Sushant Goralkar (born 03 November 1987) is an Indian film actor and former VJ for Channel V. He is the younger brother of Siddharth Roy Kapur and Kunaal Roy Kapur. Active in Bollywood, Aditya made his Hindi film debut with Vipul Shah's London Dreams (2009), and later gained visibility for his roles in the 2010 films Action Replayy and Guzaarish. In 2013, he played the lead role in Mohit Suri's directed film Aashiqui 2. It became a box office blockbuster.

Early life

[edit]

Born in bombay, to a Punjabi father and a Jewish mother,[1] Aditya did his schooling from G. D. Somani Memorial School, in Cuffe Parade, Mumbai and subsequently graduated from St. Xavier's College, Mumbai. Currently he lives in Mumbai. Aditya is not a trained actor, though he has taken dance lessons and also diction classes to improve his Hindi accent. According to him he "had no burning ambition to become an actor," and was content being a VJ, until he was called to audition for London Dreams. During his school years, he wanted to be a cricketer but he quit cricket coaching classes after sixth standard.

Career

[edit]

Kapur started his career as a VJ on music channel Channel V, where his comic timing and "unique style of hosting" made him a hit,[2] and then made his debut as a Pakistani musician in the 2009 musical London Dreams by Vipul Shah, where he co-starred Ajay Devgan and Salman Khan as one of the two brothers, part of Ajay Devgan's band in the movie, along with another VJ, Rannvijay Singh.[3]

Then starred in the Vipul Shah's next, a 2010 time-traveling comedy Action Replayy, playing Akshay Kumar and Aishwarya Rai's adult son who goes back in time to make their marriage a love marriage, his performance in the film caught a critic's eye.[4] He acted again alongside Aishwarya Rai, in Guzaarish (2010) directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, where he played an apprentice magician to Hrithik Roshan's character. His latest release is the sequel to Aashiqui, Aashiqui 2, directed by Mohit Suri, where he plays the lead character Rahul Jaykar (RJ), and has been cast opposite Shraddha Kapoor. He plays a self-destructive, alcoholic, once-a-heartthrob singer in the movie who is intent on making Shraddha's character, Aarohi, a singing sensation. He succeeds in his desire but loses himself in the process. His role in the movie has been applauded by viewers and critics alike. Aditya's next release will be Ayan Mukerji's upcoming film with Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone, Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani. He has been cast opposite Kalki Koechlin. He will also be seen as the main lead in Gautham Menon's Hindi version of his forthcoming trilingual film, opposite Samantha Ruth Prabhu. The film is also simultaneously being shot with actors Jeeva and Nani and should be set for release sometime during the earlier months of 2013, following a major delay. The film has recently been titled Assi Nabey Poore Sau.[5][6]
