Ruslaan Mumtaz, Sheena Shahabadi talk about Teree Sang & issue of teen pregnancy : Bollywood News

Its hard for Bollywood to make any movie that doesnt involve some sort of preaching. However, Satish Kaushik managed to do one outside the studio system. The fact that his next film Teree Sang deals with teenage pregnancy - and doesnt preach at all - is a feat of filmmaking. So when we met the new comer, the new entrant and the newest actress to hit Bollywood at actor Ruslaan Mumtazs residence, we were impressed. Impressed on the way she perceived her first role. She said, Pregnancy in early age is itself a big issue. Teen pregnancy is very difficult as it has not only the physical consequences; it also has social, emotional and moral consequences. The study shows that in past ten years there is a dramatic increase in the teenage pregnancy. The reason behind this is the immaturity and lack of knowledge among teenagers. And then started some serious debate, a serious argument and a serious discussion on teenage pregnancy. UKs Harrow Observer columnist Devansh Patel tried to play a different ball game this time around. Instead of throwing the questions to both the young actors, we decided to let them battle out themselves in this Bollywood Hungama exclusive. Presenting you the scintillating face launched by Satish Kaushik - Sheena Shahabadi in conversation with the new found talent Ruslaan Mumtaz. Its time to grill!

Ruslaan Mumtaz: How does it feel to be the newest leading lady of Bollywood?

Sheena Shahabadi: It feels great. As far as I can remember, I always wanted to become an actress since childhood. Its a dream come true for me.

RM: Youve started your film career working with one of the veterans of Bollywood, Satish Kaushik.

SS: Ive seen Mujhe Kuch Kehna Hai and Tere Naam. The latter can be termed as my favourite Satish Kaushik film. He is an actors director and it was great working with him.

SS: Would you work with Satish Kaushik again?

RM: My first director was Robby Grewal. He wanted me in his next film. I did not like my part and had to turn him down. He was upset with me for a while. I told him not to give me a hit film but a hit role and Ill do it. At this point of time, I want to guarantee my success. Satishji has looked after us for more than a year but even if he doesnt give me a good part in his next film, Ill reject it.

RM: What about the term, a kidult love storyâ€¦

SS: I dont think that the word kidult is funny. Its like kids who behave like adults later on and thats why the term kidult is used. Even if we have made a mistake. We know how to be responsible for it.

SS: What are your views on a word like kidult?

RM: Kidult is an American word which says that the young teenagers are like kids but are more responsible than the adults.

RM: Todays actresses have problem playing the role of a mother. But your debut film sees you as a fifteen year old mother. Were you hesitant?

SS: I wasnt hesitant at all. I wasnt scared. Ive read in the newspapers about fifteen year old girls getting pregnant and similar kind of stories. I think its high time people face the reality and be aware of what they are and arent doing?
