In a candid interview, Shahid and Sonakshi talk about being a part of the world of Prabhu Dheva and the importance of pyaar and maar…
We have always seen you in soft, romantic roles and here we see a complete different avatar of you. What made you go for this transition and how difficult was it to switch?
Shahid: I always say that I get comfortable when I am given something which I feel uncomfortable about and feel very uncomfortable when I am given something which I am very comfortable about.
I don’t like to repeat myself and always like to try new things and different kinds of roles. So, yeah when Prabhu Sir came to me with this film and offered me this mavali character, which is very different from what I have done in the past, it felt great.
He offered me the world of Prabhu Dheva which I have seen and loved, but never been a part of, or done something which is even similar in any way. His world is very different. We all have seen his films like Rowdy Rathore and Wanted and we know that world. And honestly, its the kind of faith that he had because he has worked with extremely established stars, action heroes like Salman Sir or Akshay Sir and this is the first time that he went to an actor from the younger generation and he said, “I think you can do it because I saw you in Kaminey and feel that you have the personality to carry it off. So, I felt it was a great opportunity and I really did not have any doubts that I wanted to try it.
Sonakshi, you have always been a part of entertainment/masala films barring Lootera. Is it a conscious decision on your part to do this?
Sonakshi: Yeah, I consciously choose the films I do because I enjoy being a aprt of them and enjoy watching them even as an audience. I love to watch these kind of films and full-on, commercial, entertaining. I want to go to a theater and hoot, whistle and clap. And that’s what entertainment is and I thoroughly enjoy being a part of it. That’s my only reason to be.
Parbhu Dheva and Shahid are both great dancers. How daunting was it to dance with them?
Sonakshi: Do you mean to say I am not a good dancer? (Chuckles). I completely agree with you. I was slightly nervous at first when I realised that I was going to be dancing with these men. I think we started off with a really nice song . It was in my space and Prabhu Sir’s style of dancing. I learn’t how to dance so freely from Prabhu Sir, so yeah, slightly nervous at first, but the song was very good and peppy and energetic so we automatically got into the zone and then when I realised, I was matching steps with him, I was very excited and happy.
How was your experience working with Prabhu Dheva?
