  • Girish Kumar, who is making his Bollywood debut with Ramaiya Vastavaiya, is hopeful that he will strike the right chord with his upcoming family drama.
  • Girish, 24, who is playing the lead along with Shruti Haasan in the Prabhu Deva directed film, believes it is a great time in the industry for newcomers like him.
  • "I was trying to make my debut for sometime but I was not getting a good script. I am lucky to have made my foray in the industry at a time when newcomers are getting good response," Girish said.
  • The actor, who is the son of producer Ramesh Taurani, said bagging the opportunity to star in the film was easy but he worked hard to fit the role.
  • "Prabhu sir wanted that I should take dance workshops before I started shooting for the film because my character is spontaneous. I took eight months of rigorous dance training from choreographer Inder Sharma while he was shooting for Rowdy Rathore," Girish said.
  • Ramaiya Vastavaiya, which means Ram will you come, is a romantic-family drama. Girish plays an NRI, who eventually falls in love with an Indian girl.

  • In the film, Girish will have a stylish entry scene.
  • "There were many ideas for my entry but we selected surfing sequence for my introduction scene. I was trained under a South African fitness trainer for making my body suitable for the gaming sequence," he said.
