They say, good things come to those who wait. For Vaani Kapoor, this seems to be working, slowly but steadily. The actor, who made her Bollywood debut with Shuddh Desi Romance, and then went on to feature in Befikre, is gearing up for War alongside Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff. Despite featuring in a limited number of films, she knows the path she wants to chart, and admirably, isn’t perturbed by the fast-paced nature of the movie business.
In an interview you had said that you grew up in a farmhouse. Tell us about the time.
My father ran an NGO, a lush, green space across acres of land in New Delhi’s Gujranwala Town. My sister and I grew up with a host of animals such as dogs, cats, monkeys, rabbits and ducks. Till about 14 years, that was our life. Whenever friends came home, we offered them a mini zoo tour (laughs).
Why did a girl who loved her life back home turn to Mumbai?
Destiny had its plans. Even as a kid when I would think about career options, nothing apart from acting would click me. I was fortunate enough to meet Shanoo Sharma (casting director, Yash Raj Films), get a chance to audition, and eventually be associated with the production house.
Did you sense hostility when you first came to the glamour industry or were you accepted with open arms?
I am still trying to make it on my own, to get good projects, and that’s all that I expect from the industry. It will be amazing if I find some friends along the way, but I am not looking for a family.
