This business of film-making is such that you can’t tell what the outcome is going to be. So now I have learnt to follow my instinct. I have made some film choices in the past very deliberately but I don’t think those choices worked for me. My choices also depend a lot on instinct, there is no fixed formula. I had not done an action film before Shamshera, but even the story of the film really appealed to me. How I have selected my films depends on what time of my life it’s come to me, the director, the story. Besides the novelty aspect, what other boxes did this film tick for you? No two roles of yours have been the same, and Shamshera, of course, looks different from anything you have done so far. Ranbir Kapoor with Vaani Kapoor in Shamshera, releasing in theatres tomorrow I hope I can do it for another 20, or even 30 years (smiles). That is overwhelming for sure.īut a film release is part of the job. The personal news of becoming a parent is not comparable to anything else. Does it feel a little overwhelming at times or do you look at 2022 as a gift that keeps on giving? This has, of course, been a great year personally for you so far, set to be crowned by two films releasing within two months of each other.

Those thoughts are there, but I am also excited to share the film with the audience. Of course, I do feel a little bit of nervous anxiety as to what the audience is going to say, how they will feel about a movie like this.

But before and after that, I have just been working on Shamshera and Brahmastra. Yes, I had a personal setback in the loss of my father (Rishi Kapoor) and then we were all hit by the pandemic for a year-and-a-half. It’s been four years since Sanju released, but I have been working through all these four years. We have all worked very hard on Shamshera and it’s a mix of many emotions that I am feeling right now. And I feel that the emotions are similar to what I felt just before the release of my debut film Saawariya. You know, I have been talking about this with a lot of people, to Alia and everybody else. What are the emotions like? Is there an emotion more predominant than the rest? Having a theatrical release after the two years of the pandemic is in itself a big deal, and for you it’s a film release after four years.
