Mahesh Bhatt, Irrfan Khan are my school of acting: Deepal Shaw

Deepal Shaw says that after working with Mahesh Bhatt and actor Irrfan Khan, there is no need for her to join acting school.

Mumbai: Bollywood actress Deepal Shaw says that after working with filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt and actor Irrfan Khan, there is no need for her to join acting school. "I have learned a lot from both Mahesh Bhatt and Irrfan Khan. For me they are my school of acting. Right from improvisation to natural subtle acting to rehearsals, they have always pushed me to do better and better," Deepal said here.
She made her acting debut in Mahesh Bhatt`s Kalyug, opposite Emraan Hashmi and new comer Kunal Khemu. In recently released Right Ya Wrong, the 24-year-old Deepal is seen sharing screen with Irrfan. She will also be seen with the actor in the upcoming film Tum Se. "I am a keen observer. I see Irrfan, how he acts, rehearses his dialogues scenes. How he behaves on and off the sets. All these things have helped me," the actress said. Right Yaa Wrong is based on two police officers played by Irrfan and Sunny Deol, who later become rivals. Deepal played the role of a de-glam lady cop caught between the two. The film also stars Isha Narang, Konkona Sen Sharma, Kirron Kher, Aryan Vaid and Govind Namdeo. When asked about her experience working with Suuny Deol, Deepal said, "It was great working with Sunny. He made me comfortable while shooting. He is a legend and a very big star but at the same time he is very down to earth." Deepal created a buzz in the music world with her very first appearance in the music video Baby Doll. On her yet to be released films, Deepal said, "In Vikalp, I play the role of a software engineer. I also have another film Tum Se which is a love story about two characters whose relationship undergoes many changes as they face different circumstances in life." "Vikalp is one film that I am proud of, as I am playing the protagonist," she said adding the movie is in post-production stage. Shedding some light on the story line of the film, Deepal, who essays the character of Rishika, said, "To pursue her IT dreams, Rishsika moves from Kolhapur to Mumbai, where she lands in trouble. She gets abducted by a terrorist group who wants to hire her as a hacker. She has two options in life, either to earn moolah out of helping terrorist group against her own country or fight back and save the country." About Tum Se, the actress said, "It`s about how love creates hassles in their (Irrfan and Deepal) lives, while rescuing them from various situations at the same time." PTI
