Aditya shares an interesting incident he had with Salman Khan on the first day of his shoot for London Dreams. The cast was shooting in London and Aditya’s first shot required him to scream at Salman.

When Aditya Roy Kapur SCREAMED At Salman Khan & He Just Opened ‘One Eye’

In a conversation with Mirror, Aditya revealed, “I was a VJ for over four years, and since I was somewhat of a public face, I would get calls for film auditions. Once, Amita Sehgal, a senior casting director, saw my picture in a magazine and called me. Before that, I used to skip half the audition calls anyway and would feel guilty later. Fortunately, this time I decided to go and Vipul (Amrutlal Shah, director-producer) sir thought I looked the part. I was informed that we would be shooting in London. Till then, I had travelled abroad only once, to Hong Kong and I was 22. In London Dreams, I would be playing a guitarist-l like music-and was going to be shooting in the city for two months. It was essentially a no-brainer for me and I did it on a lark, without thinking of it as my launch.”

Opening up about the debut shot, he said, “My first shot was in a London hospital, with Rannvijay (Singh), Ajay (Devgn) sir and Salman (Khan) Bhai. In the scene, Salman Bhai is lying on the bed and we as fellow band members are berating him. After a point, Ajay sir walks out, leaving Rannvijay and me with him. I had to scream at Salman Khan and l was like ‘What!'”
