Rachit Singh was recently seen as a Betaal in Aditya Sarpotdar’s Thamma. The film was a part of the Maddock Horror Comedy Universe. But much before making his film debut in the movie, Rachit has been working as an acting coach, who has trained quite a few actors. One of them is Shanaya Kapoor, who made her acting debut earlier this year in Santosh Singh’s Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan, in which she was cast opposite Vikrant Massey.
In an exclusive chat with Bollywood Hungama, Rachit said that the world will see Shanaya’s true talent in her upcoming projects. “You will now watch Shanaya’s actual potential,” he said. “Till now, we have only seen her in her first film. She is doing quite a few films in which she is playing different types of characters. She is a very hardworking girl.”
Rachit has also trained Aneet Padda, who hit a jackpot earlier this year with Mohit Suri’s Saiyaara. He gave her example for Shanaya saying, “Like how Saiyaara happened to Aneet. Of course, Aneet is very good but it’s also a good script and a good director, who can take that performance out of you. I think with Shanaya also (this can happen). She is doing so many different types of roles. She is working with so many directors.”
Rachit added, “I think once her films will start coming out, you will see her potential. Just fingers crossed for her because I know how hardworking and dedicated she is as an actor. I have been working with her from her first film. So, I have seen her journey and growth as an actor. I am just waiting for her films to come out and you guys to watch it and get blown away by it.”
As far as Rachit’s acting career is concerned, he will be seen next in Baby Do Die Do, which stars Huma Qureshi in the lead. The film is also produced by her and her brother Saqib Saleem under their banner Saleem Siblings.
