Vijay Varma calls Kareena Kapoor a ‘switch on/switch off actor’ 

In a recent interview with Film Companion, Vijay Varma spoke about working with Kareena Kapoor. He discussed how she can be discussing matters of food one minute and go on to give the perfect shot in the next. He said, “Kareena is also a very switch off switch on actor. So, I would just talk about food with her because that’s our favourite subject to talk about. We’ll discuss food and then Sujoy will tell us that our shot is ready and immediately she’ll be right there in the scene.”
