Pratap Hada ‘feels lucky’ to have got motivation from Rishi Kapoor

Actor Pratap Hada who is better known as Gautam in Sunshine Productions’ Paanch on Channel [V] had the opportunity to work with none other than the romantic hero of yesteryear Rishi Kapoor in the movie Bewakoofiyaan.

Talking about the experience with Rishi Kapoor, Pratap says, “I worked with Rishi Kapoor in the film Bewakoofiyaan and had the privilege of sharing screen with him. Initially I was scared because Rishi Kapoor is known to be a very strict person and being a new actor I was very nervous on the set.”

But one unique interaction with Rishi Kapoor changed Pratap’s equation with the legendary actor. “One day I had a night shift and could not sleep since I also had a few scenes in the morning. The scenes were to be shot with Rishi Sir. So I was very excited and nervous. And my nervousness was visible on my face. But before the take Rishi Sir came forward and patted me on my back and asked me why I was nervous. He said he was confident that I will do a good job. A small gesture from his side made me confident and I happened to do a good job in the scene.”

Pratap, we wish you all the luck for your future!!!
