00:00Do you think a film needs a lot of time to prepare?
00:30Depends on the character you are playing.
01:00Because his character demanded that.
01:30And meet in the script as well.
01:32Compared to a film.
01:34Both of them are equally fun.
01:38They are equally enjoyable.
01:40In their own way.
01:42And they are equally learning as well.
01:44There is equal amount of learning.
01:46Being able to say something in 2 hours.
01:48With limited amount of limitations.
01:50Is a skill.
01:52For us.
01:54Similarly that is also a skill.
01:56On the other hand.
01:59You have 7, 8, 9, 10 episodes.
02:01Maybe seasons too.
02:03All out ballistic.
02:05About the character.
02:07Both have their own fair share of fun.
02:09Both have their own fair share of enjoyment.
02:17I am actually from Bombay.
02:19My roots are from Bihar.
02:21My origins are from Bihar.
02:23But I am a proper Bombay born lad.
02:25But obviously Bihar is in my blood.
02:27So when it comes out, it comes out.
02:54If I had kept myself here.
02:56I wouldn't have learnt so many things.
03:26As an actor it is very important to travel.
03:28One of my really favourite actors.
03:30Mr. Manav Kaul also emphasizes that.
03:32How much.
03:34I kind of look up to him also.
03:36He is a guy who is always out and about.
03:38Somewhere in the world.
03:40He is probably in Paris.
03:42In a cafe writing his next book.
03:44It is so beautiful.
03:46The things that he writes in his books.
03:48The things that he writes in his plays.
03:50And his performances.
03:52I think it all comes from.
03:54He imbibes and absorbs wherever he goes.
03:56Similarly for me.
03:58I have shot in Patiala.
04:00I have shot somewhere in Kerala.
04:02I have shot in Dharavi.
04:04I have shot in Dongri.
04:06I have shot in.
04:08I have been to Himachal.
04:10I have been to Sikkim.
04:12The kind of people that I have met.
04:16The different kind of characters that come to me.
04:18I don't need a lot of time to get into the skin.
04:20I can get into the skin of a guy from South Bombay also.
04:24And I can get into the skin of a guy from Dongri also.
04:28Similarly I can relate to somebody from North East also.
04:30I can relate to somebody from Goa also.
04:32So.
04:34If your basic is clear.
04:36What happens in travelling.
04:38If you have been to that place.
04:40If you have met that culture.
04:42If you have met the people there.
04:44You will have a little bit of relatability.
04:46I am from Bihar.
04:48I am from Bihar.
04:50I know people from Delhi.
04:52I know people from Rajasthan.
04:54I have shot in Rajasthan.
04:56So.
04:58When a character comes to you.
05:00You don't really need to put in a lot of effort.
05:02You just need to tap into your.
05:06The kind of data that you have in your mind.
05:08And then obviously there is a director.
05:10And there is a writer to guide you.
05:12I consider myself a director and a writer as an actor.
05:14I mean.
05:16I have come here to work.
05:18This is your film. This is your series.
05:20You have hired me. I am your servant.
05:22I have come to work.
05:24I will listen to you as much as I can.
05:26I will give my inputs.
05:28But I will not try to be anal about it.
05:30I am sorry for the language.
05:32Just be that about it.
05:34Which sadly some actors are.
05:36100%
05:38You don't have a passport.
05:40No problem.
05:42You can go to India.
05:44People from all around the world come to India.
05:46Because the kind of diversity.
05:48As you just mentioned.
05:50The kind of diversity.
05:52Every 100 kms you will get a culture shock.
05:54It's a fact.
05:56We are from Bombay.
05:58We speak Hindi.
06:00In Kerala.
06:02We don't understand Malayalam.
06:04You go to Tamil Nadu.
06:06You won't understand Tamil.
06:08Completely different culture.
06:10You go to North East.
06:12We speak Nepali in Sikkim.
06:14I think within India.
06:16There is so much to learn.
06:18As an actor, as a filmmaker, as a writer.
06:20As a musician also maybe.
06:22Any kind of artist if you are.
06:24If you can't go out.
06:26No problem.
06:28You can go to India.
06:30If you can go to India.
06:32We don't really need a lot of budget also.
06:34We are very beautiful people.
06:36We are very good people.
06:38We are hospitable people.
06:40It's in our culture.
06:42If you go to Goa.
06:44Someone will keep you at home.
06:46If you go to Kashmir.
06:48Someone will keep you at home.
06:50If you don't have money.
06:52You can't go out.
06:54You can take a local bus.
06:56You can take a train.
06:58We all have done it.
07:00You will reach somewhere.
07:02Someone will feed you.
07:04Someone will give you a roof.
07:06Exactly.
07:08These are the things which help you learn.
07:10Help you grow.
07:12As any kind of an artist.
07:14Passport is expired.
07:16No problem.
07:24I think to reconnect with yourself.
07:26In my opinion.
07:28Self awareness.
07:30You should know how much water you are in.
07:40If you know this.
07:42You should have acceptance.
07:44I think I don't know myself.
07:46I still think that I don't know myself completely.
07:50Get rid of that.
07:52Get rid of your ego.
07:54Your ego has an image of you.
07:56That is not the reality.
07:58Get rid of the ego.
08:00Get rid of the entitlement.
08:02Know yourself.
08:04Take criticism.
08:06Acceptance.
08:08Know where you belong.
08:12You should have a big heart.
08:14Make yourself better.
08:16To connect with yourself.
08:18To connect with yourself.
08:20You need to cut off from the world.
08:22For me that is travelling.
08:24I go on a holiday for 10 days.
08:28I am off my social media.
08:32I have a normal connection with the world.
08:34But I am with my friends.
08:36I am connected with nature.
08:38I am in the mountains.
08:40Travelling is like that.
08:42Once in a while meditation.
08:44Exercise is a very good self connection for me.
08:46When I am in the gym.
08:48I am in the gym.
08:50With my weights and my music.
08:52I feel each and every muscle of my body.
08:54When I am working out.
08:56All of these things are my activities.
08:58That I do for self connection.
09:00Take time off.
09:02Spend time with your friends and family.
09:04Have a good conversation with your family.
09:06If you have kids.
09:08If you have nephews and nieces.
09:10Your own children.
09:12Spend good quality time with them.
09:14Go out for a movie.
09:16Go out for a stroll with your girlfriend or boyfriend.
09:18Or your brother or sister.
09:20Go out for a nice meal.
09:22These basic things of living a normal life.
09:26Bollywood and acting.
09:28Can't be everything for you.
09:30We need to cut off from that.
09:32Time and again.
09:34As an actor, as a filmmaker, as a director.
09:36Whatever you want to call it.
09:38Only then it will keep you grounded.
09:40And if you are grounded.
09:42You will keep creating good things.
09:44Otherwise you won't even know when you will be in the air.
09:50Nothing as such.
09:52Whatever is said and done.
09:54You have pretty much asked me everything.
09:56Related to Superboys.
09:58I have some work coming up.
10:00I will talk about that.
10:02A series is coming.
10:04Munawar Farooqui is the lead in that.
10:06I am the parallel lead.
10:08It also has a really great bunch of actors.
10:10Apart from both of us.
10:12I have worked in a Telugu film.
10:14Nani sir's film is coming.
10:16I have a small part in that.
10:18It's my first Telugu film.
10:20I look forward to working in Telugu cinema even more after that.
10:22Vikas Behl sir's film is coming.
10:24I have done a cameo in that.
10:26Amit Siddhant Satyavedi.
10:28Who also happens to be a very old friend of mine.
10:30From back in our struggle days.
10:32Vamika is the female lead in that.
10:34The film is called Darwaza.
10:36I have also done an Indo-Vietnamese film.
10:38A collaboration between India and Vietnam.
10:40It's called Love in Vietnam.
10:42Which has Shantanu Maheshwari, me.
10:44Gulshan Grover.
10:46And Mr. Raat Kazmi.
10:48I think they will be selected in Cannes.
10:52When collaboration films are released.
10:54They give screenings to them.
10:56I hope you will see me in Cannes.
10:58If I have to go this year.
11:00I had to go to TIFF last year.
11:02Because of Malegaon.
11:04These are the upcoming projects.
11:06I am starting a beautiful film with Yudhli.
11:08It's an out and out comedy.
11:10With a great bunch of actors.
11:12There are good things happening.
11:14A great bunch of actors.
11:16The writers are 24 years old.
11:20They have written a beautiful script.
11:22Very crisp.
11:24Very cut to cut.
11:26I have taken a pay cut for that film.
11:28Just because I got blown away by the script.
11:30It's such a great script.
11:32The director is also fantastic.
11:34He is Ali Abbas Zafar.
11:36He has been his associate for a long time.
11:38His name is Ravi Chabria.
11:40His work is starting next month.
11:42I am just hoping that after Malegaon.
11:44I get to work with some great
11:46amazing directors.
11:48In our industry.
11:50I am looking forward to work with
11:52amazing writers and directors.
11:54Like Bijoy sir.
11:56Debakar sir.
11:58Abhikram Aditya Motwane.
12:00Vishal sir.
12:02Adhiraag sir has left.
12:04He will have to stay in the south.
12:06And also hopefully.
12:08Set my foot and establish myself.
12:10To some extent.
12:12In Telugu cinema as well.
