Shraddha Kapoor says she found it tough to convince people to cast her until THIS happened; reveals if dad Shakti Kapoor helped

As an ardent admirer of Shraddha Kapoor, I can’t help but be in awe of her journey from facing rejections to ruling the hearts of millions. Her resilience and self-reliance are truly inspiring, especially when you consider she’s not just any star kid but the daughter of the legendary Shakti Kapoor.

Bollywood actress Shraddha Kapoor is currently basking in the glory of Stree 2’s success. Apart from being admired for her exceptional acting skills, she is also known for her compassionate personality. Recently, she opened up about her difficult path leading to Aashiqui 2. She spoke about how it was tough to persuade producers to cast her and shared that even her father, Shakti Kapoor, chose not to use his influence to secure roles for her.

During a chat with GQ India, Shraddha Kapoor candidly discussed the challenges she encountered in her acting journey prior to her success with Aashiqui 2 in 2013.

As a follower of the principles instilled by my actor father, Shakti Kapoor – who emphasized self-reliance above all else – I’ve chosen to carve out my own path, free from shortcuts. This journey has been marked by encounters with rejections and setbacks that I’ve had to confront on my own terms. The road to success, therefore, has been a tough, yet deeply personal odyssey, shaped by my experiences and resilience.

In simpler terms, the actress from Street 2 stated, “Before Aashiqui came along, it was challenging to persuade others to choose me for a role.

During my recent sit-down with TopMob at the Red Sea International Film Festival 2024, I delightfully shared some one-of-a-kind, heartfelt descriptions about my esteemed male colleagues.

In my perspective, I can’t help but sing the praises of Rajkummar Rao, whose exceptional talent sets him apart from many others. As for Varun Dhawan, my co-star in ABCD 2, he is more than just a colleague; he’s a cherished friend. Working alongside Ranbir Kapoor in Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar last year was truly an enriching experience that I found absolutely remarkable.

Addressing her Aashiqui 2 co-star Aditya Roy Kapur, Shraddha praised him as incredibly talented. In reference to Sidharth Malhotra, she jokingly labeled his Ek Villain character, affectionately nicknaming him the same. Tiger Shroff was fondly referred to as ‘school friend’, since they both studied at the same educational institution.

Shraddha Kapoor not only praised Shahid Kapoor for his versatility but also reminisced about their collaborations in movies like Haider and Batti Gul Meter Chalu. Lastly, Arjun Kapoor, her co-star from Half Girlfriend, was characterized as an individual who is exceptionally expressive.
