day and sometimes more than 56 times alsoâ he addedTalking about the challenges of playing the character again he said âAs I have mentioned itâs a blessing that God has chosen me to play the role Itâs not easy and I donât take it for granted Everytime I perform I have jitters and I am very nervous My whole team knows that I am nervous and till the time I am playing this character nervousness will

the god which I cannot bear Stage and television are entirely different from each other They both have their own challenges and advantages alsoâHe added âOn stage the biggest advantage is that you just have to do it once and then itâs over but on TV you have to keep on doing it for hours as shifts are for 12 hours and putting on the costume and wig for 12 hours is challengingââSometimes the scenes are shot for over one day but in theatre itâs just one take in front of more than 2000 people which is the biggest challenge Obviously performing on stage is more satisfying and I love that moreâTarun also shares his take on the public image of an actor which is always scrutinisedâI agree that our image is under scanner and one must behave and one should be very mindful of what we are saying which should not set a wrong example This is not only for me but for all the actors who have some kind of influence on peopleâ the actor concluded IANS

worked in films With the rise of social media and OTT platforms even character artists are gaining popularity Do you think this trend will continueTo this the Saiyaara actor said I think OTT platforms have played a significant role in this change There are many talented actors who may not fit into conventional lead roles and earlier they did not receive the recognition they deserved OTT has given them strong meaningful roles because these shows are not entirely stardrivenTalking about the impact of social media Varun explained that even a small character becomes a household name with the help of reels and memesSocial media also contributes as when a small character becomes popular memes and reels amplify that recognition But I believe such content only becomes popular when an actor is given a good opportunity in the first place and OTT has provided exactly that he went on to addGiving an example of Aditya Dhar and Ranveer Singhs Dhurandhar Varun said that a movie driven by concept does not depend on starsThe same shift is visible in films as well For instance a conceptdriven film like Dhurandhar is not dependent on stars That is the beauty of it Actors like Rakesh Bedi are finally receiving the recognition they deserve something they have waited for over the years Even smaller characters in such films have become widely popular he shared IANS

the dayThe actress said âToday lets talk about how you start your day Ive always believed that if you get your morning right it just sets the tone for everything that follows I have tried many many different morning routines and have finally arrived at a simple formula that works for me and I call this my power morningââIf youve been doing everything right and the belly fat does not go and the skin is acting up maybe you wake up puffy maybe its time to look at your morning routineâHighlighting the role of stress Samantha explained that cortisol levels are naturally high upon waking and immediately reaching for phones emails or news can amplify that stressâSo when you wake up your stress hormone is naturally high this is normal but what you do next is really important and you end up reaching for your phone news work emails you double that stressâAccording to her this early spike can lead to poor focus and an increased craving for instant gratification throughout the daySharing her routine the actress suggested avoiding phone usage for the first hour after waking followed by a few minutes of deep intentional breathing to calm the nervous systemâI want to share with you some simple clear actions that have helped me tremendously Try it for 21 days and see if it calms your nervous system and helps you reduce inflammation Rule number one no phone for the first hour Two five minutes of deep intentional breathing in silenceââSlow breathing activates your vagus nerve telling your brain youre safe and a safe brain burns fat and repairs better than a stressed oneâShe also recommended getting early sunlight exposure consuming a simple morning elixir and having a balanced breakfast to maintain stable blood sugar levelsGet sunlight on your face within 10 minutes of waking Have this easy but super effective morning elixir Have a balanced breakfast that keeps your blood sugar stable so you dont reach out for those sugary snacks for the rest of the day Move your body before 11 am Have your coffee or tea after breakfastâSamantha also advised setting a clear intention for the day by deciding on a task to accomplish noting that writing it down can help the mind stay focused and avoid distractionsâAnd one last thing decide what you will conquer that day Even if its something small think about it with intention Write it down because if your brain is working hard
