What happens when you put a Jamshedpur boy and a Mumbai girl in the same room and ask them to drop the script? You get this.
On this episode of On Set Off Script, host Suren Sundaram sits down with Adarsh Gourav and Shanaya Kapoor for one of the most candid conversations you’ll see from two actors in Bollywood right now.
From Adarsh crying on Zee TV as a kid who just wanted to sing, to Shanaya talking about a film falling apart before it even began, this one goes places most interviews don’t.
They talk about:
- Growing up worlds apart and somehow crossing paths
- PR safe answers vs. the actual truth
- What it’s like to spend a month in a pool shooting a survival film (and why they couldn’t even leave to use the bathroom)
- Auditioning for MC Sher, rapping on set, and animal studies as acting prep
- Panic, self-doubt, and figuring it out in real time
- The Kapoor name and what it actually means to carry it
