Shraddha Kapoor Ready to Comeback

Shraddha Kapoor reveals how she was asked to make the trademark Shakti Kapoor 'aaoon' sound and dance with naada hanging out of her shorts.

Shakti Kapoor's daughter Shraddha Kapoor's debut film Teen Patti might have gone unnoticed but the actress makes a refreshing comeback this year and is here to stay. "To be honest, I was extremely bummed out with the failure of Teen Patti ", admits Shraddha. "People didn't like the film and they are entirely entitled to their opinion. But such is life!"

"Since my first film didn't work, people were wary of casting me. Also I didn't have a fleshed out role in Teen Patti wherein people could judge me on the scale of my performance", confesses Shraddha who had hard time post Teen Patti . "Then I auditioned for this role in Y-Films and Luv Ka The End happened. It is a huge opportunity for me". Shraddha has now signed a 3-film deal with Y-Films though it's a non-exclusive agreement, meaning she can do films outside the banner as well.

Luv Ka The End , the first film coming from Y-Films, the new division of Yash Raj Films, claims to be an anti romantic-comedy film. That sounds unusual coming from the Yash Raj stable who are known for their sugar-coated love stories. Shraddha clarifies, "To begin with Luv Ka The End has lots of romance but as it progresses it has a violent twist after which it becomes an anti rom-com. I play the character of Riya Dayal who is feminine, quirky but at the same time determined. When she learns that her boyfriend is cheating on her, initially she is heartbroken and shattered. But she gets over the rona-dhona and picks up the baseball bat to get even with him".

So does her character have shades of Kill Bill ? "Well I never thought of it that way but now that you mention, I can actually see some common shades of violence and revenge between the two films", laughs the pretty Kapoor girl.

Talking about her costar Taaha Shah, Shraddha says, "I enjoyed getting even with him. This being his first film, he used to bombard me with questions from shot-takings to acting to anything and everything. He was like this curious cat who had no idea about things and I was an information bank to him".


But at the same time she learnt a lot from Taasha. "It was the climax sequence where I had trouble with this long monologue. Our film was made in a very short span of time and we didn't get enough time for rehearsals to perfect our acts. At that time Taasha helped me a lot with my lines and guided me through the entire sequence".

Any tips that came handy from father Shakti Kapoor since she is playing a role with grey shades? "Mine is not a negative character", she is quick to defend. "The only thing that my father taught me was to be honest with my performance. But more than my father it was director Bumpy who wanted me to be real wicked while swinging the baseball bat. He always complained that I was holding the bat in a girly way".


On a funny note Shradha adds that through the filming, she was asked to make the trademark Shakti Kapoor 'aaoon' sound a hundred times and dance with naada hanging out of her shorts. "But jokes apart I do not want my father to watch the film. Actually I haven't watched the film myself. Once I see the final film and am happy with it would I want my parents to watch it", says Shraddha.

Is she confident enough to cut through the competition in Bollywood? "I have heard good things about the industry and I have heard bad things. But, I believe, in times when we have banners like Y-Films that are supporting new talents, there are opportunities galore for youth and the industry can accommodate everyone. So no worries!", signs off Shraddha on a positive note.

Rati Agnihotri's Son

Here Comes Star Son Tanuj Virwani

Rati Agnihotri’s peppy 23-year-old, 6-footer Tanuj Virwani is ready for the camera.

The privileged only kid of a well-to-do builder-father and a comfortably-placed star mom, Tanuj Virwani is the kind of young man you’ll find on his parents’ weekend farmhouse, shooting a short film written by himself. And starring himself too, of course.

Because Tanuj is sure that this is where he wants to be – he wants to act and would rather cite Prateik Babbar’s route to fame than the conventional hero’s launch of other star kids.

After a stint as assistant director to Ken Ghosh on Chance Pe Dance where he learnt discipline from watching Shahid Kapoor turn up on the dot, even at 6 am, for shooting, Tanuj is sure that the creative medium completely satisfies him.

Ultimately, he will make films but acting is what he wants to do right now. “I’m ready for acting,” says Tanuj who has already been signed by BR Films for Purani Jeans, their youthful film with Giselle Monteiro (Saif’s Sikhni obsession in Love Aaj Kal).Meanwhile, he’s sifting other scripts as well, convinced that “script is king”, and damn a conventional launch.

Affable like his mother, and likeably garrulous, you’ve got to watch Tanuj do a take-off on every actor in town to know that this guy has it in him to make the film industry notice him. Now that’s an FSJ prediction.
