollywood star Ranveer Singh marked the moment with a heartfelt Instagram note that drew as much on his own life philosophy as on the club's historic triumph. The post, shared on his stories, quickly resonated with fans of both football and the actor.

Ranveer's Tribute to the Gunners

In his note, Ranveer described his journey as an Arsenal supporter as one of deliberate choice rather than birthright. 'Arsenal is not a family I was born into. It is a family I chose,' he wrote, tracing his allegiance back to 2001, when he was just 16 and fell under the spell of Arsene Wenger's celebrated 'Invincibles' side. 'What style, what flair, what a dazzling club!' he added, before acknowledging the long years of struggle that followed.

Ranveer did not shy away from the pain of the lean years. 'Then, times changed. The tides of fortune kept ebbing, for what became a cruel age,' he wrote — a sentiment that will ring true for any Arsenal supporter who endured the club's prolonged title drought.

The Redemption Arc

Calling the victory 'a redemption arc for the ages,' Ranveer framed Arsenal's triumph as something far larger than a sporting result. 'But today, after 22 arduous years of struggle, hate, ridicule and despondency, pride and glory is restored at Arsenal football club,' he wrote, signing off with the rallying cry #COYG — Come On You Gunners.

His message carried an unmistakable life lesson: 'Stay the course, keep believing in yourself, trust the process, maintain the purity in your intent and back it with unrelenting hard work, the reward will come. Loyalty and resilience matter most in hard times.' He also paid tribute to manager Mikel Arteta, referring to him as 'Super Mik' and saluting his 'young Gunners'.

Arsenal's Historic Achievement

The title is Arsenal's 14th English top-flight championship, placing them third on the all-time list behind Liverpool and Manchester United, who have each won the title 20 times. The triumph ends a sequence of heartbreak that included three consecutive runners-up finishes, most painfully in 2023/24 when Manchester City edged them out by just two points.

Notably, Arsenal's success means the Premier League title has been claimed by three different clubs in three successive seasons — following Liverpool in 2024/25 and Manchester City in 2023/24. This is only the fifth time in Premier League history that such a sequence has occurred.

Premier League's Shifting Power

The last comparable run came between 2015/16 and 2017/18, when Leicester City's fairytale triumph was followed by Chelsea and then Manchester City under Pep Guardiola. Before that, a four-year stretch from 2012/13 to 2015/16 saw the trophy rotate between Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, and Leicester. Arsenal's win signals a genuine shift in the Premier League's balance of power, and for long-suffering Gunners fans, the wait — however agonising — is finally over.
