Ashutosh Rana supports young actors, highlights importance of on-the-job-learning
Actor Ashutosh Rana has supported the young crop of talents in the film industry saying that it’s not necessary for artists to learn and then put it into action
- MUMBAI — Actor Ashutosh Rana, who has been receiving a lot of positive
response to his theatre show ‘Humaare Ram’, has supported the young crop of
talents in the film industry saying that it’s not necessary for artists to
learn and then put it into action.
-
- The actor, who essays the role of Lankesh in ‘Humaare
Ram’, produced by Felicity Theatre, spoke with IANS about the craft of
voice-modulation.
-
- Ashutosh Rana is an NSD graduate, and considers theatre
to be ingrained in his DNA, and incorporates his learnings from theatre into
his work in cinema. His amazing control on the voice and the language makes him
one of the finest actors in Indian cinema.
-
- He told IANS, “I am from the theater. So, I started
working after learning, and there are some people who learn while working.
Learning is important. If the quality of learning is exceptional, then you can
trust that your performance will have an impact on the audience because the
character is of the actor until the audience sees it. But when the audience
sees it, then the character is neither of the writer, actor, or director. The
character is of the audience”.
-
- He believes that every actor tries his best, and it’s the
perception of the audience that changes.
-
- He further mentioned, “Some people's efforts affect you.
Some people's efforts don't affect you. People often say that young actors are
not paying attention. They are paying attention to the audience. You might not
have been impacted as audience by their efforts but it doesn’t mean that they
didn’t put in any effort. Maybe the impact of the effort was miniscule but it
doesn’t rule out the effort put in by them”.
-
- “So, we feel that they are not working honestly when
they’re fully honest with their work. Some people's efforts affect you, some
people's efforts don't affect you”, he added.
