BOLLYWOOD Some Actors Have to Wait to Get Even Considered For Promising Roles: Vaani Kapoor

- Bollywood actress Vaani Kapoor.

Vaani Kapoor has put the failure of Befikre behind her as she has director Sidharth Anand’s film with Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff and Shamshera with Ranbir Kapoor in her kitty.

Vaani Kapoor made her Bollywood debut in 2013 with Sushant Singh Rajput-starrer Shuddh Desi Romance, which earned her critical acclaim though the film didn’t do well at the box office. Three years later, she starred opposite Ranveer Singh in Aditya Chopra’s Befikre, which also did not help her career.

“My patience has finally paid off,” Vaani beams as she sits down for an interview with indianexpr­ess.com.

“I feel blessed as finally my patience has paid off and I didn’t go and do something which could have been a baggage for these films. There are certain filmmakers who look at the kind of work you have been a part of or if you come with a baggage of bad films.

“I believe I have only been lucky that a Karan Malhotra (Shamshera director) and a Siddharth Anand has put their faith in me. I am only thankful to them,” Vaani Kapoor said on the sidelines of the launch of Marks & Spencer’s new summer spring line.

While Vaani has extensivel­y shot for Siddharth’s film, she is right now prepping for Shamshera, which includes workshops and dance rehearsals.

The actress is particular­ly excited about teaming up with Ranbir and heaps praise on him for being a “relaxed and generous” co-star.
