Ridhima Sud, with her bangs and soulful eyes, is getting appreciation and applause from the global film fraternity for her sparkling debut as Noorie Sood in Zoya’s Dil Dhadakne Do.
The Delhi girl who has a double-major in Political Science and Economics from New York University feels very lucky to have landed up in this big Bollywood movie with a cast of stalwarts and working for her favourite director.
“I come from a conservative Punjabi family who couldn’t believe a girl from their clan had an acting plan. My father is a businessman. But my mother’s family including my mother, is filled with academicians. Interest in acting is the last thing they expected from me,” says Ridhima who took off to NY for a degree before arriving in Bollywood.

I remember looking up Arjun Mathur when I saw him play the part of the struggling stage actor in Zoya Akhtar's Luck By Chance. Impressed by the ease with which he played the part of Abhimanyu, I was not surprised to hear that the young actor was a part of Raja Menon's critically acclaimed, Barah Aana. As the young Aman who comes to Mumbai in hopes to fulfill his dreams of making it big, he has managed to create much buzz in the industry and heighten expectations for himself. Talented, he is but there is much more to Arjun Mathur than meets the naked eye. Honest, fun and extremely friendly, this is one actor to watch out for. And as for his performance in Barah Aana? Top-notch. Mathur has managed to keep his own in a film which housed the likes of Naseeruddin Shah and Vijay Raaz in prominent roles.
