do is really is to keep ones head down and keep working I think all the answers and all the solutions are hidden in your workâ said Sai who is one of the highestpaid actresses in Marathi cinemaThe

O Jaane Jaana that the world has hummed for decades was actually never meant to be the final versionHe stated âJab humne song compose kiya tha yeh jo song hain kabhie final mix tak pahucha hi nahi Humne song record kar liya tha aur tape bhi the humare pass par release ke kuch din pehle voh tape toot gayi aur aaj tak jo aap sab uss gaane ko sunte hain voh final mix song hi nahi hainâHe mentioned they had to use the rough recording of the song in the movieLeft with no other choice they decided to use that raw unpolished track which turned out to be so high in quality that it matched the standards of a final mix and eventually became a nationwide sensationWhile the music was a hit Lalit was quick to credit the superstardom of Salman Khan for making the song an eternal visual treatHe noted that the rough track found its soul through Salmanâs unmatched screen presence as Lalit said âGaana itni hit hogi humne socha nahi tha hume pata tha song achi hain par yeh song hit hogayi only because of Salman Khan kyunki unka jo screen presence tha voh guitar ke sath aur shirtless voh work kar gayaââTalking about the song it featured in the movie Pyaar Kiya Toh Darna Kya which starred

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

character artists finally getting recognition after the significant rise in OTT and social media Speaking exclusively to IANS the Des Mein Nikla Hoga Chand actor said that there are several great actors who do not fit the conventional profile of a lead and they are finally getting their due thanks to OTT and social mediaVarun was asked You are a wellknown name in television and have also 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
