Imran
Khan
calls
Sonam
Kapoor
a
drama
queen
in
real
life.
He
also
believes
that
she
is
a
far
better
actor
in
real
life
than
in
reel
life.
All
in
good
humour
though.
I
don't
know
whether
this
is
perfectly
true
or
not.
However,
during
a
conversation
with
her,
you
do
realise
that
she
is
one
of
the
most
expressive
people
from
the
film
fraternity.
No,
it
is
not
just
the
case
of
emotions
oozing
out.
But
Sonam
is
someone
who
hears
you
out
and
then
comes
up
with
her
own
take
on
the
state
of
affairs.
Of
course
with
an
expressive
touch
to
it.
You
soon
realise
that
Imran
is
right.
One
can
be
rest
assured
that
the
moment
you
press
'off
the
records'
button,
Sonam
makes
for
an
even
brilliant
copy.
However,
as
of
now,
presenting
the
readers
an
'on
the
records'
version
of
the
conversation
that
happened
between
her
and
this
correspondent.
I
Hate
Luv
Storys
has
used
all
the
cliches
of
classic
love
stories
and
presented
itself
differently.
An
attempt
to
get
some
new
age
story
telling
here?
Well,
the
only
thing
constant
in
life
is
change.
The
tolerance
level
also
changes
with
time
and
so
do
audience.
One
has
to
either
change
with
times
or
let
other
people
do
things
differently.
This
is
why
newer
directors
like
Punit
are
coming
in.
A
film
like
I
Hate
Luv
Storys
or
Aisha
are
different
and
yet
so
commercial,
something
that
audience
will
definitely
enjoy.
This
is
not
a
new
trend
though.
Look
at
films
starring
my
dad.
He
did
films
like
Woh
Saat
Din
and
Saheb
which
were
not
masala
films
but
they
still
did
well,
mainly
because
they
were
good
films.
Well,
I
Hate
Luv
Storys
did
turn
out
to
be
as
'masala'
as
it
gets,
what
with
its
emotional
upheavals.
(Smiles)
That
was
the
intent
of
the
film.
It
was
meant
to
be
that
perfect
outing
where
there
was
going
to
be
conflict.
It
had
its
own
ups
and
downs.
Your
own
career
has
now
seen
an
up
with
IHLS
though
it
was
relatively
down
after
Saawariya
and
Delhi-6,
both
of
which
failed
at
the
box
office.
Firstly,
neither
Saawariya
nor
Delhi-6
had
failed.
It's
all
a
media
perception.
Please
checks
figures
and
facts,
both
of
them
did
recover
money
eventually.
Secondly,
when
I
look
back,
it
is
so
disheartening
because
all
it
takes
is
one
write
up
to
pan
a
film.
They
don't
realise
that
there
is
so
much
that
goes
into
the
making
of
a
film.
No
one
wants
to
do
any
'chaalu
kaam'
in
the
industry.
Each
one
of
us
wants
to
come
up
with
a
good
film
and
make
it
work.
Ok,
but
I
am
sure
you
would
have
expected
much
more
from
these
films.
Wasn't
it
heartbreaking
since
expectations
were
not
met?
Films
don't
fail;
it's
the
budget
that
fails.
Saawariya
and
Delhi-6
may
not
have
been
blockbusters
and
could
have
been
better
but
I
am
very
proud
of
these
films.
I
made
some
great
relationships
due
to
these
films.
I
don't
carry
any
heartbreak
whatsoever.
Also,
I
don't
believe
in
looking
backwards.
Well,
your
future
does
look
exciting,
what
with
Aisha,
Thank
You
and
Mausam
being
next
in
line.
Quite
some
work
happening
here?
Yeah,
I
don't
have
a
personal
life
currently
(smiles).
But
that's
ok.
I
am
fortunate
to
have
some
good
films
coming
next.
I
hope
audience
too
likes
them
all.
I
am
playing
a
variety
of
roles
and
I
wish
to
continue
working
and
acting
all
my
life.
I
strive
to
do
better
with
each
of
my
outings.
...and
aim
to
make
a
march
towards
that
top
slot?
See,
quite
a
few
actors
say
that
they
want
to
be
number
one
and
all.
Some
say
that
they
are
in
the
profession
only
for
money.
However,
I
don't
want
to
be
No.
1
or
No.
10.
Yes,
if
something
good
happens
then
that's
a
great
plus
point
but
I
am
not
working
to
achieve
that.
I
am
here
because
I
wish
to
be
remembered
for
my
work.
One
hopes
that
you
do
get
remembered,
just
as
is
the
case
with
Imran
who
is
seeing
widespread
appreciation
coming
his
way
ever
since
the
release
of
IHLS.
Really,
I
have
never
met
a
person
like
Imran.
I
am
happy
for
him.
He
carries
with
him
the
kind
of
integrity
that
I
have
seldom
seen
in
many.
There
is
nothing
grey
about
him
as
he
is
very
correct.
He
tells
you
what
he
feels
in
his
heart.
He
is
not
someone
who
takes
anything
that
you
say
in
a
wrong
light.
You
seem
to
be
mighty
impressed
with
him.
And
that's
because
he
is
very
hard
working
and
honest.
He
will
be
100%
successful
because
of
the
kind
of
person
he
is.
He
will
always
be
known
as
a
good
man.
