I love watching romantic comedies: Shakti Arora

Remember the famous dialogue from the film The Dirty Picture? ‘Filmein sirf 3 cheezon ki wajah se chalti hain, entertainment, entertainment, entertainment’.

And there is surely one star from the telly world, who whole heartedly believes in this line. He is smart, he is intelligent, he is sexy- yes we are talking about the small screen heartthrob Shakti Arora (Meri Aashiqui Tum Se Hi).

For our special section, the actor got all chatty with us and spoke about his choice of films, his favourite movie scenes, DishTV’s innovative product DishFlix and some more. Read on…

Are you a movie buff?

I am one person who is fond of watching movies. I simply like this form of entertainment.

What kind of movies you like to watch?

I believe romantic comedy is typically my genre. I enjoy watching romcom flicks.

Tell us about your favourite movie scene?

Jab We Met is one of my all time favourite films and most of the scenes of this movie have always remained really touchy for me. But, if you ask me to choose any one particular scene then it will be the one where Kareena makes Shahid understand the deeper meaning of life and they had a heart to heart conversation. That was wow for me!!!

So who are your favourite hero and heroine?

Both the pretty faces, Katrina and Alia are surely topping my chart of favourite actresses. But for Alia, what amazes me is that even at a tender age such brilliant performer she is. Amongst actors, Aamir Khan is one man whom I look up to. The kind of effort he puts behind to develop each and every character of his, is worth mentioning.

What was the last movie you watched?

Bajrangi Bhaijaan.

Cinema for you is…

Cinema for me is nothing but entertainment and of course it is also my life. Even I look up to work in the same industry some day. Cinema is one career that I want to pursue in future.

You keep busy as an actor…so how do you prefer watching movies?

•          On the go- internet

•          Movie On demand

•          Rent DVDs            

I prefer watching movies in theatres. In case I miss, then on television.         

Are you aware about DishTV’s latest Product- DishFlix? It’s the talking point among all movie lovers…

Honestly speaking, the concept of having ad free films and getting it on your TV, without internet, seems to be enthralling for the audience. It’s exciting.
