She specifically highlighted the challenges she encountered during the early stages of her career and how this project helped her regain her footing.

Initial Career Struggles and the Significance of Tu Ya Main

Shanaya Kapoor's entry into Bollywood has been marked by significant delays compared to her contemporaries. Her initially planned debut film, 'Bedhadak', which featured her alongside Lakshya, was shelved for undisclosed reasons. This setback resulted in a delay of approximately three years in the commencement of her career. Subsequently, when she made her debut with 'Aankhon Ki Gustakhiyan', the film didn't achieve the expected commercial success at the box office, while however, the release of 'Tu Ya Main' during the Valentine's period has provided a new trajectory to her career, garnering positive feedback from the audience.

Character Avni and Regaining Self-Confidence

In her social media post, Shanaya Kapoor admitted that 'Tu Ya Main' came into her life at a time when she was struggling with a lack of self-confidence. She noted that the film provided her with more than she had anticipated. Speaking about her character 'Avni', she mentioned that the role taught her a great deal. According to Shanaya, playing Avni inspired her to embrace a more resilient and 'badass' persona. She reflected on how the character navigates various challenges within the narrative, which in turn helped her grow stronger on a personal level.

Gratitude Towards Director Bejoy Nambiar and Producer Aanand L Rai

Shanaya expressed special gratitude towards the film's director, Bejoy Nambiar, and producer, Aanand L Rai. Addressing director Bejoy Nambiar, she wrote that she would always be grateful for the opportunity to bring Avni to life and for his belief in her abilities. She stated that Nambiar pushed her to become the best version of herself. Regarding producer Aanand L Rai, Shanaya acknowledged his support for a story that wasn't an obvious or conventional choice, while she emphasized that Rai took a chance on a new actor for a complex and layered role, for which she remains deeply appreciative.

Experience Working With Co-Star Adarsh Gourav

Discussing her experience with co-star Adarsh Gourav, Shanaya highly praised his talent and professionalism. She reminisced about their on-screen chemistry and the time spent on set. Describing Adarsh as 'the best', she lauded his acting skills and mentioned that he made her feel comfortable from the very first day of shooting. This supportive environment, she noted, allowed her to enhance her own performance. Shanaya concluded by thanking the entire cast and crew for the long nights that turned into mornings, describing the entire production journey as a 'wild ride'.
