Though it’s not a bio-pic, Ken Ghosh’s movie Chance Pe Dance has a lot of slices of the real life of the film’s leading star Shahid Kapoor.
For instance, in the musical film, Shahid’s character has to face a lot of rejection during his struggling days. The same was also true for the actor who had many doors slammed on his face before he got the much-sought break in Ishq Vishk.
Another similarity is that in the film Shahid’s character drives a run-down car and even lives in it. The same was the case with Shahid as well when he used to drive an old car (though he never lived in it) during his struggling days in the industry. In fact, an instance from Shahid’s life when he played a tree in a school play as been recreated as it is in the film.
But the most striking similarity is the love for dance that Shahid’s character has in the film. It’s no secret that Shahid himself has been a terrific dancer from the start of his career and dancing is a no less passion for him than acting.
In ‘Chance Pe Dance’, Shahid plays a struggler who participates in a reality show, and slowly emerges as a dancing superstar. The film has Genelia D'Souza as his ladylove.
