Aditya Roy Kapur Opens Up About Doing Solo Films, Salman Khan & More!
The OK Jaanu actor in a recent interview spoke about why he doesn’t want to restrict himself to doing solo films and even got nostalgic about his first meeting with Salman Khan.
Aditya Roy Kapur has been a part of several multistarrers films in the past until Aashiqui 2 happened which proved to be a milestone in his career. However, the actor says that he is still open to doing ensemble films.
In an interview with Catch News, the OK Jaanu actor was quoted saying, "I wouldn't want to restrict myself to merely solo films. I am open to multi-starrers but the character offered to me should have some substance. If the character adds onto my experience as an actor in this profession then, why not?"
In the same conversation, Aditya even spoke about Salman Khan, the failure of his last film Fitoor, his take on live-in relationships and his chemistry with Shraddha Kapoor. Read on to know more about it.
His First Meeting With Salman Khan During His VJ Days
Aditya was quoted saying, "The first time I met Salman Khan was when I was a VJ. It was my 19th birthday and we were waiting to interview him for Salaam-E-Ishq. He was supposed to come to interact with the team and we were waiting for a while since he came much later. I remember being very nervous that day as everyone around was like 'be careful', ' he would do this' and they were trying to psyche me out."
"I was very nervous while interviewing him as well, but when he got to know it's my birthday he organised an impromptu party. We all were sitting near his van, eating some food and chilling over a few drinks. I remember bringing in my 19th birthday with Salman Khan and of course, after than we worked together in London Dreams. He took care of Rannvijay (Singh) and me like an elder brother and guided us through the shoot. The experience of working on London Dreams is one that I would never forget. That's how our friendship started and it feels very nice that he is still looking out for me."
The Failure Of His Last Film ‘Fitoor’
He further added, "I signed Fitoor because of the story, not because it had a successful actor like Katrina Kaif, and I felt the star-cast was apt for the film. I think a film flops because of various reasons. Film-making is a combination of many things and many things can go wrong. It is a very complicated process and there are different stages you encounter while making a film. A film could flop when you go wrong at any step."
Aditya’s Take On Live-In Relationships
"I think live-in relationship works for a few people and it doesn't for others. I have never done it, so I can't speak about the pros and cons. I don't know if that will work for me or not, but I am definitely not close to the idea. For an arrangement like that to succeed, one needs to have the right feeling for the right person. I believe in the institution of marriage, but I am not ready for marriage either."
His Chemistry With Shraddha Kapoor In OK Jaanu
In the same interview, he further added, "Both Shraddha and I are really excited for this film, because it is in a complete different place from Aashiqui 2. We feel happy that we are not repeating ourselves in this film as it is a fresh subject and tackles a different issue. We share friendship off screen and we have tried to ex-plore that comfort to be translated on screen."
Currently, Aditya Roy Kapur is busy promoting his upcoming film OK Jaanu which is slated to release on 13th January. The film is an official remake of Mani Ratnam's OK Kanmani.
