The Aashiqui 2 actor said he was confident to get a chance
Having started his film journey with supporting parts, Aditya Roy Kapur’s career took a 360 degree turn post the success of his solo-hero movie Aashiqui 2 and the actor says he was always confident of getting his big break as a lead in Bollywood.
During the initial years of his career, the 28-year-old actor played minor roles in films like London Dreams, Action Replayy, Guzaarish and also earned praise for his role in Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani.
But it was Mohit Suri’s romantic drama Aashiqui 2 that introduced Aditya as a lead hero in Bollywood.
“I was never disheartened that I did not get solo hero movies. At the end of the day everyone wants a commercially viable hero. So I could not blame them they did not to see me in that space in order to give me an opportunity,” Aditya told PTI.
“Even when I was doing supporting roles I always had this belief that one day the opportunity to play a lead would come my way. I was confident that I would get my chance as well,” he added.
‘Aashiqui 2′ was one of the highest grossing Hindi films of 2013 and Aditya, who played an alcohol addict singer in it, says people’s perception about him as an actor has changed completely after the movie.
“I am looked in completely different light… as a solo hero. A film like Aashiqui 2 needed to happen for people to see me in the capacity of a hero. I am getting a lot of opportunities as people have recognised the potential in me,” the actor said.
Aditya is awaiting the release of Daawat-e-Ishq, his second film as a lead hero, in which he has donned a Lucknowi chef’s avatar and will be seen romancing Parineeti Chopra.
