Shraddha Kapoor On Link-Up With Farhan Akhtar: It's Unfair

Darpan News Desk IANS, 05 Nov, 2016 01:25 PM
    Shraddha Kapoor feels rumours about her personal life are unfair as they take away the focus from her work.
     
    "Link-ups have always bothered me. Be it with whoever it has been in the past, because I feel like it is very unfair on an actor especially when you're working together and you are also giving an interview," Shraddha said.
     
    There were reports that the Baaghi actress was involved with her Rock On 2 co-star Farhan Akhtar while shooting the film.
     
    The 29-year-old actress believes she has given her best for the film, but ultimately it is the apparent link-up which will be spoken about, not her hard work.
     
    "So, I feel it is very unfair to me. I feel I've given 66 days of my life to the film shoot, if I've given another 70 days for prep, and it all comes down to me talking about my personal life."
     
    Shraddha says the focus should be on an artist's work rather than on rumours.
     
    "I think that people should really understand what it takes to make a film. It cannot be about link up rumours and stuff. I feel interviews should be more about that (films)."
     
    Rock On 2 is scheduled to release on November 11.
     
    BOTH 'NERVOUS AND EXCITED' ABOUT HASEENA BIOPIC
     
     
    Shraddha Kapoor will be seen sharing screen space with her brother Siddhanth in the upcoming biopic Haseena and the actress is a bundle of nerves even before filming.
     
    The film is a biopic on underworld don Dawood Ibrahim's sister Haseena. The Baaghi star will be seen in the titular role in Haseena: The Queen of Mumbai
     
    "I am very excited and nervous because I've been thinking if I have to do a scene with him, I've to forget that he is my 'bhaiya'. He is the character in the film who is also my brother," she said in an interview.
     
    "But ultimately I think it'll help that we are brothers and sisters. I hope that bond translates on screen," she added.
     
    The film is directed by Apoorva Lakhia. Sonakshi Sinha was initially roped in for the biopic but the actress dropped out of the project.
     
    Shraddha, 29, says her brother has already started shooting for the film and she will join him soon.
     
     
    "I've not started shooting with him as yet but he started a schedule. I'll be joining soon. I think this is the first time ever that a real life brother sister have come on screen as reel life brother sister," she said.
     
    The film will chronicle the journey of Haseena from teenage to the time when she is 40-year-old. Shraddha meanwhile, will be next seen in Rock On 2.
     
    Also starring Arjun Rampal, Prachi Desai, Purab Kohli and Shashank Arora, the film will arrive in theatres on November 11. It has been helmed by debutante Shujat Saudagar.
