Actress Vaani Kapoor, who will be seen playing a performer in the upcoming film ‘Shamshera’, has praised her co-star Ranbir Kapoor, whom she called a special actor and her personal favourite.
Vaani says: “I play the character of Sona, the most sought after travelling performer of India in the 1800s. I have always chosen roles where my character pivots the script in a certain direction. “I’m thankful to Karan Malhotra for seeing me in this role. He held my hand at every step of the way and guided me to bring Sona to life.”
The film is set to release in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu on July 22. Directed by Karan Malhotra of ‘Agneepath’ fame, the film marks Ranbir’s return to the cinemas after four years since the release of ‘Sanju’.
About her character, Vaani reveals, “Sona has a strong willpower, she’s confident, a go getter yet has her own emotional vulnerabilities. She’s definitely one of the most refreshing characters I have played on screen. I’m amazed teaming up with Ranbir Kapoor – a powerhouse of talent. He’s truly a very special actor and my personal favourite.”
