Somewhere my father has played an important role in whatever I am today. If I was not the son of him (Anil), then I don’t know in how much time I would have got the exposure towards films. If you were not the son of Director Anil Sharma, even then, you think you would be an actor only? After all, being an Indian there will be some awkwardness while doing romantic scenes in front of your parents because of our values and culture but somewhere we are an actor so will have to do it if the story demands. I was looking at the expression of my mother, even she was shocked. Our photographer went to my mother and says ‘what a fantastic photography I have done’ and started showing those photographs of my kissing scenes. When that take got finalised after that my mother came on set. Finally we did 7-8 retakes for perfection. We did one more take then I suddenly saw that writer and others were laughing at me. That time I felt Ohh I am doing this scene in front of my father and this scene is not perfect so I will have to give a retake. When I turned back, I saw my father and choreographer were laughing at me. When I saw on monitor, I saw that she just touched her nose and left. When I reached on set, the choreographer told me that the actress will come and kiss you on cheek. That time you are living in your character. You have to act considering the audience because the audience does not know whether your father was there on set or not. Were you comfortable doing romantic scenes in front of your father? but somewhere youth strongly believes and love our country as well from inside. He wanted to convey the message that our today’s youth might believe in fashion, clothing etc. As we know there are always flavours of patriotism in his films. He wanted to say something about the country. I asked my father, why this script only? He said ‘this is about youth’. Debut matters a lot for any actor and for a newcomer like me, perhaps there cannot be a bigger launchpad than this. Somewhere even I had a concern that perhaps I may not get a chance with such kind of a director for my debut. But when my father told me that he wants to take me in this film not because I am his son but this film has such a challenging character and this will be a challenge for any actor. If I would have started my career with some other director, then perhaps industry may have felt right. So, decision was taken that I would be an actor. Before I went to America, my father had taken my several auditions publicly.
It was not pre-planned, but I thought of doing some good character-roles. Was the debut with ‘Genius’ your own dream or pre-planned by your father? This was one of the biggest opportunity for me to work with him and I have given my best. He will never spoil his name to make me a hero. Such kind of director can’t do anything wrong because of their name and brand image. I have learned a lot from my father while working with him. I am thankful to God that I got this opportunity. Keeping aside that he is my father, its actually the biggest opportunity for me to work with Anil Sharma. How much does it matter for you to debut with Anil Sharma like a renowned director? In an exclusive interview with Yogesh Mishra, he spoke about his debut film ‘Genius’, working experience with his father Anil Sharma, future plans and more. He wants to explore himself in various characters and wants to engage himself fully in works.
He has a lot of expectations from his debut film.
