And today we have actor Sooraj 15 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:58,520 Shekame with us. Hi, Sooraj. 16 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:03,800 Hello. So since you're an actor, 17 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:09,280 choreographer, and you do a lot of stuff, but you want to be 18 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:12,560 called as an actor, like that is your main stuff what you do. 19 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:14,200 I want to be called as an artist. 20 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,600 I mean, I am called as an artist. 21 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:18,560 It includes everything. Yeah, Actor, writer. 22 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:23,320 It also means artist like. Is a part of an artist. 23 00:01:23,320 --> 00:01:26,680 There are many artists, you know, there are musical artists, 24 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:28,680 many, many type of artists. So yeah. 25 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:34,120 So like, why did you choose acting as a career? 26 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,080 Like don't you feel that there is a little bit of risk in it? 27 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:42,400 Risk in what sense? If you don't make it to the 28 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,120 industry, you made it to the industry. 29 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,080 But some people who don't make it to the. 30 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:52,520 Industry, of course. Definitely there is, but this is 31 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:54,160 what. You have to do research about 32 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:55,360 your character. Yeah, a lot. 33 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,280 I mean, we have to practice our craft. 34 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,080 We have to read a lot. We have to be observant every 35 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:04,120 time. But this, it's again about 36 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:08,360 liking, you know, Genco scientist banna hota hai. 37 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:15,440 And there are many, you know, obvious things about this field. 38 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,920 Just a glamour. Ogia, Leisure, Leisure one. 39 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:23,600 Of the reasons why you chose to. It was a very important driving 40 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:27,680 reason for me when I decided I was 15 or 16 years old. 41 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:31,240 Yeah. So for me it was of course, 42 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,400 glamour to Tahita Ki. I want to be known. 43 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:38,480 I want to be, you know, loved by people the way other actors are. 44 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,560 Jenny De Kima, Baraoa. So that was one of the important 45 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,600 reasons. But eventually, as I started 46 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:47,800 doing it, as I started working in, you know, the theatres, 47 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:52,800 shows, stage shows and films, web series, so I discovered 48 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:57,240 acting what it actually is. So it acting in itself is a very 49 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,560 fun process. So I fell in love with that 50 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:00,200 eventually. But. 51 00:03:03,920 --> 00:03:15,960 When you chose, I'll do this. Then my every plan was inclined 52 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,560 towards Plan A. So MATLAB I used to even after 53 00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:22,320 extraction. You know after that big break, I 54 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:26,280 used to work in nightclubs I I worked in call centers. 55 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:28,600 But I did that just for my sustainance. 56 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,880 Ki Mujabataki. I'm going to be working on sets 57 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,200 soon. Shoot Karuna member Jelly JAB 58 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,240 Tak Nihora Tak for my financial sustain. 59 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,720 That was like optimism, sort of. Yeah, definitely. 60 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:44,680 It was optimism and Matlab. I'd never thought of it as a 61 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:50,360 career. If not this, then this survival 62 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:55,120 I can do about anything. I have good command over my 63 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,000 language. There are many things which I 64 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:01,040 can do without a degree also and I can excel in it eventually. 65 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:06,200 But acting. So there was no Plan B. 66 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,280 What I feel is Plan B, who you take a back seat. 67 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,160 You take that plan A very. Lightly, Lightly. 68 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:16,560 Not exactly lightly. But you also have that Plan B in 69 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:23,240 your mind When you don't have that, so that you know, pushes 70 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:29,960 you, drives you and gets most out of you, you're going to go 71 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:36,920 back in Pune. And that's, that's what I had in 72 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,160 my mind. So luckily it worked out. 73 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:44,080 So yeah. One question that that is like I 74 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:50,160 think everybody wants to know OK, Bollywood may like how a 75 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:55,360 girl stuff like did you like like someone Dharani kebab. 76 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:57,600 In the film industry, are you asking? 77 00:05:02,280 --> 00:05:05,680 No, but like you had something.

Were there times when you felt 94 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,120 key? Like when you were not happy. 95 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:15,240 Like heart breaks. Hi, it's Pat. 96 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:23,240 I have been heartbroken once once, which I remember of maybe 97 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,360 twice. I'm not sure of the second one. 98 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:36,360 So I had one recently, some 5-6 months ago, and then I guess I 99 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:41,160 was 1718. I'm not sure exactly. 100 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:48,000 I'm not sure Ki wo heartbreak Thayani because I mean, I'm not 101 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:48,400 sure. Feelings. 102 00:06:48,840 --> 00:06:51,520 Can be confusing. Yeah, yeah, they can be 103 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:57,840 confusing, right? Yeah, there's a lot of you had 104 00:06:57,840 --> 00:07:00,880 your. First heartbreak, You said 1718. 105 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,840 I'm not sure if it was my heartbreak or not. 106 00:07:03,840 --> 00:07:06,520 That's what I'm saying. It might be then it might be my 107 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,640 first heartbreak. But yeah, I think I consider 108 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:12,280 this recent one my first. But again, sometimes I go, you 109 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,000 know, track back and think that maybe it was that. 110 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:18,560 So I'm not really sure actually, heartbreak. 111 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:23,240 I think this was the one. But yeah, your heart gets broken 112 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:28,520 when you are in love, right? So I'm just confused with that, 113 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,280 that how many times I've been in love. 114 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:31,960 I've been in love once, definitely. 115 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:36,240 That I know for sure, but just before that I have a blurred 116 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,200 vision of it. So Tanakuch, so Chani Minoski. 117 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,360 But yeah, so I understand the case. 118 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:46,560 Open to like dating people outside volleyball like normal 119 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:48,840 girls. Yeah, definitely. 120 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:53,400 I mean, it doesn't matter to me that she should be from the film 121 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,200 industry. But you are from the film 122 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,120 industry, right? So you might have like certain 123 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,600 expectations. She should be able to do this, 124 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:05,440 this, this. That doesn't need, you know, 125 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,000 there's no need for her to be from the film industry. 126 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:11,320 Like what? The boxes I have to take in my 127 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:15,280 girl, you know, if I want to be with someone, she doesn't have 128 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,680 to be from film industry to fulfill those boxes. 129 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,400 She can be working in a corporate, she can be doing 130 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:24,120 something else. She can be part of the industry. 131 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,880 It it doesn't have to be. It is not related to her 132 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,280 profession at all. She can be from the industry. 133 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:32,679 Like, yeah, if she will be from the industry, she will 134 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,480 understand. You know my side of the world 135 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:36,320 better. That is what? 136 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:42,360 I'm saying yeah, but even if she does not, I think it's my not 137 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,280 job. But I would like to, you know, I 138 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:49,680 feel that it's it should be me who should be, you know, letting 139 00:08:49,680 --> 00:08:52,200 her know about my world, explaining my world to her, 140 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:55,880 getting her into my world. And I expect the same from her. 141 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:59,760 You know, we should understand each other's words and then we 142 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:04,240 should try to live together. That can be done. 143 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,120 I mean, it's not that difficult. I don't see it. 144 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,240 Like you live in Mumbai, right? So. 145 00:09:10,560 --> 00:09:15,960 How is Mumbai life like recently our not recently last year our 146 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:22,880 CEO went to some function in Mumbai, I guess Tedex and he was 147 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:26,200 very fascinated by the lifestyle there. 148 00:09:26,560 --> 00:09:31,920 So since you live there, so Akili to Dal chawal sort of 149 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:33,680 hair. Hi Anne. 150 00:09:33,680 --> 00:09:36,000 I mean, I prefer Bhubaneshwar, honestly. 151 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,760 Like I love Bhubaneshwar because yeah, it gives the city vibes as 152 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:43,760 well, which I like, and it has at peace as well. 153 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:49,760 So I'm originally from Pune. So in Pune, if you ask me, it 154 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:54,320 has best of the both worlds. It has good atmosphere, climate, 155 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,720 not that much of A pollution, not that much of, you know, 156 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:04,040 people population. It can be, you know, it can be 157 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:08,680 as fast and PC as Mumbai also and it can be as relaxed as any 158 00:10:08,680 --> 00:10:11,480 other town of India. It gives that wives and it's 159 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,600 cool, very cool at this time point of time. 160 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:18,720 So yeah, it's like that. So Mumbai, for me it's a bit 161 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:23,880 challenging to be in Mumbai because A traffic then B 162 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:28,880 pollution then C the atmosphere. But again that place is feeding 163 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:30,240 me. So I have. 164 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,920 I don't have much complaints but. 165 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,680 Is it also because the life is so fast then? 166 00:10:35,680 --> 00:10:37,000 It's very fast. It's you. 167 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:41,280 You can't even tell when the day passes, the night comes. 168 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:45,920 You can't figure out because you get tired this easily that you 169 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,200 go to sleep by 10/10/30 at Mumbai 10. 30. 170 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:53,080 Yeah, it's a very good thing that you get to bed because you 171 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,920 don't have any energy left. You have to travel, You have to 172 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,920 be in the traffic, that ruckus. All the things going on. 173 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:00,760 You have to work. There are many things. 174 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:04,320 Mumbai gets you tired, Mumbai keeps you on your toes, which is 175 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:07,760 sometimes you need in life. Sometimes it can be thrilling as 176 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:09,280 well. Yeah, definitely. 177 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:12,320 It can be thrilled. MATLAB, it's not like thrilling, 178 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,720 exactly. It's tiring most of the times, 179 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:19,000 but when you have to get some kind of work done, Mumbai is the 180 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,640 best place for that because it keeps you on your toes there. 181 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,160 Every everyone around you is running and it makes you feel 182 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,840 like, what am I doing? I shouldn't be sitting around, I 183 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,600 should be doing some stuff I. Should be doing something. 184 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:33,760 Right, exactly. So you don't have that in other 185 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,840 cities, like I don't know about Bhubaneswar, but I don't see 186 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,160 much traffic around here. People seem more relaxed. 187 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:43,000 You might know better. The traffic is there, but I 188 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:44,960 don't think it it is. You can't compare it. 189 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:50,200 Annoying as exactly. No, they just, you know, pick me 190 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,440 up from airport to my hotel. Yeah, it was like 2025 191 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,720 kilometers. The distance was they covered it 192 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:57,760 in 30 minutes. It's nothing. 193 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:01,760 We take 30 minutes for five kilometer distance for in 194 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,800 Mumbai. So it's. 195 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:09,040 So that's how the difference is. So since Mumbai is such a 196 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:12,360 thrilling place and everything, have you done anything thrilling 197 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,880 or like adventurous sort of there? 198 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,200 What? What do you mean by adventurous 199 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,000 now? See my adventure. 200 00:12:19,560 --> 00:12:22,160 I have a 17 year old. My adventure is keeping 201 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:25,280 tuitions, not telling my parents and coming here to shoot a 202 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,840 podcast. OK, that is, I have done that. 203 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,640 But your thrilling must be something different, basically. 204 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:36,680 I mean, not much thrilling. Everyone in Mumbai pretty much 205 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,200 does the same thing. They meet at someone's place, 206 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:45,120 they party then or either they go out and party and work. 207 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,280 That's pretty much it. Like there's nothing thrilling. 208 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:53,040 Thrilling in like school. But Mumbai may, I don't remember 209 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,200 as such a coffee thrilling cheese have. 210 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,000 Done something which you can tell on camera. 211 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:05,240 Coffee. Cheese incidents Khana khana ke 212 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,000 baat meri kuch dost Ek BAE PE hum teen. 213 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:13,400 Look, we were just out there strolling. 214 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:22,320 We skipped the city. We went from Pune to Satara, 215 00:13:22,680 --> 00:13:27,480 from Satara to somewhere else. We skipped an entire city and we 216 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,440 you know drove around for like 4 or five hours. 217 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:37,240 So kilometre comes because we were young at that time also we 218 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:41,120 were young who but I was 19 or something like that back then 219 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:44,240 and I had time like lots of time on my hand. 220 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:50,640 We were just like, so that was one of the things. 221 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:58,240 How did you come?

Independence since 1516. 227 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:23,480 Yeah. What do you? 228 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:27,760 I mean, not exactly independent, but I've been working when I was 229 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,600 1516 Taapsee the. Industrial. 230 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,400 Yeah, I used to dance.

But you could manage your own 237 00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,560 finances. Yeah, yeah, I've I've been 238 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,200 managing my own finances since then. 239 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,080 Finances. Say I want to ask this question. 240 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:10,040 We don't exactly manage our finances that efficiently. 241 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:12,280 Take care. I'm a spendthrift. 242 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:16,800 He's a spendthrift. OK, so how you used to manage 243 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:17,840 your finance? I don't. 244 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:21,960 Never ask me about managing so you What I meant by managing 245 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,520 finances was I was taking care of my needs with. 246 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:28,360 My I'm asking how do you spend like you save some part or 247 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:31,560 nothing? I think of saving, I think I 248 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:35,360 will save. I try of saving, but I do all 249 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:37,920 that in my mind. Same. 250 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:46,240 I mean it's like when someone asks for money, I give it and I 251 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:51,440 don't ask it back. I can't, I can't, so I can't ask 252 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,000 for it back. I feel ashamed. 253 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,920 I don't know why, Mary, but I feel a because I can't ask. 254 00:15:55,920 --> 00:16:00,480 You can't ask people. Most people will not. 255 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:04,640 Give that back. That's true. 256 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,240 That's true. But I mean movie. 257 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:11,920 So even you can't save money, so it's. 258 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:14,200 Not just. I'm sorry, I have to I'll have 259 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:17,200 to look. I mean my accountant does a 260 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:22,680 little bit but he manages most of my earnings from my you know 261 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:28,000 film division and all that feels but eventually mere pasi anir. 262 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:34,760 So we'll spend. OK, what do you think about this 263 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:40,080 recent animal controversy he bought recently? 264 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:44,600 Parliament maybe about kisi and pini kaitiki I she she's a 265 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,480 woman. So she said that my daughter and 266 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,320 her friends went to see the movie and they came out crying 267 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:53,840 because there is so much of violence and hatred, the way 268 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:58,880 he's treating Rashmika in the movie like his wife and in Kabhi 269 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:04,280 Singh as well. So like, what are your thoughts? 270 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,240 The daughter of that MP, was she underage or over age? 271 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:11,560 She said she was in college, so I guess. 272 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:14,800 I mean, yeah, so I don't know about Animal. 273 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:18,520 I did not like that film much because it was very, very, very 274 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:23,400 violent, which was not needed. The conflict wasn't that strong 275 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:24,960 for the reaction to be that strong. 276 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:28,119 So other film case of Sadiqi Jata, I did not like it much. 277 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,400 There were some scenes which were good. 278 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:32,520 I'm talking about the film aspect right now. 279 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:35,120 Cafe scenes, me, choreography, Achiti. 280 00:17:35,120 --> 00:17:36,560 The song choices were really good. 281 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:41,160 Action was decent. Cinematography Cafe Achiti. 282 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:48,400 But yeah, I mean the treatment that was given to the women in 283 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:52,800 the film, it has been like that in Sandeep Reddy Wanga's film. 284 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:56,040 It's not a new thing. I mean in Kabhi Singh it was 285 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:57,920 still bearable. It was still OK. 286 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:03,560 And but in Animal, it was, yeah, it was taken to the next level. 287 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:08,600 And I don't think it was needed to, like he needed to do it that 288 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:12,520 much because every actress, like even if you watch the film, 289 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:19,960 every part of the film has a woman in it and she has been, 290 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:23,880 you know, treated as an object or maybe treated in a very ill 291 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:27,640 way or bad way. It happens. 292 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:29,680 It happens in societies. I'm not saying it does not 293 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:31,200 happen. It might be happening. 294 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:34,920 And if you're putting that out on screen, it's fine. 295 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,840 I mean, not exactly fine, but it's like it's part of the 296 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:39,320 society. Because the director was 297 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:43,000 justifying the same thing in an interview, saying if you can't 298 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,480 hit your woman that's wrong, cuss words, then you are not in 299 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:48,200 love. It's conditional then. 300 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:52,120 It might be from personal experience, we don't know that 301 00:18:52,120 --> 00:18:55,960 and it might be OK like if it is what it is for you, if it works 302 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:58,880 for you and your partner, then we are no one to say have a say 303 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:00,920 in it. But I don't think that's true 304 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:04,520 and that should be the case. I mean violence, physical 305 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:07,800 violence is not at all acceptable in any relationship, 306 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:11,800 any at all. That's another thing. 307 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:16,800 Yeah, but no physical violence physically. 308 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:21,240 Violence, violence shouldn't be solution to anything. 309 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:27,400 If you talk about Kabir Singh now, Kabir Singh wasn't that 310 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:28,560 violent. Yeah, the character was 311 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:32,080 disturbed. The character was in too Gray to 312 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,880 blackish shade. And if you personally ask me, I 313 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,320 don't want to be Kabir Singh or I do not admire that character. 314 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:40,840 But yet again, you can't say that, you know, do not watch 315 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:44,800 this film because that film depicted a part of society which 316 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:46,920 prevails. There are people, there are 317 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:50,120 couples like that and things are, you know, that's how the 318 00:19:50,120 --> 00:19:52,480 things are, even when I'm not justifying it. 319 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:56,040 But that's how they have been violent with each other and they 320 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:57,320 have been happy in that relationship. 321 00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:01,040 It depends upon them now if it's right or not, it's totally 322 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:04,800 another debate, but it happens. It happens. 323 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:08,080 And that's what he tried to depict in Kabir Singh or Arjun 324 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,080 Reddy. Don't you think a lot of youth 325 00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:13,480 is getting influenced by this? Because when Kabir Singh came 326 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:15,280 out, we were in Class 8, I guess. 327 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:20,360 So a lot of my friends were doing the stuff that Kabir Singh 328 00:20:20,360 --> 00:20:24,520 did in that movie that and made ice and all this, actually 329 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,680 trying those stuff. So I think it influences a lot 330 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:29,520 of young minds. Especially so again, it was an 331 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:30,720 adult film you shouldn't have watched. 332 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:32,760 That because we. All are underage. 333 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:38,040 So back in 80s and 90s, at that times you can say cinema was the 334 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:42,200 only medium to influence a large scale of population in India and 335 00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:46,680 newspapers till a point. But cinema was, yeah, we could 336 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:50,680 have, you know, held cinema responsible at that time because 337 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:54,120 that's that was the most watched thing at that time. 338 00:20:54,120 --> 00:20:56,040 And people used to get influenced by that. 339 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:58,000 But right now that's not the case. 340 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:01,000 There's OTT, which is available to everyone. 341 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,760 There's YouTube. There's there are many, many 342 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:08,840 things right now which are influencing, you know, people 343 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,920 and is shaping every person right now. 344 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,120 So you can't just hold a film accountable for that. 345 00:21:15,120 --> 00:21:19,000 I don't think so. But yeah, in some cases, like if 346 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:23,120 you say animal then that is a bit extreme is what I feel is 347 00:21:23,120 --> 00:21:25,960 what my opinion is. I think that it's easily movies 348 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,120 are like easily accessible to people. 349 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:32,640 So for you going to the theaters, booking the tickets, 350 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,080 sitting in the film for continuously 3 hours, is that 351 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:39,360 easily accessible or just getting up from your bed rolling 352 00:21:39,360 --> 00:21:40,640 over? Movies and Otts, right? 353 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,480 Yeah, so when it comes to televisions, I'm pretty sure 354 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:45,520 that they might be edited or cut down. 355 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,360 The scenes might be cut down where it they're shown a harsh 356 00:21:48,360 --> 00:21:50,960 violence or something which is misogynistic, which is not 357 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:52,880 accepted. I'm pretty sure they might be 358 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:54,960 trimmed down. If not, then that should That is 359 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:59,000 the wrong thing, definitely. But on OTT, again, it is already 360 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:03,600 written that the films are adulterated, then they should 361 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:04,880 be. There should be parental 362 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,120 control. And if you are adult enough to 363 00:22:07,120 --> 00:22:09,440 watch that film, then you are adult enough to make your own 364 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:11,640 decisions, you know, think by your own self. 365 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:17,560 You are, you know, you know what to be influenced by and what not 366 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:20,520 to be influenced by. But still, if we consider that 367 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:23,400 these are the mediums to be influenced by, it's not just the 368 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:25,480 one medium. I mean, if I stop you right now 369 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:29,200 from watching the film on the OTT, you'll hear it from someone 370 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:33,080 else that this happened in the film and it was so cool by his 371 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:34,920 view. We can't stop that entire thing. 372 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:38,040 No, it is a part of society and we are just depicting what the 373 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,320 part of society is. That is another debate that if 374 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,320 it is right or wrong for me personally, Kabhi Singh, I don't 375 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,920 want to be Kabhi Singh or I would would not like a Kabhi 376 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:48,320 Singh around me. I did not like that character. 377 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:50,480 People might have liked that character. 378 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,240 I did not like that character. If you asked me if I was to 379 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:56,200 suggest Preeti, I would have said leave him, move on. 380 00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:58,280 He did. He did a wrong thing to you. 381 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:02,000 But depicting that and putting it out in front of the audience 382 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:07,640 is just letting people know that this is also a part of society. 383 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:12,040 This also happens in the film this, this is, you know, this 384 00:23:12,120 --> 00:23:13,520 actually this is a part of society. 385 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,400 I mean you can't expect director to make changes just to 386 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:19,240 influence or according to that. Now if you asked about Animal, 387 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:24,360 at the end, she leaves him, Rashmika leaves him and he's 388 00:23:24,360 --> 00:23:28,720 shown in that space where he is left with very less people or 389 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:32,560 nobody too close to him. So then the consequences are 390 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,600 also shown in that film. Now again, I'm not justifying 391 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:38,160 it, but whatever was shown in that film, the misogyny, the 392 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:41,240 treatment to women, the violence, all those things, I 393 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,960 personally found it very, very over traumatic and too much is a 394 00:23:44,960 --> 00:24:02,320 little bit, yeah, we are just showing it to the world. 395 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:08,760 That is how it happens consequence Kiwi would films 396 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:12,920 would influence to saw film IR which is saying quit smoking 397 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:18,160 awareness about rape awareness about you know women health 398 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:30,680 influence create good movies put out good world or I understand 399 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:34,560 key bad things are easily adaptable than good things log 400 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:39,040 Jali secret to be cool and all those things but as I told 401 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:48,520 cinema is not the only medium films Yeah animal Jessica 402 00:24:48,520 --> 00:25:00,960 Bollywood influence over there right situation Cindy as we are 403 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:05,080 getting older and our parents are getting older so we are not 404 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:09,920 getting that culture with us no we are not hitting our wife or 405 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,400 girlfriends we are not doing that because we are adapting we 406 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,680 know what is right and what is wrong so that is also because of 407 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:21,360 all the films and social. Media bringing to be Of course 408 00:25:21,360 --> 00:25:23,680 it does. It can like create a. 409 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,720 Lot of bringing the self-awareness be bots are easy 410 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:29,840 yeah but it's your choice what you do and definitely people 411 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:31,520 should be disciplined. People should be taught in 412 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:35,160 school and many you know institutions and everything 413 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,480 people they should always be taught that what is right and 414 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:40,400 what is wrong. I mean not it is not just about 415 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:42,720 the gender. You can't treat anyone like 416 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:44,880 that. Koi tumari Jagini. 417 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,040 Yeah, exactly. You can't read anyone like that. 418 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:50,680 That's not at all acceptable. I mean, even to your kids, 419 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:59,640 parents, or sometimes needed. But again, violence is never an 420 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:13,240 answer for anything, regardless of any gender. 421 00:26:13,360 --> 00:26:19,080 He's facing the consequences. He slapped the girl. 422 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,880 Exactly. She left him and she came back. 423 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:30,560 It happens. I have seen it with my eyes and 424 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:35,200 people are still together. It is not healthy or what. 425 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:39,040 It's not my debate exactly. Whatever happens, it's it's fine 426 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,560 for them if it works for them. They both are OK. 427 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:45,280 It is fine for them, but again, if you ask me, I wouldn't want 428 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:48,000 to be part of such thing or I wouldn't do something like that. 429 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,000 So it depends on person to person. 430 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:52,560 But again, violence in any way is not acceptable. 431 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:58,480 In one of Aamir Khan's interview, he actually said that 432 00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:04,720 violence and sex are like 2 most very the most vulnerable 433 00:27:05,120 --> 00:27:07,600 emotions to evoke in the audience. 434 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:13,000 So directors are very prone to using such kind of storyline or 435 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:15,480 stuff. This is what he said. 436 00:27:16,360 --> 00:27:19,680 What do you think about? That it's true. 437 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:25,760 It's definitely true. I mean there's nothing to say in 438 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:26,760 it. It's it's true. 439 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:30,160 It happens in the industry. I won't name any films, but 440 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:34,640 there have been films dismissive violence and then the other part 441 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:38,600 is just vulgarity or sex. Where it is not needed in the 442 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:40,720 script is Ke Binabi film Chalati. 443 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,320 But why did they put it? Just because they want to pull 444 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:47,960 an audience, pull in money and which is it is quite obvious why 445 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:51,840 it is so like I don't have to explain it India my audience 446 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:53,440 till the violence got the ticket. 447 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:58,240 It has some other effect on people, but sex and the feeling 448 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:04,880 of that, you know, getting to see it on the big screen, it is 449 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:08,240 a thing that in incites audience. 450 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:12,160 And yeah, that's why such films are made. 451 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,880 I mean there are OTT channels for that right now, an entire 452 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:19,720 app dedicated to that. So that I don't, I mean I don't 453 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:23,920 consider that as filmmaking. Wherever it is needed now there 454 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,400 is this. There are many shows this Game 455 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,080 of Thrones, there are other shows where it was needed. 456 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,320 It had its beauty, the vulgarity. 457 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,440 It was not vulgarity. It had its beauty. 458 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:37,960 So for that beauty, it had action and violence, both of it. 459 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:42,600 But it was shown in such a way that it was necessary to show 460 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:47,200 that, you know, the series would have dropped. 461 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:53,040 You know, there would have been differences in it's what what 462 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:55,680 should I say? Like people wouldn't have felt 463 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,200 all the emotions properly, right? 464 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,800 Right. So Jahaja accept and we agree. 465 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:03,840 But OK, it's fine. It's fine. 466 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:07,520 Yeah, it's fine. But as as Aamir Khan said, it is 467 00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:10,480 absolutely true. Like when the films are not 468 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:16,160 going to run, they insert these things, violence and vulgarity 469 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,800 and then people make money through that and good scripts 470 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,400 are also destroyed because of that because now the audience is 471 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:25,800 becoming, you know, more mature and accepting good scripts due 472 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:29,560 to OTT. But back then in 20/15/2012, at 473 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,840 that time audience did not accept good scripts. 474 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:34,840 There are many, many good scripts which did not work. 475 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:39,680 But commercial scripts, action films of actors who are just 476 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:43,440 same person in different clothes, who do not, you know, 477 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:49,720 yeah exactly who do not choose versatility as the virtue and 478 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:53,000 those things. So such films have worked 479 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:55,640 because of the mentality of the audience at that time. 480 00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:58,240 So as we are exposed to the western cinema, we are accepting 481 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:01,240 good, good and good content, good story, good script, good 482 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:03,080 performances. We are demanding that. 483 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:08,160 Is there any podcast which is your favorite or you like 484 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:11,120 watching? And I watch Bo biceps a lot. 485 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:13,080 Same. Yeah, right, It's. 486 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,360 Awesome. His team is great. 487 00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:21,400 I mean muske kafi dekha. There are many, So I'm into a 488 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,320 lot of sci-fi stuff and a lot of horror. 489 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,680 Stuff. Yeah, kind of horror stuff. 490 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:29,640 Yeah. Sarabjeet was there today. 491 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:34,000 Yeah, So I watched his videos as well. 492 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:36,120 Anika Mams videos as well. She was also there. 493 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:42,040 Abhijeet, Choudas podcasts. I watch such podcasts and 494 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:46,680 podcasts based on Indian history, Indian mythology or 495 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,800 like many people don't like that word mythology, but I don't 496 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:55,320 remember what else it is called. But yeah, Indian history and 497 00:30:55,320 --> 00:31:03,600 everything that is related to spiritualism or something. 498 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:07,880 Something like extraterrestrial stuff, aliens, aliens and all 499 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,880 our universe. So all that stuff I like. 500 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:17,160 But yeah, I prefer, I prefer. I'm more lean towards history or 501 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:21,560 mythology stuff. Coming to horror, but you met 502 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:24,640 Sarbajit today, right? And is this something that you 503 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,800 have ever experienced, Like slightly paranormal? 504 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:31,760 If it's something abnormal, OK, OK, this is not supposed to 505 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:33,840 happen. It has happened, yeah. 506 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:37,360 Things have happened with me. But I always find, as Sarabjit 507 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:40,000 says, I question it, You should question it. 508 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:41,640 I question it and I and. Then. 509 00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:47,720 Exactly, and I find a way out of it and I justified by a logical 510 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,960 thing. So there have been instances. 511 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:52,960 Like so many adventures, Ratko, Jaga and. 512 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:55,360 Coffee are so. Have you ever experienced 513 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,720 something like the Kulagaoki? OK. 514 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:01,960 I've never experienced these things, Ratko firstly. 515 00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:05,920 Didn't. I I mean coffee experience 516 00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:07,040 Nikia. But I have a couple of 517 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:08,760 experiences. Afternoon memo. 518 00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:12,880 But I again don't think that my friends around me, they were 519 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:15,880 saying that it is all paranormal, like there's there's 520 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:18,240 nothing explained there. There are some things which I 521 00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:21,600 also couldn't explain, so I just left it. 522 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:25,920 I did not think much about it. People say K ratko, everyone is 523 00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:32,000 asleep and there is come bikes and vehicles Kashore so the the 524 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:35,120 Atmas are more active at that time. 525 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:37,640 I have no clue. And you should have asked this 526 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:40,640 to Sarabjit because I I don't believe in that. 527 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:43,440 I have no clue. It's a it's a good source of 528 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:46,840 entertainment. No disrespect to the paranormal 529 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:51,720 activists and everyone, but for me, I don't believe. 530 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:53,040 Do you? Paranormal stuff you don't 531 00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:53,600 believe? No. 532 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:58,040 OK, what has happened like? So you want me to tell the 533 00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,400 situation? Yeah, nothing Here with me and 534 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,520 my friend. We were just so we all of us 535 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:05,200 gathered at a place, at a friend's place. 536 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:09,960 We were chilling and as we were leaving the room, all of us, me 537 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:11,880 and my friend, so it was two of us. 538 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:16,520 I turned back to say something to her and when I turned back I 539 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:23,600 saw just a handkerchief flying like this and falling on another 540 00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:27,480 place, going to another place but it was kept on an extension 541 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:31,640 box so I thought electric shock circuit however something like 542 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:33,520 that. But she did not hear the voice 543 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:37,080 and she felt something move. And I also saw something move, 544 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:42,880 but I did not stretch it out. I have no explanation to it 545 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,440 right now, but I don't know. I mean what? 546 00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:47,480 Was that place like it was someone's house? 547 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:49,600 Yeah, it was a friend's house. It was a friend's room. 548 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:52,200 It was a proper people lived. People used to live there. 549 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:52,840 I. Don't know. 550 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:56,760 There are places where people live, but other things also live 551 00:33:56,760 --> 00:34:01,880 there. So like, did the person who was 552 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:03,480 living there, he or she was with you? 553 00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:04,760 Yeah. Yeah, he was. 554 00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:06,880 And he was also adding up to it. He was saying that. 555 00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:16,040 I. Was like, no, I was not buying 556 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,520 into that. Do you believe in black magic? 557 00:34:18,679 --> 00:34:22,400 I'm Bengali and many friends of mine accused me. 558 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:28,040 Stereotype, OK. No, but W Bengal does have a lot 559 00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:29,800 of this stuff. It's just true. 560 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:36,600 And northeastern areas also. So I have no problem saying if 561 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:40,199 you say something like that, but do you believe in those stuff? 562 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:45,320 I don't. I'm an agnostic in a way, not 563 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:50,840 completely atheist, but I actually don't believe so. 564 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:54,320 I believe people like if that person is close to me, he 565 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:57,520 believes in something for him. I'll believe in that for his 566 00:34:57,520 --> 00:34:58,760 sake. I'll believe in that. 567 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:07,280 I'll I love the, you know, art that comes around both the 568 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:12,760 things, the black magic also and the bhagwan Ki part puja and 569 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:16,680 everything art. I mean the the way the murtis 570 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:18,880 are made and the history behind it. 571 00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:23,400 You know, the folklores, the culture or where the temples 572 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:25,200 are, the traditions and all those. 573 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:27,560 I love that. I love to watch that, but if you 574 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:31,880 ask me, I don't believe believe in anything strongly. 575 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:36,600 What are the kind of books that you like read? 576 00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:39,040 Is it also around mythology or something like? 577 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:42,840 That I have, man, I have completed the Amish trilogy. 578 00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:47,520 It is beautiful. So the models of Melua, again, 579 00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:50,600 not a promotion, but yeah, I suggest those are very beautiful 580 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:52,720 books and the storytelling is lovely. 581 00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:54,480 So I. The Ramachandra series. 582 00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:56,040 No, I haven't. I have to, yeah. 583 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,320 I want to read that series, but I have read the Shiva trilogy. 584 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,000 It's beautiful, it's lovely. I love that. 585 00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:04,720 Then I'm more into, so I'm a light reader. 586 00:36:04,720 --> 00:36:09,560 I'm not an avid reader, so I just, I just want to read 587 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:12,920 something, which is feel good. I'm starting right now. 588 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:16,640 I might get into the deep stuff later on, but right now I'm just 589 00:36:16,720 --> 00:36:20,960 focused on, you know, having an escape from this world. 590 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:25,160 Some kind of books, like a ROM, com, maybe fantasy, something 591 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:29,160 which is very well written, very well told fiction mostly. 592 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:31,560 So yeah, I'm into such kind of books right now. 593 00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:35,920 Since you don't believe in the paranormal stuff, do you believe 594 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:40,200 in spirituality and God? No, not really. 595 00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:43,160 I mean, I told you I'm an agnostic, so agnosticism is 596 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:47,280 basically you're not sure you're confused. 597 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:51,880 Not exactly confused, but you kind of feel that there is 598 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,840 something superior. Are you open to like any 599 00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:58,480 theories or something like that which can make you believe Q? 600 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,440 OK, this is yeah, this is all like. 601 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:07,040 Yeah, I mean, if it can be proven to me, then why not? 602 00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:10,520 Why shouldn't I believe it? But again, my mind will start 603 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:13,240 questioning it and put 10 logical things around it. 604 00:37:13,240 --> 00:37:17,040 And I know that it won't be proven, but if some miracle 605 00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:21,280 happens in something or maybe, I don't know, I might start. 606 00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:28,440 So if you ask me if in future that will I be, you know, I do 607 00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:31,400 visit temples, I'm going to go for one tomorrow and I'm very 608 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:33,840 excited. I'm excited to know Jagannath 609 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,320 Puri, I'm going to Konak Sun Temple. 610 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:39,800 So I'm excited about the place to know about its history, to 611 00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,120 see the artifacts and all those things. 612 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:44,320 I'm. I'm excited. 613 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:46,200 I'm very much interested. I told you right Indian 614 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,120 mythology. I'm interested in Mahabharata, 615 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:51,120 Rama and I read about it. I know some things here and 616 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:52,600 there. I'm very much interested. 617 00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:57,160 But I look at it as a folklore or something which was passed on 618 00:37:57,160 --> 00:37:59,040 by basically. Mythology. 619 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:00,640 Mythology. Exactly. 620 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:02,520 Yeah. So I don't believe, believe in 621 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,640 it. It might have happened, you 622 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:08,960 know, But I that it doesn't line up properly. 623 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:12,040 There's no scientific explanation for me to believe in 624 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:16,080 spiritualism or, you know, believing in God or demon or 625 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:19,800 something like that. You're thinking Nazar lagti, a 626 00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:23,520 logo Ki like when you were doing something really gold. 627 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:26,200 Or you share stuff on Instagram, good stuff. 628 00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,320 And then suddenly it all. From hell. 629 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:30,560 I did not believe in that, honestly. 630 00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:39,800 But we also, I do not believe it, believe in it much coffee 631 00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:45,960 problems. So I mean, I'm still not 632 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:48,000 believing in it. It's just a mere coincidence. 633 00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:53,800 But I'm again. Have you taken some step key? 634 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:57,320 OK, I'll not tell this to a lot of people if something good is 635 00:38:57,320 --> 00:38:58,640 happening. Have you done that? 636 00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:06,160 Previously also I used to be the same. 637 00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:09,360 I used to tell people about what's up and what what am I 638 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:11,480 doing. Not everyone close my clothes 639 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:13,480 once and everything and it happened smoothly. 640 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:16,600 It just might be the coincidence or just might be the current 641 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:18,160 situation. That's why things are not 642 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:19,880 working out. But I'm not going to link it 643 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:22,440 directly to Nazar or anything else. 644 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,440 Evila or something like that, no. 645 00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,560 A class question which I want to ask you. 646 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:35,760 What are your future goals like? Honestly, with. 647 00:39:36,720 --> 00:39:39,760 Yes, Oscar. Yeah, professional goals to 648 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:44,600 definitely I want to, you know, spread my wings as far as 649 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:46,920 possible. I want to experience. 650 00:39:47,240 --> 00:39:50,440 I want to work in many, many different regions of India. 651 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:54,600 I want to go down South. Would you like to sign a movie 652 00:39:54,600 --> 00:40:00,120 like Animal and Kabir Singh? OK, Kabir Singh, I might. 653 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:02,320 OK, Animal. I'll have to think, depending on 654 00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:04,040 how big the paycheck. Is given. 655 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:11,320 Yeah, see, it's a tricky question. 656 00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:17,480 Now again, if it has to be, you know, if I have to choose it 657 00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:20,520 completely on the artistic base, then I would not do animal 658 00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:27,760 exactly, which can just set my life. 659 00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:32,160 That is my interview, no. Movies commercial. 660 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:36,800 Aspect. But again, it depends how much 661 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,120 people look up. To me that's another thing, just 662 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:42,440 fresher. Then if I do such a film then 663 00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:45,960 it's a different take. But if I'm someone like, Not 664 00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:49,200 exactly, but people get influenced a lot by me. 665 00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:52,440 So then there's other responsibility on me that it 666 00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:56,040 will, you know decide or it will help me decide what to do and 667 00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:58,720 what not to. But again money speaks again. 668 00:40:59,720 --> 00:41:14,200 I got SC film hai, SC film bahar Aria coffee level problem, 669 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:17,680 right? But Aria bhar to jitney bhar 670 00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:19,960 itni censor board has declared key. 671 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,360 This is watchable audience they accept here. 672 00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:24,240 So then why shouldn't actors do it? 673 00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:27,080 Right. So yeah, your goals. 674 00:41:27,240 --> 00:41:30,520 What exactly have you like something set on your mind? 675 00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:33,240 Ke Hamuji Yehi Kart Nahi. Set me go to Hoga. 676 00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:37,480 I'm pretty sure professionally I'm going to do various kinds of 677 00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:39,360 characters. I'm going to work in Malayalam 678 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:40,960 industry, Tamil industry, Telugu. 679 00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:45,360 I love the South Indian industry and I watch a lot of films. 680 00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:49,200 I want to work again in Bengali, Bengali films. 681 00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:53,040 I want to win in Punjabi films. I want to work in Odia, Pan, 682 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:54,280 India. I just want to try out good 683 00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:57,880 stuff and I want to work internationally again. 684 00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:00,680 I just want to work and I just want to enjoy my craft. 685 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:03,760 Then whatever recognition awards comes with it, it comes with it 686 00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:05,960 and not just. You're not after like a lot of 687 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:07,280 awards or? Something not really. 688 00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:09,880 Want to do the work? Yeah, I just want to learn. 689 00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:15,840 I just want to work and I guess people will love it. 690 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:20,080 Even if they don't, I will learn from it and I just want to put 691 00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:22,400 out my work professionally. I want that. 692 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:26,560 Personally, if you ask me, what is my goal in life, the main 693 00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:33,520 goal of life, all of this I'm doing is to be happy in my life 694 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:37,720 and this is a major part, but it is not the main thing. 695 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:41,520 Even if Kalko Bot was Salma Teen Chafil Mina Karo, I'm not a 696 00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:42,600 superstar. I'll be fine. 697 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:46,840 I'm doing couple of shows, good characters, decent characters 698 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,440 and I'm taking time out for my family. 699 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:52,080 I'll be fine. But what I want to have is I 700 00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:55,520 want to have my family with me. I want to have my wife, my kids. 701 00:42:55,840 --> 00:43:00,040 That's my goal. I want to explore the world and 702 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:04,240 explore all sorts of ups and downs with my people around, my 703 00:43:04,240 --> 00:43:08,640 friends around, and I want to live in my that small world 704 00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:12,320 alongside doing these things. So it has to be a balance of 705 00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:16,160 both. But it's not like no I don't. 706 00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:19,160 Want to conquer the world. I don't want to conquer the 707 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:20,200 world. I want to make a world for 708 00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:22,960 myself. So there's a difference in that. 709 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:25,880 I mean, I'll be happy if that happens. 710 00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:30,200 If I reach to a certain level, I am. 711 00:43:30,240 --> 00:43:32,640 I can say that I am on top of the world right now. 712 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,080 But even if it does not happen, I'm I'm OK with. 713 00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:38,200 It your main goal is yeah, I live a peaceful and. 714 00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:42,840 Peaceful, happy life with my people and a good life of 715 00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:48,120 course. And for you, you just can't be 716 00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:50,520 around your family and people always 24/7. 717 00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:55,960 So it has to be that balance. So acting and work also gives me 718 00:43:55,960 --> 00:44:00,520 immense pleasure and immense happiness and so does by 719 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:06,880 spending time with my people to in is in Chisoka validation. 720 00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:11,360 Yeah, in Chisoko.
