Actor Aditya Roy Kapur, who gearing up for the release of the romantic comedy Daawat-e-Ishq, says he is yet to discover love in real life.
The film has been directed by National Award winner Habib Faisal and also stars actress Parineeti Chopra. Aditya plays a cook named Tariq who is from Lucknow, while Parineeti is a sales representative from Hyderabad in the movie, releasing on September 19.
"I have been in a relationship which I thought was love but it was not. I am still discovering love. Hopefully, I will meet the right person one day. But I am not looking for it actively. If it has to happen, it will," Aditya said. Aditya is reportedly dating his Aashiqui 2 co-star Shraddha Kapoor.
Aditya believes that media focusses more on his personal life than his career.
Talking about his character in the film, Aditya says he had to read up a lot to prepare for his role.
Aditya will be seen in a new look in the film as he will be sporting a crew cut with surma in his eyes. "As an actor I feel one should use his look to trick people. My director wanted me to adapt this look as he felt the audience needed to see a new character on screen."
"Post Aashiqui 2 I wanted to see how the industry reacted to my performance. That took about two months and then I waited for a few good projects. Before signing Daawat-e-Ishq I came across few more offers but none of them interested me. This film has a soul and I went for it. And to sign and start shooting for the film took another few months."
"Actually, the thought never occurred to us. I can't just call up Siddharth and ask him to make a film where all of us will be part of. We are all a close knit family. Vidya Balan (Siddharth's wife) is an excellent actress, we all look up to her. Every Sunday we meet for lunch whenever we are in Mumbai and we all talk about several things."
"I am happy that post Aashiqui 2, I am getting opportunities to work with big names. Life has given me a chance. I never looked at my failures. I wish to continue my journey doing better films in coming years."
