Shahid Kapoor, who will soon be seen in the action film Bloody Daddy, recently completed 20 years in the movie business. The actor, in a recent chat, spoke about his only collaboration with director Sooraj Barjatya, in the film Vivah. 

In a chat with Radio Nasha, Shahid said that while doing Vivah, 바카라œHalf the time, I used to be like 바카라˜What am I doing? What is happening? What is going on?바카라 Shahid continued, 바카라œI was a big city kid. I wasn바카라™t getting half the things that were happening. I was like jal (water)? What is this? And then we were doing songs which were sung in an older man바카라™s voice. I was wondering how will I do this?바카라

Shahid shared that he had huge respect for Sooraj, and so he decided to follow whatever direction he was given. 바카라œI just followed it. I said, 바카라˜You tell me what to do and I바카라™ll do it.바카라™ He would tell me 바카라˜Trust me Shahid, just do this바카라™ and I did. I did it with all my honesty,바카라 he shared.

Shahid recalled that back in 2006, when Vivah released, 바카라œa lot of cinema that was doing well was that front-footed college, young, Dharma and Yash Raj, that was doing really well. He went completely reverse.바카라 He said that Sooraj made a 바카라œvery conservative film about a very core audience in our country which hadn바카라™t been addressed for the longest period of time, and he knew that that was his comfort zone.바카라 He continued, 바카라œThat was his playing ground. He went back to his playing ground and he said, 바카라˜this is what I am going to do바카라™ and he made it purely. He did not push any tropes in there which could be commercial or which were working at that time.바카라

In a previous interview with Pinkvilla, Sooraj had shared that Shahid was completely unaware of this world when he worked in the film. 바카라œI always tease him because in Vivah, he understood nothing about arranged marriage,바카라 he had said. Sooraj recalled an incident and shared, 바카라œShadi ho rahi hai uski climax mein he said main pagdi kyu pehnu? Maine kaha pehnni padegi. Aise rooth gaya. Fir apni shaadi mein sab kia usne (Then in the climax for his wedding scene, he asked why should I wear a pagdi? I said you will have to, then he got upset. He then did everything at his own wedding).바카라

Vivah also starred Amrita Rao, Anupam Kher, Alok Nath, Seema Biswas, Samir Soni
