Mohit Chauhan gears up for Second Marriage

Actor Mohit Chauhan has dealt with calls meant for his namesake — singer Mohit Chauhan — with a sporty attitude for a long time. In fact, a popular film website lists Mohit's upcoming movie in the singer Mohit's work profile.
But, the actor is unfazed and even laughs when asked about it. He says, "Our name has led to much confusion. I still get calls asking if I can sing and compose music for films. And I am sure he must be getting acting offers from filmmakers thinking it is me. I hope this confusion is put to rest once and for all."
For those still not familiar, Mohit made his acting debut with Rohit Shetty's Zameen. But it was the role of Shah Rukh Khan's best friend in Shimit Amin's Chak De! India that fetched him fame. Chauhan is currently looking forward to his next film Second Marriage Dot Com where he plays a single parent who gets married a second time. It was a challenge for the not-so-old Mohit to play a father to a mature guy and the husband to an elderly woman.
He says, "I felt shy, more so because we were all staying in the flat where we shot the film. For the first few days, I just kept reading my part. It was later while shooting that all of us became friendly. It felt like home then."
Shooting in Delhi on an extremely cold day is an experience from that Mohit says he will never forget. "The shoot was at night. It was quite cold and I was practically shivering. The good thing is that I had to be unconscious in the scene and that worked well for me in that weather," he concludes. Directed by Gaurav Panjwani and produced by Vin Mehta Films, Second Marriage Dot Com releases on August 10.
