What Shraddha said

Shraddha Kapoor was first seen in Teen Patti that starred Amitabh Bachchan in a lead role.

During the interview, Shraddha said how it was not very pleasant when she landed on set to shoot her first film. She shared, “I remember on the second or third day, I had a breakdown and told my mom I didn't want to go back, and I didn't understand this world since I had never AD'ed on a film set and was just 20 or 21. People were not always very nice cause if you were a 'somebody', you would be suddenly spoken to in a different way, and if you were a nobody, you would be treated like that. I could see all this and felt sad about it. My first film felt far more challenging than my second, where I was more confident and realised that if someone doesn't know something and is a little lost, you have to be kind to them.”
