'Ayushmati Geeta Matric Pass' is a film on girls' education and women empowerment. Recently, Kashika Kapoor, Anuj Saini and Atul Srivastava talked to Dainik Bhaskar about this film. Talking about the increasing influence of social media, Atul Srivastava said that now social media has become the criterion of talent. People are called for auditions after seeing social media profiles.
At the same time, the film's actress Kashika Kapoor said that her father did not want her to choose the acting profession. Actor Anuj Saini, who started his career as a junior artist, also expressed his views. Let us know what else the film's starcast said during the conversation.
Called for audition after seeing social media profile
Actor Atul Srivastava, who plays the role of Geeta's father Vidyadhar in the film, said, 'This film will increase awareness towards education. This is a very beautiful entertaining film. First the son will become aware after studying, only then the daughter will also study.
During the conversation, the actor also talked about the growing influence of social media. He said, 'Now social media has become the criteria of talent. If you do not have many followers then you do not get the blue tick. Even people are called for auditions after looking at social media profiles. It sounds very strange to hear this. There are good aspects of social media also. But I am not very active on social media.
Film talking about girls' education and women empowerment
Actress Kashika Kapoor is playing the title role of Geeta in the film. The actress said- Even today, in many places in India, education is not considered that important for girls. People believe that girls only have to take care of the kitchen, what will they do after studying? Our film talks about girls' education and women empowerment.
Beti Bachao Beti Padhao is one such scheme. Which is very important for our society. Through this film, an attempt has been made to convey that if daughters are to be saved then it is very important to educate them. The character of the film is deeply connected to my personal life. I am very happy to be a part of this film.
If my mother had not supported me, I would not have been able to become an actress.
During the conversation, Kashika Kapoor said – Unless women are empowered, a strong India will not be built. A woman should have the freedom to express her views. Papa did not want me to be a part of the film industry. Like him, he wanted to bring me into the business. But my inclination was towards acting. In the beginning, mother was very supportive. Papa came to know when my first song 'Dil Pe Zakhm' was released. Now father also supports.
Started as junior artist
Anuj Saini, playing the role of Kudan in the film, started his career as a junior artist in 2017. But within no time he became a big name in the world of advertising. Anuj Saini, who has appeared in famous brands like 'Hide and Seek', 'Cadbury', 'Coca Cola', 'KFC India', was given his first opportunity by Pradeep Khairwar in his music video 'Vaaste' in 2018. Anuj Saini said – When Pradeep sir called and gave narration for 'Ayushmati Geeta Matriculation Pass', I could not believe that I got a chance to play the lead role in the film. I am like Kundan in real life also.
Alia Bhatt became hero from junior artist
Anuj Saini further said, 'Initially I worked as a junior artist among 300 people. Was a junior artist in Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt and Diana Penty's ad 'Make My Trip'. After this, Saini appeared as his hero in Scooty's ad with Alia Bhatt. Apart from Alia Bhatt, Anuj has also shared screen space with Janhvi Kapoor in brand endorsements. Apart from brand endorsements, he has appeared in many music videos like 'Mere Angne Mein', 'Mainu Das Tu'. Anuj Saini's film 'Ayushmati Geeta Matric Pass' is releasing on October 18.
