Everyone is aware that landing a role in a Bollywood film is no easy task. Some actors just disappear after their films. But fortunately the newbie Shivaleeka Oberoi is not in that list as the actress has bagged her second film even before the release of her first film.
Shivaleeka is making her debut opposite Amrish Puri’s grandson Vardhan Puri in the upcoming film Yeh Saali Aashiqui which is coming on 22 November. But before the film could release, she has landed a role in another film.
Mumbai Mirror reports Shivaleeka will be playing Vidyut Jammwal’s wife in the Faruk Kabir-directed action-romance Khuda Hafiz, which revolves around the couple, and is produced by Kumar Mangat and Abhishek Pathak.
“I wanted to find my second project before my debut released, so two-and-a-half months ago, when I was auditioning for other films, I got a call for Khuda Hafiz. I auditioned and last month, I was informed that I had bagged the part. Shooting for my portions began in October end. The film is based on a true story, and will be shot in Mumbai and Lucknow besides Uzbekistan,” she told the daily.
Shivaleeka has previously assisted Sajid Nadiadwala on the Salman Khan and Jacqueline Fernandez-starrer Kick and Sajid-Farhad on Housefull 3.
The actress has even shot a couple of sequences for the film where she will be seen doing some action. “For Khuda Hafiz, I have already shot for 10 days in sub-zero temperature. My part is more girl-next-door, but I will also be doing some action with Vidyut, which involves a lot of hand-to-hand combat and has been choregraphed by Andy Long, who worked with Vidyut on Commando 3,” Shivaleeka informed, adding that Vidyut helped her with the sequences.
She further added, “This schedule will wrap up by the month-end. Then, we start shooting in Mumbai from December.”
