Here's why Sonam Kapoor was scared to work with Hrithik Roshan

September 2, 2015

Mumbai, Sep 2: Sonam Kapoor and Hrithik Roshan have just released a video where they have recreated the popular track Dheere Dheere from the Mahesh Bhatt's block-buster Aashiqui (1990). But Sonam has said she was initially scared to work with Hrithik! The actor's huge stardom apparently scared her but after working with him, she realised that it's amazing to work with the Krish star.

sonamPunjabi rapper Yo Yo Honey Singh has written, cmposed the music and lent his voice for the new version of Dheere Dheere.

"It's amazing working with him (Hrithik). It's a preconceived notion that you get really scared to work with someone who is like this huge mega star. And I think the only other mega star I have worked with is Salman Khan. The amazing thing about him (Hrithik) is that he is very relaxed and causal and what I like about him is that he treats people around him nicely," the Khoobsurat actor said.

Sonam liked Hrithik's humility and approach towards people: "There are lot of people who are not kind to others because they think they are bigger than everybody else but he is very normal and humble. There is a lot of humility and he is also open to everything and everybody. It's a very unusual quality in a person who has seen so much success in life...that's pretty incredible and that really makes a person grow."

Sonam found Hrithik charming and was quite okay romancing him on screen. "He is a hot guy, so it's nice when a good looking, charming, funny, nice guy is romancing you even if it is on screen. It feels good and it was fun," the actress said. Sonam had great time working with Hrithik and she is open to work with the actor again. "I would love to work with him in future. I really liked the song and I wanted to do it. My family had a really long association with T-Series and so it was amazing. I think it's a very cool song," she added.

Sonam Kapoor will next be seen opposite Salman Khan in Sooraj Barjatya's Prem Ratan Dhaan Payo feels that the presence of the Dabangg actor will ensure a good opening at box office. "The film stars Salman Khan and I am sure it's going to open (with) ridiculous figures. But you hope it does well for the producers. And I am doing another film with Fox so it better do well. I work really hard (for the films I do)," she said, adding, "I don't even remember what numbers my films do because I really don't think about it too much. I think one film Ranjahnna and then Bhaag Milkha Bhaag has done Rs 100 crores."

As per reports, Sonam will also be part of Homi Adajania's Hindi remake of Hollywood hit The Fault in Our Stars . Deepika Padukone's name was also rumoured to be considered for the same role. Reacting to the reports, Sonam said, "I guess you are talking about some other actor, why do people get confused. For now I am doing just two films. They are Prem Ratan Dhaan Payo and a film with Neeraja (Bhanot), both are with Fox...So I am set for the next one year at least, after that God knows," she said.

Neerja Bhanot is an upcoming biographical film directed by Ram Madhvani, wherein Sonam will be playing the role of the late senior flight attendant who saved 360 lives on Pan Am flight when it was hijacked in Karachi in 1986. Neerja at 23 became the youngest and first woman recipient of the prestigious Ashok Chakra award.

Patna, Jun 27: As Sushant Singh Rajput’s family tries to come to terms with his loss, they have decided to honour his legacy and celebrate his passion for cinema, science and sports.

In an emotional statement shared on Saturday, the Bollywood actor’s family remembered him as a “free-spirited” person who worked hard to turn his dreams into reality.

“He was free-spirited, talkative and incredibly bright. He was curious about just everything. He dreamed without restraints, and chased those dreams with the heart of a lion. He smiled generously. He was the pride and inspiration of the family,” the statement read.

Rajput, 34, known for films like Kai Po Che!, MS Dhoni: The Untold Story and Chhichhore, was found dead in his Bandra apartment on June 14, sending shockwaves in the film industry and elsewhere.

The family said that the actor’s untimely demise has created an irreparable void in their lives.

“We can’t bring ourselves to accept that we wouldn’t get to hear his easy laughs anymore. That we wouldn’t see his sparkling eyes again. That we wouldn’t hear his endless rants about science again. His loss has created a permanent, glaring void in the family that will never be filled.”

Thanking his admirers for being a constant support as they try and recover from the loss, the family added that Rajput, “truly loved and cherished every single one of his fans.”

The actor, who made the storybook transition from Patna boy to television and then the starry lights of the Hindi film industry, was the youngest of five siblings and is survived by his father and four sisters. His mother had passed away in 2002 when he was a young teen.

To honour his memory and legacy, the family has decided to set up Sushant Singh Rajput Foundation (SSRF) that will support young talents in cinema, science and sports.

His childhood home in Rajiv Nagar, Patna, will be turned into a memorial, where all his personal memorabilia and belongings, that include thousands of books, his Meade 14’’ LX-600 telescope, flight-simulator, will be on display for his fans and admirers.

The actor’s family, who used to fondly call him Gulshan, will also maintain his social media accounts as legacy accounts to keep his memories alive.

Rajput started his acting career with television after dropping out from Delhi Technological University in the early 2000s. He was one of the few talents to have made a successful transition to movies.

The actor made his Bollywood debut in 2013 with Kai Po Che!. In past seven years, he had featured in a number of hits including blockbusters Neeraj Pandey’s MS Dhoni: The Untold Story and Chhichhore by Nitesh Tiwari.

Tiwari’s 2019 hit was Rajput’s last theatrical release.

On Thursday, it was announced that Dil Bechara, which is the actor’s last movie he shot for, will premiere on Disney + Hotstar on July 24.
