'It's my first film so I didn't want to experiment'

Tell us about Love Story 2050.

Love Story 2050 is like the title says. It's a love story in 2050. This was the first title we thought about, three years ago. But it was not a conventional Hindi film title like Yeh Dil Ne Kuch... It's very abrupt. But dad felt that the entire film was spelt out in the title - it's a love story set in the future. And that's what it is. It's a love story spread across two time zones. It's a time travel film.

What's your look in the film like?

I haven't done anything flamboyant. Priyanka went red-haired, and that worked wonders for her character. For me, there's nothing like that. It's my first film so I didn't want to experiment. I just wanted to be myself.

How tough is it shooting in front of a green screen?

It's a killer! First of all, it's my first film. So as a father, he should have been nice to me and helped me. Instead, he puts me in a green room and tells me to pretend that there's a flying car there, suddenly pan left and there's Ayesha's car... and I'm like where is all this happening?

I was shooting a scene with Cutie, the robot. She has to say, 'Karan (my character's name), where are you?' Instead, she goes, 'Kkkkarr...' and gets stuck. And you get really upset because that's your best shot. But you can't even get upset because Cutie is a robot!

So we went through all that. I've trained so much in my first film -- you know, with green screens and robots -- that it's probably going to be easy acting with humans now!
