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

you leave everything and sit back hoping that the mind shall stop its adventure but no it does not and the storm of the internet blows strong and drives your attention to so many aspects that it

has been overshadowed by this medium called the net and the revelations coerce one to follow the latest and drive past the earlier usualââFor those that have lived past the early times and live now to be overwhelmed by strikingly different methodology it is a fascinating tale of timeâ Times were ever an important element to rely upon and they do bring in honourable nostalgia understood by them that

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

to happen repeatedly I think it is time people seriously reflect on it Changes are necessaryVarun was further questioned Since you started working in the television industry what changes have you observed Earlier there was a certain craze for actors but now it seems to be fading What is your perspective on this shiftVarun responded to this by saying that he has never personally felt that kind of craze Even if it existed I never experienced it that way However it is true that the workload has increased significantlyHe added that there is a lack of discipline at times I believe we can produce better work in a shorter duration without putting pressure on peopleâs health while still maintaining quality It is not difficult to achieve but for some reason we are not making that effort Many things have changed and satisfaction has almost disappeared As far as popularity is concerned I am not sure The workload today is immense but there will always be superstars concluded Varun IANS

Shukla believes that honesty forms the backbone of any meaningful relationship especially when it comes to love Speaking about the idea of being a âKhuli Kitabâ or âan open bookâ in a relationship Saurabh shared that withholding the truth often causes more serious damage than the truth itselfâYou should not hide things at least I believe that Hiding has a problem because once it is broken or exposed it creates a feeling of betrayal And I have seen this very sensitively Iâm telling you this very clearly and Iâve understood it many timesâ Saurabh whose latest film is âJab Khuli Kitaabâ told IANSAccording to him the pain in such situations is not always about what happened but about being kept uninformedâItâs not about the act itâs about the fact that you were kept in the dark That becomes a bigger betrayalâ he explainedâIt starts questioning everything It makes you feel that your partner didnât trust you enough to understand and that hurts moreâHe stressed that openness strengthens the foundation of a relationship allowing partners to truly know each otherâSo I think that ideally you should have a relationship where you can be openâ said SaurabhReflecting on love and truth he recalled a line by poet Rumi âLight always enters through the crack in the wallââI came across a line by Rumiâ her line was âLight always enters through the crack in the wallâ and it was so wonderfulâTalking about the story of his film he said âSo what happens here This couple was leading a perfect life It was a strong love a wall without any cracks One truth came it broke the wall it cracked everything But as a byproduct what entered was the light of truth and the room got illuminated by this lightâHe added that once everything is out in the open there is nothing left to hide and partners begin to understand each other completely the good and the flawedâSo interestingly when the truth comes out there is nothing left to hide Then you know the odds and evens of your partner And if knowing everything you still stay together how truthful that relationship becomes Because you have understood this is how it is or how it was or how it happenedââSo thereâs nothing left to hide And thatâs exactly what they discover Then their romance and their love find a new definitionâ IANS

there Theres nobody like Amitabh Bachchan anymore And in every field its like thatâ he saidMilind also pointed out that the same pattern can be seen in music and popular cultureâYou look in music where is Michael Jackson Anybody to take over Elvis Presley Bruce Springsteen Madonna Theres nobody who has achieved that kind of stardom that iconic presenceâ he addedAccording to Milind the shift has largely happened because a major chunk of the audiences today consume content in a much more segmented wayâItâs not there because the audience doesnt want it Its so fragmented today that everybody likes their own genre of whatever it isI listen to only this kind of music I watch only these kind of movies I see only that kind of series I like only this fashion because everything has become
