Sidharth Malhotra wants to impress Deepika Padukone, romance Kareena Kapoor

“I am a big Kareena fan. She is very entertaining on screen and off screen also she is like that. I have met her a couple of times and she is really good. She is funny,
‘bindaas’…I love the way she carries herself. It will be interesting to flirt with her,” he said.

Sidharth who made a successful debut with Karan Johar’s ‘Student of the Year’ will be next seen in ‘Hasee Toh Phasee’ with Parineeti Chopra.

Encapsulating the idea of the title he says, “It is not easy to impress any girl in any field. For boys there is a lot of work…. if a girl smiles, that does not mean she is impressed, need to do other things as well. The trick is for the guy to know what the girl likes and dislikes.”

“It is upto you how you gauge that.. some boys have good instincts, while some are dumb and stupid. Every girl is different there is no one formula for it,” he said.

The model-actor was flooded with lot of offers post his debut but he chose ‘Hasee Toh Phasee’ as his second film as he found it quirky.

“I found this film interesting because of its quirkiness, there is not much glitz and glamour¿it is middle class Bombay story. It is a dark intense edgy film. It has action but it is emotionally driven. I read the script and found it very quirky, funny. Vinil Mathew (director) is technically sound, intelligent,” Siddharth said.

For the film, Siddharth had to work on his look – he had to gain some weight and colour his hair.

“The character is aggressive. It requires some amount of conviction to play this role. It is a risk as the role that I play in the film is that of a older man,” the 29-year-old
adds.

The film is produced by Johar and Anurag Kashyap, releases on February 7.
