In the last few days the petite and pretty Shraddha Kapoor's life has undergone a complete transformation.
It's known as the before-and-after affect. And it happens to every
aspirant who is blessed with that career-changing hit. Understandably
Shraddha Kapoor is left a little dazed and disoriented with all that has
happened
to her since the release of Aashiqui 2 on Friday.
`I can't believe all this is happening to me! It's just not registering
in my mind. I haven't had the time to let it all sink in. I am scared if
I begin to understand all that's being said and written about me and my
performance
I'll just break down and howl.
For now, my co-star Aditya and I
are just going crazy with the marketing and promotion. We haven't really
had time to feel successful, ` confesses Shraddha.
`It's a solid part. I can't talk about it now. But I can say this much.
People who like me in Aashiqui 2 won't be disappointed with it. I'm
getting good offers now. I couldn't have hoped for more.
The overwhelmed young actress admits the experience of being recognized
is unique. `People seem to love the film. They've connected with my
character.
Suddenly on the roads and in the airports there is
a lot of finger-pointing and saying, 'Look, Aashiqui ki heroine'. I am
trying to get used to the attention. I've to admit it feels nice. I was
in Delhi over the weekend for a wedding. On the airport I had random
people coming
forward to say hello to me. `
The role of the singer in Aashiqui 2 was providential, as Shradha comes
from a family of singers. Her mother Shivangi Kolhapure and her aunt
Padmini Kolhapure are singers.
`And do you know, I am related to Lataji and Ashaji ? So playing a
singer was part of my karma and in my genes, I guess. Mahesh Bhatt Saab
had predicted this film would be the film I'd want to preserve for
posterity.
He was right. `
There is much jubilation in the Kapoor household, `My home is currently a
beehive of activity. My brother and I have releases within a week of
each other. So our home is a madhouse at the the moment. I hope it stays
that way.
My parents (actor Shakti Kapoor and Shivangi
Kolhapure) are over the moon about Aashiqui 2. But the happiest one is
my brother. Siddhant Bhaiyya himself makes his debut this week in
Shootout At Wadala. So he is excited about my film while I am nervous
and excited about his debut. `
Shradha admits the the failure of her initial films affected her. `Of
course I was hurt. But when I am started shooting for my first film Teen
Patti I was still very raw. I was too young to undertand what was going
on. But
no regrets at all. Whatever films I chose to do I look at as part of my
journey as a human being and an actor. `
Next, Shraddha has Puneet Malhotra's Gori Tere Pyar Mein with Imran Khan and Kareena Kapoor coming up.
