Rhea Kapoor has revealed that she has no interest in becoming an actor.
The 23-year-old producer, whose father Anil and sister Sonam are both actors, said that she prefers life behind the camera.
"I just fell in love with production. I could never act like my father or sister. I cannot even give a proper photo shoot. I would have run away if I had to act. I totally enjoyed producing Aisha. I will handle the Anil Kapoor Film Company for at least the next two years," Kapoor told Real Bollywood.
"One evening, suddenly Ayan (Mukerji) asked me to assist him on Wake Up Sid. My dad gave me the go ahead signal. I also got Aisha around that time. I just agreed without thinking of anything else when my dad asked me if I wanted to work on it.
"I never thought that he would go off to shoot in the US and I would be managing all on my own. I got scared but I’m happy that I could do it."
Aisha, Kapoor's debut production, will be released on August 6.
