Shahid tired of being single!

Shahid Kapoor wants to fall in love again. “I’m tired of my single status. May be I will run into my dream girl in Edinburgh,” says the actor who is currently in this picturesque part of UK, shooting for his father, Pankaj Kapoor’s directorial debut Mausam with Sonam Kapoor.

Meanwhile, his long-delayed film, Milenge Milenge with ex-girlfriend Kareena Kapoor opened in theatres last Friday. Prod him on the “They’re back together” promos and the Facebook campaign that invited lovers to publicly forgive their exes online and a bemused Kapoor says, “After shooting a video for the film, I left the country and am clueless about the promotions. I’m sure Mr Kapoor (producer Boney Kapoor) had no malicious intentions,” he says.

So, has he forgiven his ex? “I could do with some forgiveness myself,” he chuckles. “All those who want to forgive me can please apply. As for me, I don’t hold any grudges.” The actor, after his break up in 2007 with Kareena Kapoor, was linked with co-stars Vidya Balan (Kismat Konnection), Priyanka Chopra (Kaminey), Indian tennis star Sania Mirza and more recently with Anushka Sharma (Badmaash Company). Understandably, he denied all of them.

He appeared on Karan Johar’s chat show, Lift Kara De on Sony, and admitted that he was “single and available”. It’s only now that he says he’s tired of being both.

Sonam changes her personality for 'Mausam'

Why she agreed to go into 'mature mode' for the movie

After playing the giddyheaded starry-eyed young lover-girl in all her films so far, including the about-to-be-released 'I Hate Luv Storys', actress Sonam Kapoor in 'Mausam' is all set to play a girl who evolves into a woman in the course of the movie.

Her clothes which are always a source of powerful on-screen personality-transference for her have been worked on at great lengths by designer Anamika Khanna.

And the result, says a member of the crew, is no less than devastating.

Apparently Sonam was initially reluctant to get into the mature mould.

"She had reservations about being bracketed in the maturer mould so early in her career. In all her films so far from 'Saawariya' to 'Thank You', Sonam has played girls her own age and dressed accordingly in what she's comfortable with. The Western clothes that'd transform her into a chic Delhi socialite in 'Aisha' are as much a part of her personality as the salwar-kameez that she wore in 'Delhi 6'."

Apparently Anamika, who has worked earlier with Sonam in 'Delhi 6', has been poring over the designs with Sonam trying to figure out what clothes she's most comfortable in.

Shahid Kapoor, who needed to make a sartorial changeover to play the mature mellow lover in the later part of the film, has also been heard joking about how 'Mausam' has turned him and Sonam into overnight adult stars.

'Mausam' producer Sheetal Talwar said: "Shahid has sported the mature mellow look in 'Jab We Met'. But for Sonam the transformation from girl to woman in 'Mausam' is a challenge. Before she left for Scotland, Sonam wanted to be completely comfortable in her new avatar."
