Farhan Akhtar started his acting career in 2008 [Rock On], followed it up with Luck By Chance in 2009, experimented with Karthik Calling Karthik [2010] and then hit a high with Zindagi Na Milegi Dobaara [2011]. Post that, he delivered a major hit with Bhaag Milkha Bhaag [2013].
Another interesting factor about Farhan and his Bollywood career is the fact that in his nine films that have released in last eight years, he has always seen a new leading lady opposite him. This is what makes Rock On 2 special since this time around, he is paired with a new leading lady, Shraddha Kapoor.
- Rock On!! – Prachi Desai
- Luck By Chance – Konkona Sen Sharma
- Karthik Calling Karthik – Deepika Padukone
- Zindagi Na Milegi Dobaara – Ariadna Cabrol
- Bhaag Milkha Bhaag – Sonam Kapoor
- Shaadi Ke Side Effects – Vidya Balan
- Dil Dhadakne Do – Priyanka Chopra
- Wazir – Aditi Rao Hydari
- Rock On 2 – Shraddha Kapoor
One waits to see though if there is a romantic angle per se between Shraddha Kapoor and Farhan Akhtar since latter is married to Prachi Desai in the film. Also, the promos give an impression of a band leader (played by Farhan) bringing a new member (Shraddha) into the fold and encouraging her to deliver her best on stage. Still, indications are pretty much there that as the leading couple in the film, Farhan Akhtar and Shraddha Kapoor would get maximum screen time.
Now, one looks forward to the kind of chemistry that the duo brings to screen on 11th November, the day this Eros and Excel film releases all over.
