Having played the love interest of Shah
Rukh Khan in her debut movie Fan, actress
Shriya Pilgaonkar says the "hunger" to
work with the Bollywood superstar is "far
from over" and she would love to share the
screen with him again.
"I would really want to work with Shah
Rukh Khan again. The hunger to work with
this phenomenal person and actor is far
from over and, has only increased after
Fan'," she told PTI. Pilgaonkar, who is in
town for her play, "Internal Affairs", an
urban romantic comedy, says she loves
dancing and would like to shake a leg with
Shah Rukh, something she did not get a
chance to do in Fan'.
More from the world of Entertainment:
Actors like Nawazuddin Siddique, Ranbir
Kapoor and Ranveer Singh are also on her
Bollywood wishlist. As a performing artiste
it's the script that is supreme for her. The
medium, format and duration of her role
never act as a limitation for her, she says.
The play will be staged at the Shri Ram
Centre for Performing Arts here.
"For me, what matters is the script, content
and the quality of the role. I want to do
exciting work. For the same reason, I was
fine working in Marathi, Hindi or French
films for that matter."
However, the actress, who is the daughter
of television greats Sachin and Supriya
Pilgaonkar, is not that keen to work on
small screen as it requires "a different sort
of commitment".
"Right now, I am happy doing plays, movies
and commercials. I don't see myself
working for television for the
time being," she says.
Unlike most star-kids, she never felt the
pressure of being born to celebrity parents
as they "never called somebody to put in a
good word for her".
"I have never felt that pressure, partly
because my parents have never put that
kind of pressure on me. They never
interfere in my work. I take their advice
since they have been in the industry for
over 50 years now. But, it is limited to that.

"Having said that, I am happy with people
comparing my work with my parents.
Because comments like you have your
parents genes' only shows that they
appreciate my work. And I take that as a
compliment," says Shriya.
Talking about what kind of roles she would
like to do in future, biopics and musicals are
her preferred genres.
"A movie like La La Land would be just
great. I just can't get over this musical love
story. I loved Emma Stone and wish to do a
role like that in future. Also I would love to
biopics where I can play an inspiring
character on screen. I loved the way the
girls performed in Dangal," she says.
