Bollywood star Shraddha Kapoor is on cloud nine after the success of Stree 2. Known not only for her incredible acting but also for her kind nature, Shraddha Kapoor recently opened up about her challenging journey before Aashiqui 2. He talked about how confident people were in casting him. This was no easy feat and he revealed that his father, Shakti Kapoor, left no stone unturned to help him land roles.
In an interview with GQ India, Shraddha Kapoor talked about the struggles she faced in her career before her success with Aashiqui 2 in 2013.
Despite being the daughter of veteran actor Shakti Kapoor, she took her journey without any shortcuts, as her father believed in the power of self-reliance. This approach meant facing rejections and failures himself, making the path to success challenging and deeply personal.
“Until Aashiqui came, it was very difficult to convince people to cast me,” said the Stree 2 actress.
Earlier, during an exclusive conversation with Pinkvilla at the Red Sea International Film Festival 2024, Shraddha Kapoor described her male co-stars in a unique and lovely way.
He praised Rajkummar Rao’s unmatched talent and called ABCD 2 co-star Varun Dhawan his dear friend. Speaking about Ranbir Kapoor, his co-star in last year’s Tu Jhoothi ​​Main Makkar, he highlighted how wonderful it was to collaborate with him.
Turning to Aashiqui 2 co-star Aditya Roy Kapur, Shraddha described him as extremely talented. As for Sidharth Malhotra, she jokingly referred to his villainous personality and jokingly gave him the same name. Tiger Shroff inherited the age-old title of ‘school buddy’ as both of them studied in the same institute.
