Deeksha Sethi: I Don't Feel Overshadowed by Armaan Jain

Deeksha is soon to make her Bollywood debut with Lekar Hum Deewana Dil opposite Armaan.

Highlights

  • Actress Deeksha Seth is soon going to make her Bollywood debut with Lekar Hum Deewana Dil and says that despite her co-star being Armaan Jain - the grandson of late actor-filmmaker Raj Kapoor - she feels secure.
  • Deeksha made her acting debut in the Telugu drama film Vedam in 2010 and went on to feature in quite a few Tamil and Telugu movies like Rajapattai and Wanted.
  • “I don't feel overshadowed at all because it's not like I got to know he is a Kapoor now. If in the movie, I didn't have a good role then definitely I would've been insecure. When you see the movie you'll see there is a fair division between my and Armaan's work,” Deeksha told IANS in a telephonic interview from Mumbai.
  • Armaan is also the cousin of actors Ranbir, Kareena and Karisma. Deeksha feels that it is obvious for people to be curious about a star kid.
  • "I feel it's normal to have curiosity about someone who comes from a film family. Everyone wants to know what's happening," she added.
  • Lekar Hum Deewana Dil will release on Friday.
  • Co-produced by Eros International and Illuminati Films, the film is directed by Arif Ali.
  • The former Miss India contestant is also excited about delivering dialogues in Hindi.
  • “I look at it as my debut because I am working in my mother tongue. The language has made me more confident rather than my prior experience,” said the actress.
  • Deeksha, who has already signed a two-movie deal with Saif Ali Khan's Illuminati Films, is also willing to take up television assignments.
  • “TV is also okay. TV has some really interesting stuff nowadays. But I am not made for daily soaps. I can't do the same character for years,” she said.
