Vedaa
starring
John
Abraham
and
Sharvari
has
received
a
mixed
response
from
the
critics
and
has
taken
a
dull
opening
at
the
box
office.
However,
the
actors
are
getting
good
reviews
for
their
performance,
and
apart
from
the
leads,
even
the
supporting
actors
have
grabbed
our
attention.
One
of
them
is
Kshitij
Chauhan
who
plays
a
baddie
in
the
film.

Filmibeat
interacted
with
Kshitij
and
spoke
to
him
about
the
response,
experience
of
working
with
John
and
Sharvari
and
more…

What
response
are
you
getting
for
your
performance
in
Vedaa?

So
yes,
the
film
is
out
now
and
I’ve
been
getting
some
great
reviews
and
responses
for
my
performance
in
the
film.
I
think
as
an
actor,
when
you’re
playing
an
antagonist
role
and
you
really
want
people
to
hate
that
character
because
then
only
you
feel
that
as
an
actor,
your
job
is
accomplished,
your
job’s
done.
So
yes,
people
are
hating
my
character,
so
I
think
the
job’s
done.
It
all
feels
great
and
surreal
right
now
and
I
love
the
fact
that
people
are
talking
about
the
performance
and
people
are
loving
the
work
that
I’ve
done.

How
was
the
experience
of
working
with
John
Abraham
and
Sharvari?

Working
with
John
Sir
and
Sharvari
was
great.
It
was
a
lovely
experience
and
I
think
I
couldn’t
have
asked
for
better
co-actors
than
this
for
my
first
film
and
I’m
a
big
John
Abraham
fan.
I
used
to
have
his
posters
when
I
was
a
kid
and
getting
to
work
with
him
in
my
first
film
is
like
a
dream
come
true
and
he’s
the
sweetest.
He’s
so
grounded,
he’s
so
genuine
and
he’s
so
considerate
about
everyone.
I
mean,
it
didn’t
feel
like
I’m
meeting
him
for
the
first
time
and
he’s
a
superstar.
I
had
a
great
time
working
with
him
and
with
Sharvari
as
well.
We
used
to
talk
about
the
fact
that
this
year
is
going
to
be
hers,
her
film
Munjya
was
coming,
then

Vedaa
was
there
and
we
used
to
talk
about
the
craft,
we
used
to
talk
about
performances
and
acting.

There’s
a
scenes
where
you
have
to
beat
up
Sharvari.
How
much
nervous
you
were
to
do
the
scene?

Yeah,
so
that
scene
with
Sharvari
was
one
of
the
most
difficult
scenes
in
the
film
for
me.
We
had
a
word
about
it.
I
was
like,
you
know,
I’ll
go
all
out.
I
would
have
to
get
that
anger,
that
frustration.
I
have
to
like,
get
into
that
zone,
and
she
was
also
very
receptive.
She
was
like,
yes,
I
should
feel
that
humiliation
that
the
character
should
feel
because
that’s
the
point
where
she
understands
that
she
has
to
stand
up
for
herself.
So
that
actually
is
one
of
the
most
difficult
scenes.
But
then,
as
I
said,
the
bonding
between
Sharvari
was
great
and
we
had
rehearsed
that
scene,
and
I
was
like,
I
can’t
be
judging
my
character.
I
just
need
to
do
it.
So
I
will
do
it.
So,
that
was
my
driving
force
in
that
scene.

In
this
film,
you
play
a
villain,
but
what
kind
of
roles
do
you
look
forward
to?

Yes,
I
started
off
my
silver
screen
career
with
a
villainous
character
and
in
future
I
am
not
apprehensive
about
playing
any
character
as
long
as
it
is
an
important
one;
a
substantial
part.
I
am
a
musician
also;
I
am
a
drummer.
So,
I
would
love
to
play
a
musician
character,
I
would
love
to
be
a
part
of
a
film
where
I
can
show
my
drumming
talent.
I
really
want
that
Bollywood
makes
a
Whiplash
remake
and
I
am
there
in
the
film.
So,
basically
any
film
where
my
music
talent
can
also
come
in.
I
have
also
played
cricket
professionally.
So,
I
would
love
to
play
a
cricketer
on
screen
as
well
and
I
love
the
Indian
Army.
So,
I
would
love
to
play
an
army
officer
as
well.
So,
to
sum
it
up,
I
would
love
to
play
a
musician
or
a
cricketer
or
an
army
guy
character
that
would
be
like
great
fun
because
I
love
those
things
personally.
So,
it
would
be
great
if
I
get
to
play
those
characters.

Tell
us
something
about
your
upcoming
projects…

Yes,
there
are
a
couple
of
projects
in
the
pipeline
that
I
am
considering.
One
is
a
web
show
and
one
is
a
film.
But
they
are
at
a
very
initial
stage
so
I
can’t
disclose
much
about
it.
So
right
now
I
am
just
focusing
on
Vedaa.
I
actually
wanted
my
film
to
come
first
and
then
decide
what
should
I
do
and
what
should
I
not
do
because
I
want
my
filmography
to
be
in
a
certain
way.
So
yes,
right
now
I
am
focusing
on
Vedaa
and
in
background
some
things
are
happening.
So,
once
the
official
statement
is
out,
I
am
sure
everyone
would
know
about
it.
