Michelle Rodriguez Known for her hardcore roles in movies like Fast and the Furious and Resident Evil, Michelle&rsquo;s DJ&rsquo;ing skills are on point. The actress often takes to the DJ decks at private parties since a while now and rumour has it that she can spin the disc way better than a lot of other EDM jocks out there.
<img title="Siddhant Kapoor" src="http://images.mid-day.com/images/2015/dec/Siddhant-Kapoor-Dj.jpg" alt="Siddhant Kapoor" />
Siddhant Kapoor Siddhant Kapoor is primarily a DJ and then an actor. While he began his career with Sanjay Gupta&rsquo;s Shootout at Wadala and then played a significant role in Jazbaa as well, it was hard for him to let go of his first love and he still continues mixing it up, quite literally. He is also quite the professional having performed at several big ticket events previously as well. He is gearing up to perform at the Bacardi Enchanted Valley Carnival next if you&rsquo;re keen to hear him.

Shahid Kapoor Talk about being a Jack-of-all-trades. Shahid Kapoor&rsquo;s career has grown in the right direction. That&rsquo;s probably the reason why he has the luxury of kicking back and dabbling in a number of creative interests and its not just dancing and acting that he&rsquo;s good at. Another interest, which is largely hidden from the public eye is DJ&rsquo;ing. In fact, he has a DJ console set up at his home and occasionally DJ&rsquo;s for parties, albeit only for his close friends and family members.
