Actress
Parineeti
Chopra,
a
self-confessed
foodie,
says
during
the
filming
of
her
upcoming
film
Daawat-e-Ishq
she
and
co-star
Aditya
Roy
Kapur
bonded
over
their
love
for
food.
The
Habib
Faisal-directed
film
Daawat-e-Ishq
is
a
love
story
between
a
Hyderabadi
girl
named
Gulrez
and
Tariq,
a
Lucknawi
cook
who
can
charm
anyone
with
his
biryani
and
kebabs.
"I
am
a
foodie
of
another
level.
After
working
with
Aditya
in
this
film
I
realised
that
it
is
only
him
who
can
compete
with
me
when
it
comes
to
eating.
Both
of
us
love
food
and
we
would
devour
plates
in
minutes.
In
this
film
I
got
to
eat
so
much
and
I
think
this
film
is
tailor
made
for
me," Parineeti
said
during
the
music
launch
of
the
movie.
The
film
has
been
mostly
shot
in
Lucknow,
besides
Hyderabad
and
Mumbai.
The
25-year-old
actress
says
both
Aditya
and
herself
are
at
their
fattest
best
in
the
film,
thanks
to
their
binging
on
local
delicacies
in
Lucknow.
"I
think
we
are
at
our
fattest
best
in
this
film.
Me,
Aditya
and
Anupam
Kher
used
to
have
meals
together
all
the
time.
Anupam
sir
has
lived
in
Lucknow
for
some
time
and
he
knew
many
eateries
and
we
would
order
from
there," she
said.
Daawat-e-Ishq
is
the
second
collaboration
between
Parineeti
and
Faisal
after
previously
working
together
in
Ishaqzaade.
Just
like
the
2012
film,
the
actress
plays
a
Muslim
girl
in
this
upcoming
film
but
she
says
the
similarity
ends
there.
"I
think
as
an
actor
you
always
want
something
different
everytime.
I
hope
that
I
am
offered
something
interesting.
Though
I
have
played
a
Muslim
girl
before
in
a
film
directed
by
Habib
sir
but
this
film
is
different.
It
is
not
a
repetition.
My
body
language
is
different,
my
styling
is
different.
I
speak
in
a
Dakhini
accent
which
I
don't
think
any
actress
has
done
before,"
she
said.
Daawat-e-Ishq
has
been
produced
by
Yash
Raj
Fims
and
will
release
on
September
5.
