Hi friends and fore fathers !! Here I got an opportunity to introduce myself- but I am struggling with my which part of self should come first-My understanding of self is WIP. So beginning with professional journey. In 1995 I was 12 , I had a summer camp related to drama and acting that was the time when i realised that acting is the only tool through which i want to live my life... Just like story needs contradiction my story moved in similar way.
My parents did not want me to chose acting as a profession and as i was ok in science and maths.. I completed my graduation in technology (B.Tech)in 2007 . Now during my graduation i have participated in many solo and drama competitions in which i won several awards and recognition which motivated me to Learn acting professionally. Which requires dollars :) in India it is Rupees.. So using my graduation degree i worked for a year as an Engineer and saved the money.
Then i got selected in Mr. Anupam Kher's (Internationally known actor) acting school. Where i learned a lot but it did not quench my thirst of acting but aroused it. Then i also came to know that there are books and researches are also available worldwide. I found my self left out in a race of learning where all are ahead of me. Finally I did my diploma in film acting :)
What was that ????....i want to act now Hey !! give me job ... What portfolio , not matching character, screen test was good but .....etc??...it is another world of how to get the acting job .Now real practical classes for acting started so i struggled fr the job- a job ... to any job. !! during which i did theaters, few TV serials , One as a lead actor for MTV's "On The Job 2" finally i got Big screen job Movie AAkrosh-2010. Then i have worked in an international documentry-drama based on a book "An Autobiography Of A Yogi"
Again my life took a "U Turn" i have to support my family financially so i again did a job for 4 years as an Engineer and reached to Assistant manager.
But i did not quit learning in during the period i dealt understanding methods of the geniouses like Miesner, Chekhov, Stella , Lee Strasberg, Stanislavasky is obviously and it is a life time improvement process.
Finally along with my Job i started training Acting in few Drama classes and become a personal tutor too.... Further now i have my Own production house which has started few projects also...So this is me guys...
!! Good luck to me and you all too !!
