Mohit Suri schools journalist who says Shraddha Kapoor’s stardom is not as much as Alia Bhatt, Ranbir Kapoor: ‘Her stardom is insane..even today…’ |

Mohit Suri is getting a lot of love for his recent release ‘Saiyaara’ starring Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda. Fans are lauding the film-maker to give two new stars to the industry, however, this isn’t new for Mohit. He still gets praise for ‘Aashiqui 2‘ and how it changed the careers of Shraddha Kapoor and Aditya Roy Kapur. Interestingly, Mohit is Alia Bhatt‘s cousin as his mother is Mahesh Bhatt’s real sister. In a recent interview, Mohit was asked to react to why Shraddha does not enjoy the kind of stardom Ranbir Kapoor and Alia have. Saiyaara Movie ReviewThe director was a little surprised to hear this as he answered that Shraddha does have a huge stardom. Speaking to Siddharth Kannan, Mohit said, “I think Shraddha has seen some level of stardom. I don’t know what does that mean but Shraddha’s stardom is insane. Even till today if she goes somewhere, people start shouting Aarohi (her character’s name from Aashiqui 2), and it doesn’t matter how many films she does. I don’t pretend to say that I know what it takes to become a star but I know what is right for my film and I do that.”Shraddha made her debut with ‘Teen Patti’ and then she was seen in ‘Luv Ka The End’ but both these films did not do well. It was only with ‘Aashiqui 2’ that she got immense love and fame. The character remains memorable even after so many years. Earlier, during an event, Shraddha had admitted how ‘Aashiqui 2’ escalated her career. She said, “Aarohi came in my life, and changed everything. I am forever grateful and thankful to each and everyone who gave so much love to me as Aarohi. People remember the film, the songs and the story, even after so many years. I would like to also thank Mohit Suri sir for giving me this character and an opportunity of a lifetime. It will always stay with me.”
