When nervous, Sonam Kapoor talks non-stop whereas her co-star Shahid Kapoor is focussed and quiet.
The chalk-and-cheese pair will be seen together on screen for the first time in debutant director Pankaj Kapur's Mausam. Here, Shahid and Sonam talk about their friendship, chemistry and bonding. Read on...
Sonam on Shahid:
Somebody once asked me what was the one thing I didn't know about Shahid. I said, 'I know everything!' Opposites generally create intense chemistry. There are more chances of fireworks when different people are together than similar personalities. I like the fact that Shahid is hard-working, he is a gentleman and treats me well. What I don't like about him is that he is too much of a perfectionist.
Usually you have to warm up to your co-star while doing scenes, but with Shahid it happened right from day one. We are still in touch and we know most stuff about each other. We haven't spoken about our friendship and it was presumed that we aren't friends. It is a quiet kind of friendship. We both understand what is happening in our lives. We know what films we are doing next, where we are going to be in the next two to three years.
I rarely make friends in the film industry and Shahid is one of them. He likes talkative girls. We discuss our personal lives but it is better if we keep it to ourselves.
Shahid on Sonam
She has a very vulnerable and innocent quality about her, that is essential for a love story like Mausam. She has an Indian face and I find girls with Indian faces very attractive. We spent about two years together during the making of the film, and have become good friends now. In fact, she is my 3 am friend.
We went through a lot of ups and downs during the shoot. Since dad was directing, there were many days when I would get stressed out but Sonam was always there to comfort me. When we were shooting the climax, which had lots of emotional and dramatic sequences, she would be talking non-stop before every shot. I don't talk that much! She does that when she is nervous. It is fun to be with someone who is different, otherwise it gets boring.
Family is her priority and I admire that quality in her. She loves gossiping and is always interested in knowing who I am dating, but I don't tell her anything because I know she will blurt it out. I don't trust her on that front! She keeps asking me about my personal life and I lie to her!
