I have always admired Kunal Kapoor and loved his work: Divina Thakur

Actor Divina Thakur feels lucky that she made her big screen debut opposite actor Kunal Kapoor, as she always wanted to work with the actor.

“When I signed Veeram, and Jayaraj (director) mentioned that Kunal Kapoor is playing the lead, I couldn’t control my happiness. I have always admired him as an actor and loved his work. I remember listening to Titli Daboch Li Maine (Meenaxi: A Tale of Three Cities, 2004) Maine ten times a day when it released. I also liked him in Rang De Basanti,” says Divina.

The debutant adds that she had a wonderful time working with him. “He is a grounded person. Every time I was nervous, he guided me. While working with him, I also came to know about his social work, which he is continuously doing without letting anyone know about it. I respect him for that,” says the actor, who is also looking forward to act in Tamil films.

Meanwhile, Divina, who has finished shooting for a web series, shares that she is a huge fan of actor Kareena Kapoor Khan, for both her acting prowess and style sense. “Be it Omkara, Chameli, Asoka, Ki and Ka or Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, I try and not miss a single film starring Kareena. I am also in awe of her style sense. She can carry off anything with elan,” shares Divina.
