Ranbir Kapoor’s much-awaited film Shamshera with Vaani Kapoor is all set for release. While Ranbir gets busy with its promotional campaigns, he cannot forget the golden words told by his late father Rishi Kapoor on being part of the film. A report on indianexpress.com talked about how Ranbir Kapoor felt shooting for Shamshera was one of the biggest nightmares that he has had. We take reference from that story for our write up here.
Rishi Kapoor who never sweet-talks did not mince words when he warned Ranbir Kapoor about Shamshera director Karan Malhotra being a tough task master. He had told Ranbir, ‘Tu bahut pachtayega. Karan Malhotra bahut hard taskmaster hai. Bahut saare takes leta hai. Bada tadpata hai (You’ll suffer. Karan is a hard taskmaster, he demands multiple takes). So, be ready’!
Well, this is exactly what happened, and Ranbir recollects this now. Ranbir also went on to say that, “Working on this film was a nightmare. It was the most physically draining film for me, Vaani and all of us. We were covered in dust. We were shooting in peak summer in Mumbai wearing woollen clothes. I also had a thick beard. We were supposed to do action. So, it was really hard.”
Well, best of luck Ranbir!! May all your hard work pay off!!
