Her next film Housefull 2 has a dozen actors, but Shazahn Padamsee isn't fretting. After all, stars also are part of multi-starrers, isn't it, says the actress. "I'VE this sort of great distance to move. I'M so young and feature to be part of the industry for thus a few years. I'll do multi-starrers,
I'll do films with many people...Now you spot even the celebrities doing multi-starrers. The arena is my oyster; I DO NOT search for anything solo or multi-starrer," Shazahn told IANS.
Daughter of ad guru Alyque Padamsee, Shazahn made her Bollywood debut with Ranbir Kapoor-starrer Rocket Singh: Salesman of the Year and later went directly to be part of Madhur Bhandarkar's Dil Toh Bachcha Hai Ji, which had an ensemble cast.She is now gearing up for the discharge of Housefull 2 April 5.
Directed by Sajid Khan, the comedy film features Akshay Kumar, Asin Thottumkal, Riteish Deshmukh, Boman Irani, Randhir Kapoor, Chunkey Pandey, John Abraham, Jacqueline Fernandez, Zarine Khan, Shreyas Talpade, Mithun Chakraborty and Rishi Kapoor.
Shazahn was initially nervous about being part of the film, but after working with the solid and crew, she says its been her best experience so far.
"Earlier, I USED TO BE nervous because I had heard of the pranks of Sajid and because I'M the youngest a few of the cast and the crew, I BELIEVED I MIGHT be picked up conveniently for a prank. However it have been probably the most enjoyable experience."
"All the actresses are very close and we were always chatting at the sets discussing diet tips. The solid has become family now," she added.
The two-film-old actress says she is enjoying the way in which her Bollywood career has shaped up so far, but says being an actor was never on her mind. Rather, she desired to be a writer.
"It have been a lovely journey. I come from a theatre family. So films were something I never considered doing because I WISHED to be a writer. But now since I'M a part of films, I'M enjoying each piece of it," said Shazahn, who recently walked the Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week (WIFW) ramp for designer Sulakshana Monga.
