Shenaz Treasury, the lead actress in the 2003 cult classic Ishq Vishk, recently sat down with News18 Showsha for a nostalgic look back at the film and its impact on her career.
Ishq Vishk star Shenaz Treasury reflects on Shahid Kapoor starrer’s impact on her career: “It didn’t change my career”
Unexpected trajectory after surprise hit:
While Ishq Vishk emerged as a sleeper hit, Shenaz revealed it didn’t propel her career forward as anticipated. She explained, “Surprisingly, it didn’t change my career. I went back to MTV after the movie.” Love then took her on a different path: “I fell in love with a guy and moved to Thailand to host shows for MTV Asia.”
Looking back, Shenaz acknowledges the career implications: “We left India four years after Ishq Vishk, which wasn’t the best decision career-wise. But I was in love. You do crazy things when you’re in love.”
Fond memories and on-set dynamics:
Despite the career detour, Shenaz cherishes her experience on Ishq Vishk. She expressed disbelief at the film’s enduring popularity: “I can’t believe I did Ishq Vishk. It just happened…Now everyone I meet talks about it!” While she’s only seen the film twice, fans have confessed to watching it upwards of 55 times.
Shenaz’s experience working with co-stars Shahid Kapoor and Amrita Rao was a mixed bag. She fondly remembers conversations with Shahid, who encouraged her to pursue acting more seriously. However, her dynamic with Amrita was less amicable: “With Amrita, I don’t really have any fond memories. But I do have some funny ones. I guess we didn’t really hit it off.” She elaborated on a specific incident with a dance instructor, highlighting how their on-set tension might have ironically benefited the film’s portrayal of their characters’ rivalry.
Shahid’s career advice and a different path:
Shahid’s advice to take acting seriously resonated with Shenaz, who ultimately stuck with MTV due to financial stability at the time. “He told me to put in more work and keep going. He was right,” she acknowledged. While her career path diverged from Shahid’s, their conversation remains a significant memory for her.
Shenaz, now a popular travel vlogger, offers a unique perspective on the film’s legacy and her own career journey.
