Actress Deepshikha Nagpal will be sharing the screen with Bhumika Chawla and Arbaaz Khan in her upcoming film “Kesar Singh.”
Working with Bhumika Chawla
Reflecting on her experience, Deepshikha described Bhumika as an “absolute sweetheart.” She stated, “It was truly lovely working with both Bhumika and Arbaaz. This was my first film with Bhumika, and she is incredibly warm, grounded, and simple despite having such a remarkable body of work.”
Deepshikha expressed that they connected instantly, adding, “Even off-screen, our bond felt very natural. Our families got along beautifully too — my daughter, her son, and all of us spent a lot of time together, which made the experience feel like one big family.”
Reuniting with Arbaaz Khan
Discussing her reunion with Arbaaz Khan, she mentioned, “With Arbaaz, I’ve worked earlier as well, although unfortunately, those films didn’t release. So there was already a sense of familiarity and comfort. He is extremely cooperative, professional, and has absolutely no airs.”
Memorable Moments on Set
Deepshikha recalled a specific moment during the shoot of “Kesar Singh” that left a lasting impression. “There was a bit of scheduling confusion one day, and Arbaaz was informed that I might be running late. Without a second thought, he stood up for me and said he knew I was always punctual and that there must be a genuine reason. Later, it turned out to be a simple mix-up, as I was finishing another scene elsewhere and had to come in later that night.”
On the night of the shoot, she described the pressure she felt as it was already past midnight and she had some heavy lines to deliver in her introduction scene. “Everyone was tired and ready to pack up. Arbaaz noticed this and kept the mood light, even joking that someone should just wake me up and tell me what expression to give, because I’d deliver it anyway. We ended up finishing the scene in a single take. That kind of encouragement and faith from a co-actor makes a huge difference, and it’s something I truly cherish.”
