Bollywood actress Shraddha Kapoor’s last release, Stree 2, has been a major success. Now, in a new interview with Cosmopolitan, Kapoor revealed how she had a difficult time in the initial days of her career, when she had just bagged her first-ever acting role in Teen Patti.
Kapoor said she had a breakdown on the second or third day of shooting, where she felt like she ‘didn’t understand this world.’
During the interview, Kapoor said it wasn’t very pleasant when she arrived on set to shoot her first movie. She said, “I remember on the second or third day, I had a breakdown and told my mom I didn’t want to go back, and I didn’t understand this world since I had never AD’ed on a film set and was just 20 or 21. People were not always very nice cause if you were a ‘somebody’, you would be suddenly spoken to in a different way, and if you were a nobody, you would be treated like that. I could see all this and felt sad about it. My first film felt far more challenging than my second, where I was more confident and realized that if someone doesn’t know something and is a little lost, you have to be kind to them.”
Meanwhile, in Teen Patti, Shraddha Kapoor played a college student named Aparna Khanna. It tanked at the box office. Kapoor later shot to fame with the romantic musical Aashiqui 2, which released in 2013.
