00:00okay hi kaveri welcome to table for two by asianet and i'm really really really excited
00:17to have you today obviously because uh for one reason that i'm personally very inspired by you
00:24and second is because i want to change the notion that you know people normally have about you know
00:32film uh people who come from filmy background i don't want people to see you because of your
00:37family legacy you know i want people to really get to know you i don't want to see you as you
00:42know shikha kapoor's daughter or krishnamooti's daughter i want them to see you as kaveri kapoor
00:47and because like we've spoken so far however much we've spoken i feel that people should see that
00:55side of you so i'm really glad that i'm going to be talking about so much exciting stuff so should we
01:01begin from the beginning yes yes okay cool so how was it growing up in a house where you know like
01:09your father is such a well-known figure your mother is so well-known how was it how's that like
01:14i mean it had it it had its advantages and its disadvantages um the part that i'm really
01:22grateful for is one that i was exposed to so much art and creativity as an artist and i think that's
01:31really influenced the path i've chosen in life and also because they already have a platform it was
01:37easier for me to have a platform it was easier for me to get where i am and to go where i'll hopefully
01:46go um but of course it had its disadvantages um my parents had a very public divorce and i was really
01:58young and there was a lot that i would find out you know through the news and you were reading news at
02:05that point yeah i mean by the time i was that age we had phones and we had access to the internet so
02:12even if you want to protect your children from these things correct um they can still go and find it if
02:19they want and then you know if if your child is not given access to it their friends at school who have
02:25access to it and today it's even easier because with social media and stuff nothing is really private
02:33but yeah i would say that was the main disadvantage but overall i'm really grateful because i get to do
02:40what i love and i got to discover what i loved really early yeah um your music career basically my music
02:49career and even when i discovered that i had um a passion for acting i had i had the privilege to
02:58explore it the way that i wanted to and i've been lucky enough to get opportunities yeah overall i'm
03:05really grateful for it blessed yeah yeah so talking about your music career what really sort of like
03:12you know astonishes me for the lack of a better word and actually like sort of like makes me wonder
03:20also how could 11 year old girl compose her own song write her own lyrics and sing that song
03:28make it public and sound so beautiful like how did that happen
03:36um i think songwriting because i grew up in such a creative household and because i was always around
03:45musicians um and i was always around people that were creating the way that children will go out to
03:53play or do sports creativity was second nature to me so it was just something that i was encouraged to
04:01explore really early on um and yeah i landed on songwriting and i i i really liked it and then
04:11my parents helped me develop it and yeah so i think i think it's just mostly because creativity was
04:21encouraged so much when i was a child um i learned it the way kids are taught math and reading i mean
04:31that was what i grew up around that was what my i saw my parents do most okay so it came i mean the
04:38urge to explore it came very easily okay i wouldn't say like yeah being a songwriter or a singer or an
04:46actor came very easily to me but the desire to go down that path didn't feel alien okay very well said
04:55actually uh so your mother i've seen her youtube channel as well and um she's around a lot of
05:02musicians and like you mentioned earlier while you were talking off camera she herself loves to
05:07sing and everything of course the world knows her as an actor you know i've seen her in kabbina kabbina
05:14um so how has her influence been in your life as far as your music trajectory is concerned
05:21um well she was the one who put me into music lessons um and piano lessons and she was always
05:31singing when i was growing up so that definitely influenced me um my dad is not a singer um
05:39but he very proudly posts on twitter and everything yeah he's a very proud that oh my daughter has written
05:45this sorry lovely to see his post because i haven't followed sorry not twitter it's called x now right
05:51so sorry yeah anyway on social media yeah elon musk might just get offended but okay
05:59i don't think he's gonna see it so yeah um so he seems to be a very proud father so when
06:06you were already doing like your songwriting and everything you knew that you know you went to
06:11Berkeley also which is like the mecca for all musicians i believe so you got into that which
06:18i'm sure must have been like a very proud moment for your parents again how did acting come to you
06:24i actually grew up really really shy so i never thought that i would ever be an actor in fact when
06:31i did drama in school because my parents really pushed me to explore that but i was
06:37mortified like i had so much stage fright um and i was just so shy and so like i was i just had so
06:48many insecurities about performing that i never thought i would go down that route but then as i got
06:54older and i started to come into my own more um and you know i started doing music videos and i realized i
07:02enjoy being on camera and i enjoy expressing myself in that way um and then i thought maybe
07:12it's something that i could explore and then i got the opportunity to audition for bobby or rishi
07:17ki love story and i really i had so much fun even during the audition process it was a little bit scary but
07:24i mostly really enjoyed it and it made me realize that i have like a real passion for acting yeah and then on
07:32set as well i just really i really enjoyed it and i felt like this is something that if i if i
07:38develop it i could be really good at it one day and and most importantly i felt really passionate
07:45about it and i felt like this is part of my calling yeah so yeah i figured it out kind of later than
07:53a lot of kids do yeah but i i realized i wanted to be an actor through the experience of acting
08:03okay so before we delve into your uh debut film uh bobby and rishi ki love story i just want to like uh
08:10just understand because both your parents are are a part of the you know hindi cinema universe and
08:16everything were there any tips given to you before you entered the set on the first day or throughout
08:23the filming process um yeah my dad my dad has always said act to act is to be or acting is being
08:35so that's kind of the philosophy i followed well when i first started acting was it was to be
08:43um and i've also learned this through different like courses that i've done i just did um a course
08:53an acting course in ireland and um lucky um yeah just i think he really emphasized that
09:03um the point of acting is to be as human as possible and so i would i would go into every
09:15acting experience thinking like okay like i'm trying to not for my like trying to not imagine that i'm a
09:23character but a real human being in this situation and having my reactions and my experience be like as
09:31authentic as possible yeah um so that was the advice given to me in terms of acting but i remember
09:42um before we started shooting my skin was really bad okay um it was like i was really breaking out
09:50i had pcos so i really struggled with okay high five girl code i struggled with i was struggling with
10:01my skin my hair was thinning i struggled with my weight as well but i remember like i was talking to
10:07my mom before going on set and she really at that time helped me feel more confident in my skin
10:14and helped me focus on what was important in that moment which was my performance and the rest could
10:22be dealt with later hmm so that i mean you can always put makeup on right yeah like i mean i i've
10:31i've come i think at least if i'm not wrong the data is like at least four out of ten women have pcos
10:38yeah and they deal with the same issue and uh it is something that we don't talk about more often
10:45but it is what it is it's something that you have to live with right yeah and i'm sure there must have
10:52been like hurdles your way where you must have felt that oh my god like this is really coming in my way
10:58and everything yeah like i had moments on set where um i could hear like the other the extras on set and i
11:07could hear them speak and they'd be like oh she's so pretty but her skin is so bad oh yeah so it was
11:12that but i really had to like put on like blindfolds and just act like uh did you let that affect you
11:20in any way yeah of course i mean even if you don't want it to affect you i was also only 21 when we shot
11:27i just turned 21 it was my first time acting my first time really being on camera also the role
11:36that i was playing you know she's a pretty girl she so of course it affected yeah london-based club
11:42rom-com yeah and it would it would still affect me of course you're human yeah people like zone in on
11:47your appearance and stuff like that but i've learned to deal with it and like focus on the parts of
11:54myself that i can't control but you know what i'll tell you something your director uh for the film
12:00kunal kohli national award-winning director he has an eye for good actors and trust me like he's made
12:09some legendary movies and he cast you and of course the film did great it got good reviews it was on hot
12:17star and everything and uh i think it was this february right yeah it got released yeah so i mean
12:25there was a rm answer involved what could have gone wrong possibly nothing right so i'm just like
12:33just want to like appreciate you for being so authentic about these things you know because
12:39normally you know actors are not themselves because obviously like there comes a lot of scrutiny
12:44because whenever they open their mouths there's somebody trolling them doing saying things
12:49but the fact that you felt comfortable sharing this here means a lot to me personally yeah um i also
12:57think like we also have to on some level of course but as public figures you also have a responsibility
13:06like to create a culture that you want to exist in and that benefits people and helps people because
13:20we do have a lot of influence on the general public as actors as artists but i think like we also have to
13:29create an environment especially because a lot of actors start off really young yeah it's really easy to
13:35criticize people for maybe not being as authentic or like projecting a certain image of themselves but
13:48i think that we also have to create an environment where it's okay to do that and it's encouraged to do
13:55that yeah of course because i can understand why a lot of a lot of people who do what i do wouldn't want to be so
14:10open about yeah because with vulnerability also comes you know um the willingness to accept whatever
14:19sort of review comes your way when you become wonderful basically you're opening up right yeah
14:26so you have to accept what the other person has to say because it's your choice to be open about it
14:30right it's not always easy because these things that people open up about often
14:35like for me it's an open mood you know so it's hard to talk about and it's hard to accept that people
14:41are gonna say what what they want to say also like i think like as an actor you're told that
14:51you're you're an image or you're a brand or that you're supposed to project that kind of perfection
15:01whether it's on screen or just as a public figure in general and i think that makes it kind of more
15:06difficult to talk about anything yeah of course not just like when you look at the big picture
15:14like talking about acne is a really small thing but um it can be difficult to talk about because
15:20it makes you feel really wonderful talking about hair thinning is not something i don't think any
15:26most of the actors would be comfortable about yeah because it's it's it's just a difficult thing yeah
15:31because we've said that you know like because we put the actors as indian audience i'm saying or as
15:36a global audience also you know we put actors on such great pedestals that they themselves feel so
15:42pressurized that you know you have to be picture perfect there is a certain standard of beauty that
15:46needs to be followed yeah so there's a lot of pressure i can understand that completely but um let's
15:51talk about the creative part of the film okay now you had written a song at the age of 15 which you
15:57sang for this movie i believe it was in you wrote it in english yeah and you had great people working
16:04with you on that song prasoon joshi wrote the lyrics in hindi for you and of course arman composed the
16:11music period so how was that process like like how was it working with such legendary people and of course
16:16kunal koly's himself is so like musically inclined yeah his music is yeah like really good so what was that
16:23like it was really fun because i got to be part of that process in the film as well and when i wrote
16:29the song i never expected that i would be able to like showcase both of my passions at the same time
16:38yeah um yeah it was a really it was a really fun process and um
16:46um we played the song to kanal and he was like okay it fits the story and it fits the mood of the film
16:55and so we got it translated and i recorded it like six or seven times oh right okay yeah
17:01i really wanted to get it right and you wanted to get it perfect yeah mr perfectionist um
17:09um and also like he wanted to extract my potential because um i tend to get
17:20i tend to get nervous when i sing and i knew what the song was for so i got even more nervous so we
17:24had to do a couple of um we had to get into the studio a couple of times to yeah to to get me to
17:36a point where i was comfortable enough to do my best okay and the song turned out to be really good
17:40by the way yeah so we're gonna stick to this film for a short while now uh now tell me we've we all
17:46watched the movie it's out there for public to see now tell me some of the fun bts i want to know that
17:54so when we first started doing um rehearsals
17:58um i would fight with vartan a lot why because i was in college at this time i was in boston
18:10and he was in mumbai and every time we would rehearse it would be like 2 a.m for me
18:17and it would be daytime for him so by the time we got to rehearsing i would be so cranky and i because i'd
18:25spend all day either like doing like finals or doing homework or being in class or whatever
18:31um and then by the time we got to rehearsing it was like two in the morning because he was also
18:37working at other times and that was the only time we could schedule and so i would just be in a really
18:44bad mood and fight with him a lot and i've also like i remember at one point i would we we started
18:51doing rehearsals and i started crying i was like it's three in the morning can we like schedule
18:55a different time yeah but yeah we actually before before we got on set before i fought with him a
19:03lot oh he was not he was not he was a sweetheart to you yeah okay lovely vardan if you're watching it
19:10she said that on camera the news is that you're going to be working with your father in the next film
19:16masu which is going to be i think uh which was like a cult classic and it's going to be remade i
19:23think it's a remake right masoom the next generation kind of and like what after what 40 years four
19:30decades after four decades is being made and it's very difficult i'm sure to step in the shoes of the
19:37actors that have already worked on that film because it's a cult classic right nasir deen shah was there
19:42the shabana's meme everybody loved that film so tell me about your father shaker kapusa how is it
19:53with him like your camaraderie with him when it comes to acting him as a director and you as an actor to
19:59him it's it's a very comfortable environment um and i think he has his way of bringing out the best in
20:08actors um even past what they thought they were capable of yeah um and there's a lot of freedom to
20:18like explore and really go deep into your character and he'll like he'll he'll push you to do that you
20:31know he'll encourage that and also because i'm working with um such like veteran actors
20:39it is a bit intimidating i'm not gonna lie but it's mostly really inspiring no and i can you and
20:45i get to i'm excited to see what i'll get to learn yeah um but is he the chill dad like yes at work was
20:54also like yeah he's very chill he's very chill yeah okay so like what kind of i mean if anything i'm the
21:00bully
21:03talking about after masoon what's next for you have you signed up any other projects or are you more
21:11inclined towards singing i i definitely want to do both both yeah 100 percent um
21:19um i'm equally passionate about music and acting it just depends on what like kind of phase of life
21:28i'm in so i hope i get to explore both but have you signed any other project yeah and
21:35can i get some details about that at least honestly i really want to but i really have this terrible
21:42have to tell me i just tell me what production house it is at least that much i'm getting no from
21:51i'm getting asked to shut my mouth no i'm sorry but you have signed a film yeah yeah okay um there's
22:00one more question that has stayed in my mind for a very long time i don't know if it's appropriate
22:06enough to ask you ask um here ask it's actually not a very like a fun kind of question and nothing
22:12related to you personally but uh see you told me that your father has you know the kind of ability
22:20to bring out the best in actors and i still remember when one of our very talented actors passed away
22:28and your father had great regards for that actor very young actor who passed away in over 2020 and
22:38he was supposed to shoot a film with him and we could see it you know the way he was speaking about
22:44him how deeply grieved like how he was grieving your father was grieving so did he like speak about
22:53it at home as well i mean obviously when you're close to someone they pass away it's a very sad thing
23:00so it affected him a lot yeah they were friends so that's natural if someone close to you
23:09passes away yeah and he also said that if that film which he was supposed to make with him ever gets
23:15made it is going to be dedicated to him yeah yeah yeah so like your dad like still talks about it
23:28um i know i know he was deeply affected by it and the film and the character
23:39were deeply personal to him so yeah it it comes up comes up here and there yeah very personal question
23:50to ask you okay now with your mom uh her being a great actor in her life and uh obviously like it's public news
24:03that your mom and dad are separated and we think i got to know that you set up a profile for her on a
24:12dating app spilt the beans now this you can't escape from i mean yeah i just wanted her to be happy
24:21everyone deserves love yeah i wanted her to have fun i was going away to college and i wanted her to date
24:28yeah it was quite simple and what happened after that what ensued she didn't date she did not yeah
24:34she did she did not go out also i don't think so no from what i remember or maybe there was like one
24:40date but from what i remember i didn't go yeah but what made you like do that like just like
24:47well i was going away to college um and i knew she was gonna be living alone i didn't want her to
24:54be lonely and on top of that like i just just wanted her to get out there a little bit like have fun
25:01but i love how unconventional your relationship with your mother is yeah because normally in indian
25:07households a lot of girls don't have the freedom to even speak about a guy yeah you know and you
25:15taking up that role for your mother commendable whether or not she dated that's secondary but that
25:22was really good that was really nice to know yeah i mean we've always have always spoken to her
25:28openly about boys yeah and about most things yeah and even with my dad like i wanted him to date as
25:36well really yeah tell us that story that i don't know about like after a certain age of course until i
25:43when i was like a little kid i was quite protective but after a while you just want your parents to be
25:48happy you want them to have love in their lives and okay that's great to know actually now tell us one
25:56thing about each of your parent and about yourself okay i want to know uh that people would probably
26:05not know that's not in the in the public eye um my my dad is a teddy bear he cries all the time what are
26:15you trying to say that shekhar kapoor tries tries all the time yeah he cries all the time i think he's
26:20like super intimidating he's actually like an emotional teddy bear really yeah what about your mom
26:27she has to travel she has travel yeah do you like to travel yeah but it stresses me out yeah i like to
26:36like i really have to prepare myself my mom is like like she loves adventure she's very adventurous
26:43she's been like all over the world if you had to like give one advice to girls who are like struggling
26:49with pcos who have body image issues because of it or who just generally have like very painful
26:56experience with the disorder what would you say to them i don't know i don't know if i'm really in a
27:02place to sit down and give someone clear advice on it because i haven't like recovered from it yet i
27:09haven't really healed from it yet even mentally it can be very tough but i would say like if you're
27:17dealing with weight gain or acne or whatever the physical side effects what has helped me is to try
27:29and find things in my life that don't have anything to do with the way i live okay things that bring me joy
27:37that have nothing to do with my weight or my appearance in general because my weight is something
27:46i really struggled with with pcos and it can really it can really mess with you because the messaging you
27:54get from society especially as a girl is that it's one of the most important things about you know
28:02especially as an actor yeah that's what i was coming to yeah so what's helped me is to find
28:09things outside of that even if that means stepping out of my role as an actor sometimes
28:20music helps a lot because there's less of a focus on it obviously it's less of a visual medium
28:26yeah but yeah i would just say like find find things that
28:34divert your attention maybe or find find things in life that don't place
28:40emphasis on the way you look or don't define you by how you look which honestly today
28:47the mystery age can be quite difficult but anyways uh moving forward uh i have a very fun game for you
28:55okay so i'm gonna take my phone and it's called guess what it's called rapid fire yes
29:04rapid fire wow you're so smart you told me did that you didn't shut up you're not supposed to say that
29:18it's okay it's okay it's okay it's okay okay now okay
29:23chitra krishnamooti wrote a book about you what would it be titled
29:27oh my god think from our perspective something about how i need to like calm down yeah yeah yeah
29:38yeah calm down baby the book would be titled calm down baby yeah would you rather be directed by your
29:45dad or act opposite shara khan what both personally be directed by my dad which you which is already
29:53happy yeah maybe my answers are a little bit biased but okay if i didn't have to choose i would say both
30:00okay okay cool fair enough one bollywood actor that you'd never want to be stuck in a vanity van with
30:08and why honestly i don't know everyone i met has been quite nice yeah people have been nice to you
30:13yeah in the industry who's been the nicest chalo tell me that
30:17um i recently um ran into abhishek bachchan he was very kind to me oh absolutely yeah i ran into him
30:33at a reward show and he was talking to me about how
30:37how to be confident in the position that i'm in and um yeah like feel at home in what i'm doing
30:49so that was really really kind yeah it was also random like he just yeah it wasn't like i didn't
30:56ask him he just felt the need to say it to me i thought it was really really nice so he was very
31:00wrong too yeah he was very kind okay okay very nice actually yeah let's not read the chino i mean
31:08i mean kindness never goes out of fashion i agree yeah i can believe you so for example hypothetically
31:15if your debut had flopped or had not done well for the lack of a better term what would you be doing
31:22today instead apart from singing i would still be acting you would still be acting yeah so it wouldn't
31:29have affected you it would have obviously affected me and my career but i don't i think i don't think
31:36i would have quit acting okay one because i love it two yeah i think i've accepted failures as a part
31:46of the process not just as an actor but as an artist and as a human one quality you definitely did not
31:55inherit from your parents um my mom is quite um bold like she'll say what's on her mind regardless i think
32:07i'm more diplomatic okay um i'm very similar to my dad so that's a tough so you think that you're
32:16you also cry baby like him i was just gonna say i'm not as much of a cry baby no actually that's not true
32:22i very much am so i don't yeah very beautifully said okay um if you could swap lives with anybody
32:32in this world who would it be and what's the first thing you would do
32:36one of my puppies they have yeah how many do you have two they're not actually puppies they're like
32:46three yeah what breed shih tzus but they just have the best lives they wake up they get belly rubs they
32:56eat they go for walks like i want to live that life that's the perfect love yeah yeah yeah if your love
33:04life for a bollywood film what would it be called bobby or ishi ki love story bobby or ishi ki love story
33:11see you pitching yourself yeah everybody is still available on hotstar so you can go and watch it
33:17one co-star you would say yes to even without reading a script any actor any actor yeah that you
33:27would love to start with in a film there's so many but still one favorite na ki chalo iske saath to
33:36kaam bed nah alia alia bhat yeah okay you love alia bhat she's very talented of course okay um the last
33:45time your dad gave you unsolicited advice and you totally ignored it huh probably this morning this
33:50morning yeah and what was it i mean from my parents a lot of advice is unsolicited okay i think he was
33:57like telling me to to wake up earlier okay and then the other day i was just sick and he was trying to
34:04get me to go see a doctor just being a dad yeah come on being protective okay uh three things no one
34:13knows about the real kaveri see that's a very tough question because i'm i feel like i will talk about
34:22myself so openly so i don't really know if there's something um i wanted to be a geologist as a kid okay
34:38that's interesting yeah that's one
34:44i used to like be a bully like as a kid like i would beat people up what are you saying
34:52you would beat people up yeah in school yeah like i was
34:57yeah like i would i would genuinely beat people i wasn't strong enough to do any harm yeah and the
35:04first thing i would do when i met someone is i'd be like panja like i want to arm wrestle oh yeah i was
35:11so you were that kid yeah i was definitely that kid i used to be really into drawing drawing
35:18into art yeah artistically very inclined yeah yeah um i love poetry poetry i love writing poetry
35:27i don't read a lot of poetry okay okay done um an actor or actress whose career arc you secretly want
35:35to have it's not a secret outside this will mean alia alia bhat you want to have that kind of success
35:42and career yeah okay fair enough if your mom and dad had to play your on-screen parents
35:49what genre would that drama thriller
35:54kawiri why are you doing
35:58did you just say horror no i'm just kidding sorry finish the question
36:04finish the question okay what genre would you say
36:10do you have three options if you had to give up acting or music forever which one would hurt more
36:28acting acting would hurt more no no sorry music music would hurt more yeah yeah you can't give up
36:35music music no music has been such a part of my identities like growing up especially as a
36:41songwriter so that would be very difficult okay okay um a director your dream of working with but
36:48also are a little intimidated by a part from your father any other director in the industry
36:53you want to be his muse yeah and wear 18 kgs and 20 kgs of lehengas in dance and i would also be
37:06intimidated you would also be intimidated of course have you ever googled yourself yeah and what came up
37:13that made you laugh or cringe come on this you have to tell me oh my god so many things what man for
37:19example so if you i'm probably gonna get interested in this the images that come up from me they're
37:27mortifying like because a lot of them are from when i was like younger and a teenager like pictures of
37:34me like and i just like not knowing i was being photographed they're actually like it's very funny and
37:42you know the same like i give you full permission to google it and laugh at it no i'm not gonna laugh at it
37:48but you know one thing right that if anything ever goes up on the internet it can't get yeah yeah
37:53it's there forever it's there forever yeah yeah anyway uh so if you had to recast let's say your
38:00dad's mr india today which had legendary uh late sri devy kapoor and anil kapoor um who would play anil kapoor
38:09and who would play sri devy in today's generation maybe my answer is quite biased but i'd like
38:16vardan to play um yeah i like her i'm a fan yeah yeah you love janil kapoor yeah and alia bhat yeah yeah
38:38yeah okay i mean it was really great having you thank you and i'm so glad that i got to meet you
38:44and i got to know you on a personal level and i'm i hope that the audience also like you and
38:51they saw the real you not as somebody's daughter not as an actor not as a singer but the person that
