'Ek Villain', also starring Sidharth Malhotra and Riteish Deshmukh, will release next Friday.
"Mohit Suri is my biggest critic. He points out my mistakes on my face without any hesitation. He knows how to extract the best from me. At the same time he gives me enough space to perform," said Shraddha.
The actress, who was in the Capital to promote the film, has also lent her voice for the track 'Teri Galiyan'.
Shraddha is happy that the song is being liked but does not plan to take up playback singing as a career option.
"I didn't expect people will like the song so much. My friends in the industry are calling me and congratulating me. Even Aditya (Roy Kapoor) called me and said he listens to my song everyday," she said.
"I feel like I had the best start because I tasted failure at the beginning and it helped me to improve as an actress and at the same time it also prepared me to handle the success of 'Aashiqui 2'.
"If I would have bagged success in my first film I would not have known how to handle failure after that. Now I can handle the ups and downs of my career," she said.
