Hindustan Times. 2013-01-29. Retrieved 2013-02-06.</ref>

Career
Shraddha Kapoor made her acting debut in 2010 with the film Teen Patti alongside Amitabh Bachchan, Madhavan, and Raima Sen. The film tanked at the box office, and her performance went partially unnoticed. For her role as college rockstar Aparna, she had workshops with Royston Abel, Ashley Lobo and Barry John. Shraddha described her character as "a studious girl and is also a guitarist in her college’s music band" and "a very intriguing person."
In 2011, she signed a three-movie contract with Yash Raj Films. However, the contract has been cancelled due to Kapoor signing Mahesh Bhatt's Aashiqui 2. She starred in Y-Films's venture, Luv Ka The End alongside newcomer Taaha Shah. Of her role, Shraddha remarked, "I play the character of Rhea Dialdas who is feminine, quirky but at the same time determined. When she learns that her boyfriend is cheating on her, initially she is heartbroken and shattered. But she gets over the rona-dhona and picks up the baseball bat to get even with him." Despite the film's poor performance at the box office, Shraddha received mostly positive reviews. Rachana of Glamsham Editorial wrote, "Shraddha Kapoor clearly steals the show and it's her performance which lights up the film. She is the star of the film." Kapoor was awarded Stardust Searchlight Award For Best Actress in 2012 for her role in this film.
She was ranked #3 in itimes' poll for the Hottest New Face-Female of 2010.
