In a candid interview Shraddha Kapoor reveals her inner thoughts and says that if someone were to betray her, he would go straight to hell, like Love Ka The End? " Cheating is a definite no-no. Her man has to be all his or never mind!" she states emphatically.

One man who is completely hers is daddy dearest Shakti Kapoor who has been so happy post Aashiqui 2 that he can't stop smiling. "He did a cameo in my first film, Teen Patti. I was so nervous that I goofed up a couple of takes till he put me at ease," she reminisces.

Growing up, did it ever bother her that she was the daughter of an onscreen baddie? "No, my dad was both an iconic villain and a popular comedian. So, I could only be proud of him. I loved his Crime Master Go Go act in Andaz Apna Apna and Raja Babu's Nandu," she says.

She must be equally proud of her aunt, Padmini Kolhapure. Which of her films, if remade, would she like to star in? "I wouldn't dare star in a remake of her films. Maasi was so good. Fortunately my favourite film is Prem Rog and it can't be remade. It is impossible to replicate what Raj Kapoor did with that movie."

From the South to the North, Shraddha has just returned from Kashmir after the first schedule of Vishal Bhardwaj's Haider. Going by recent reports, locals of the Valley are still miffed about Kashmir being passed off as Manali in Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani, and are no longer all right with a Bollywood film crew disrupting their daily lives. And two days ago, the Kashmir schedule of Bhardwaj's film came to a standstill owing to protests by locals.


However, Shraddha is hardly perturbed. "I had been to Ladakh, but this was my first trip to the Valley and it was like being in paradise. I was mesmerised by the beauty of the Valley and did not feel any bad vibes. I can promise that in our film Kashmir will be Kashmir. I'm playing a local girl and reached a day earlier to observe the locals and their unique sing-song way of speaking."

she is happy romancing Siddharth onscreen, but she has also signed Gabbar with Akshay Kumar, who is much older than the actress. Ask Shraddha about it and pat comes the reply: "I've idolised Akshay for years. Moreover, I found the script of Gabbar so entertaining that there was no way I would have let the project go. "

Aashiqui 2 is one of the biggest hits of the year. So why hasn't she signed another film with Aditya Roy Kapur? "We haven't been offered any films together after Aashiqui 2," she retorts. And is Aditya more than a costar? "We're friends. Period," she laughs.

So, what is the way to Shraddha's heart? "Just be honest and true to yourself," she says.
