Sonam Kapoor is not the only lucky actress to share screen space with her childhood crush Salman Khan, but Alia Bhatt has also joined the bandwagon by bagging roles opposite Shahid Kapoor in Shaandaar and Udta Punjab. Like many teenagers in 2003, Alia Bhatt also fell for Shahid Kapoor after he made his Bollywood debut with Ishq Vishk.
And 12 years down the line, Alia is sharing screen space with Shahid and she speaks about her experience working with the actor.
"I was more nervous about the film than about working with Shahid. It was great fun working with him. Otherwise I wouldn't be doing another film with him. Of course Shahid has 11 years' more experience than me. I was aware of that. And I love observing my co-actors. Shahid is very helpful on the sets."
The actress reminisces the days when she first saw Ishq Vishk and says she was quite impressed by him.
"It was a childhood crush. I was 10 when I saw Ishq Vishq and for an actor to be so good in those days meant a lot to an impressionable girl like me. I thoroughly enjoyed my shooting. It was my longest stint outside India. We were shooting in Leeds and Poland for 45 days. But it was amazing."
The actress also shared pictures with Shahid on her Instagram account during the shooting of Shaandaar.
