Sudhir Mishra praises Kareena Kapoor Khan’s dedication during Chameli shoot; says, “She is from Raj Kapoor’s family, she knows how to respect the director and the process”

Filmmaker Sudhir Mishra has praised Kareena Kapoor's dedication during the shooting of his acclaimed drama Chameli. He highlighted her remarkable discipline and commitment to her role, even amidst the grueling 12-hour work shifts experienced by the cast and crew. In an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Mishra reminisced about the making of his 2004 film.

“Kareena is hugely talented, I remember the script would come every day with dialogues, those who work in mainstream are used to this,” he remarked of Chameli, in which Kareena plays a sex worker who befriends an investment banker on a rainy night after his car breaks down.

“She is from Raj Kapoor’s family, she knows how to respect the director and the process. When she would give the shot, I realised that every time I forgot to say cut, she wouldn’t stop either. It is that discipline, that till the director doesn’t cut, I will keep performing. She would then end up doing something that I didn’t ask her to and it is beautiful. There are a lot of shots I have held on to her face, because she is Chameli, the film.”

Kareena's discipline was praised by the filmmaker as "outstanding," observing how she would patiently stand for lighting and framing photos. He added, “To capture rain shots and get that exact focus frame…. In rain, the saree weighs heavier, and she would shoot for 12 hours a day, which is why we finished it in 28 days. The film was released in four months! I won’t recommend it to anyone, but it was a passionate unit which made the film happen.”

Chameli earned Kareena Kapoor significant acclaim and marked a major shift in her career, being one of her first forays into non-mainstream cinema following popular films such as Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, Mujhse Dosti Karoge, and Main Prem Ki Diwani Hoon.

Currently, Sudhir Mishra is looking forward to the release of the second season of his SonyLIV show Tanaav. Meanwhile, Kareena Kapoor is also set for a notable release next week. She stars in Hansal Mehta’s The Buckingham Murders, where she portrays an investigative officer delving into the mystery of a child's murder.
