Actress Shraddha Kapoor, who is playing a stylish, sophisticated
Delhi girl in her forthcoming 'Half Girlfriend', says she is very
tomboyish in real life and that simple things of life makes her happy.
She was present here on Monday, with co-star Arjun Kapoor,
director Mohit Suri and author Chetan Bhagat, to re-launch the book cover with
the picture of Arjun and Shraddha on it.
Asked about what is the similarity between her and the character
Ria that she is playing in the film, Shraddha told media, ' I think like
Riya Somani. I also feel happy in simple things of life, I like simplicity.
On the other hand I am quite tomboyish in real life which is quite different
from the character.
'In fact that is why I had to learn certain body language
and style of a Delhi girl of high society that Riya comes from.'
As the songs of the film are getting popular, Suri, thanking
the listeners, said: 'I think the credit goes to the good story, written
by Chetan. If I do not have an emotional story, I cannot intensify that with
music, so a good story plays the important role here.'
Asked about what made Bhagat collaborate with Suri for the
film, the author said: 'He has a great understanding of emotion and that
was needed for this story. I had an eye on Mohit's work, his music and how beautifully
he weaves it with the story for films. He was my only choice when I went to
him with the book to make a film.'
Produced by Ekta Kapoor, the film is releasing on May 19.
