KHUSH KAPOOR LOVES TO CHAT AND INDULGES IN A HEART-TO-HEART CONVERSATION WITH VEDANSHI PATHAK

- 

Born into a legacy of cinematic icons, Khushi Kapoor's journey into acting seemed almost destined. From a young age, she was captivated by the magic of films, a fascination nurtured by watching her family at work. In this exclusive conversation, Khushi reflects on her path to becoming an actress, sharing candid thoughts on her career, the challenges of showbiz, and the unwavering support of her family. She opens up about finding her footing as a performer, the lessons she has learned from each project, and the profound influence of those closest to her.

All three of your projects, The Archies, Loveyapa and Nadaaniyan, are very different in their own ways.

Each film was an incredibly different experience. Doing one film feels like gaining a lifetime's worth of knowledge in itself. Each director has a very distinct process, so you naturally adapt to the way they like to rehearse, how they dissect a scene, how they want you to practise, and how they approach workshops. Every film requires something different from you, depending on the character, you're asked and expected to explore new things each time. For me, each project has been extremely different, but I've learnt so much from all of them. When I did The Archies, I was really new and quite scared. I approached everything very cautiously and was a bit worried. But as I've continued working, I've realised that I can now contribute more, creatively and collaboratively. I feel more confident giving my inputs and sharing ideas, whereas earlier I was a bit more apprehensive about voicing my thoughts.

Ibrahim Ali Khan and Junaid Khan were both newcomers. What was it like collaborating with them?
