Actor-director Farhan Akhtar plays a married man in Shaadi Ke Side Effects, and when we asked Farhan if starring in a movie on marriage makes him a relationship guru, his prompt reply was that cinematic representations in this film bear no resemblance to what actually happens in real life.
"No way, it's just a cinematic version of a married couple. It has nothing to do with real life," was Farhan's answer.

On his recent visit to Jaipur, Farhan seemed to be going gaga over his co-star Vidya Balan, saying that it was great working with her, "The film is predominantly about me and Vidya, so we got a lot of time to work together. She is an extremely talented person and a great actor."
Farhan, who will be seen in a comic role for the first time, is both excited and nervous. "It's a bagfull of mixed feelings. I am excited to be sharing screen space with Vidya and a little nervous too, as the release of every new film brings some kind of nervousness. It's nothing unusual," said Farhan.
With the success of Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, Farhan feels that more movies inspired by real people should be made. "Our country has given birth to many unsung heroes, whose stories are still unknown to most of us. We need more efforts to bring their stories to limelight and help in getting their due credit. There is so much more to learn from facts than fiction. Be it politics, art, literature, sports or any other field for that matter, there are so many people whose achievements we are unaware of. It's a remarkable thing that Bollywood filmmakers are opting for such subjects which are highly inspirational."
Farhan, who has a huge fan following, dons several hats - a film maker, writer, director and now a social activist. What does he enjoy the most? "Eventually they are all part of the same person. I enjoy being them all. I love doing everything that connects me with people."
