Time To Dance Actor Sooraj Pancholi Is Over The Jiah Khan Controversy; Opens Up About His Co-Star Isabelle Kaif

Actor Sooraj Pancholi made his debut in Bollywood back in 2015 with Salman Khan’s romantic action film Hero, opposite Athiya Shetty. While he won accolades for his performance in the film, his path ahead was extremely difficult as he was charged with abetting girlfriend and actress Jiah Khan's suicide. His second film Satellite Shankar released 4 years later but failed to impress the audiences. Well, the actor is now ready to win hearts with his next film titled Time To Dance, opposite Katrina Kaif’s sister Isabelle Kaif.

In a recent chat with Spotboye, the actor opened up about being in the limelight due to the Jiah Khan controversy and stated, “I am over that now. In fact I laugh at those making a desperate effort to keep that controversy alive. I have far better things happening in my life.” Talking about his next film, Sooraj shared that it’s his first full-fledged dance film. He said, “Both my co-star Isabelle Kaif and I had so much fun dancing. It’s all done in the Latin style. So all the dancing is collaborative. I must say Isabelle is a fabulous dancer. As for me, I think I dance well too. I’ve always been good at hip-hop. The Latin dancing was new to me.”

Sooraj also shared that Isabelle and he became friends long before they began the shooting of their film. They later spent a lot of time rehearsing together. He went on to add, “She is an absolutely hassle-free co-star, great fun to be with. I enjoyed the experience shooting the film with her. I hope it is a success for her sake as well as for mine.”

Time To Dance is all set to hit theatres on 12^th March and will also release on streaming giant Netflix some days later.
