Shanaya Kapoor on her career and preparation
In a recent interview with news agency PTI Shanaya Kapoor spoke about her hopes as an actor. She said Im an actor I want my films to do well I want the audiences to go in and like it (theatre) should be jam-packed. I want that and that is the dream and thats what Im working towards and that is the aim and motivation. To prepare for her role as Avani Shanaya revisited survival thrillers such as Jaws Crawl and The Meg. She also took part in an unconventional acting exercise with acting coach Atul Mongia.
Speaking about the experience she said Adarsh introduced me to this technique in Atul sirs workshop. At first when I heard it I was like I dont know if this is for me and if I can do it. But I gave it a shot and it really helped. I watched a lot of videos of black panther and that really helped me. I felt the way they moved was graceful sensual charming and confident.
She added My character Avani has that sensual side where you feel a little intimidated and shes just gazing shes not looking at you in a way that you get scared but theres something about her look. As Tu Yaa Main enters its first weekday test the industry will be watching closely to see if word of mouth can improve its box office journey.
