Rajeev's intensity floors Tena

Actress Tena Desae, who will soon be seen opposite Rajeev Khandelwal in "Table No. 21", is all praise for her co-star's intensity, which she says, reflected in her performance as well.

"He is so brilliantly and effortlessly intense that it kind of helped me. So anytime I had any problem, I could go up and ask how he would do it so I could get some solution," the 25-year-old said here Thursday while promoting the film at a media institute.

"Just by him being amazing my job was easier because then I could play off reactions," she added.

Tena made her debut with "Yeh Faasley" in 2011 and has featured in "Sahi Dhandhe Galat Bandhe" and "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel". She was also seen in a small role in "Cocktail."

Directed by Aditya Datt, "Table No. 21" also stars Paresh Rawal and hits theatres Jan 4, 2013.
