Reflecting back to 2012, I found myself standing alongside Arjun Kapoor on the set of our debut film together, Ishaqzaade. At that time, Parineeti Chopra was already a seasoned actress, having made her mark with Ladies vs Ricky Bahl. However, my impression of her was quite different; she was playful and chatty, while I approached the craft with a more serious demeanor.
In 2012, Arjun Kapoor started his acting career alongside Parineeti Chopra in the film Ishaqzaade. Interestingly, Chopra had previously entered show business with Ladies vs Ricky Bahl. On set, she was relaxed and playful, while Kapoor approached things more gravely. As a result, he occasionally found her behavior frustrating.
In an interview with Mashable India, Arjun Kapoor confessed that he initially disapproved of Parineeti Chopra being cast in their film, Ishaqzaade when it was announced. To support his statement, the actor explained that she tended to talk excessively and had difficulty reading lines during early auditions.
Reflecting on the past, Arjun reminisced about the day they were filming together. He shared that when the actress from Shuddh Desi Romance entered the set, he made a joke. Instead of just chuckling at it, she responded with the modern term ‘LOL’. Arjun humorously admitted, “I asked her if she could just laugh. It’s not a conversation. So, I found her somewhat annoying.” The actor from Gunday added this lightheartedly.
6 months into waiting for Zoya’s appearance, I found myself growing increasingly concerned when her responses were merely a string of laughing emojis. “My career’s on the line,” I thought to myself. “She doesn’t seem to take this seriously.” (I’ve been waiting 6 months for Zoya, and here she is responding with ‘LOL LOL’) I exclaimed.
At that point in time, Pari was working on the movie “Ladies vs Ricky Bahl” alongside Ranveer Singh and Anushka Sharma. This led Arjun to believe she wasn’t risking anything. He explained, “In essence, you can decide for yourself; I was 24 years old and I thought, ‘I want to establish a career’.
However, when they performed a rehearsal scene involving gunfire, Arjun was taken aback by her abilities that he momentarily lost his lines and acting prowess. “Suddenly the camera was rolling, and there was intensity in her gaze,” admitted Kapoor, “I was astounded, she can handle this. She’s quite talented.
Currently, professionally speaking, Parineeti was recently featured in Imtiaz Ali’s film Amar Singh Chamkila alongside Diljit Dosanjh. As for Arjun Kapoor, he garnered attention by portraying the character Danger Lanka in Rohit Shetty’s movie Singham Again.
