00:00She wants to be first of all welcome to IONES.
00:02Thank you so much.
00:03And first of all, you should know that
00:05you have only two days for Unbamma
00:09in Unbamma. How did you prepare for your role?
00:12Sir, prepare.
00:14Look, I'm going to say that I didn't prepare.
00:16I didn't prepare.
00:18Whatever happened, they came to the set
00:20and came to the director's
00:22understanding what they wanted,
00:24what their expectations,
00:26what their character is.
00:28I think I would say that
00:30it was about 7-8-10 episodes
00:32to figure out what they are,
00:34what they are,
00:36what they are thinking,
00:38what they are doing,
00:40what their body language is.
00:42After understanding that,
00:44I think I am able to work out myself.
00:46So yes, I will say that
00:48the preparation was nothing.
00:50The preparation was all my directors
00:52and my creatives.
00:54The character is very interesting.
00:56Do you realize that
00:58you are the same?
01:00I am the same.
01:02Of course, I am the same.
01:04I am the same.
01:05I am the same.
01:06I am the same.
01:07I am the same.
01:08I think I am the same.
01:09I am the same.
01:10But I can understand
01:11I am the same.
01:13I am the same.
01:15The situation has been
01:31I am the same.
01:33So I think that the love of that thing was much hurt.
01:35I mean, I could tell you, Anupama Ji, I can handle things.
01:40So I think that's the thing.
01:42But of course, I am the same with the love of that thing.
01:46But there are some things that you have to do with the character and some things that you have a personality.
01:53What was the experience of Man Sundar Malki and Article 370, after doing anupama experience?
02:02Sir, it was very good.
02:04At every stage, there were different projects.
02:07It was a different experience.
02:09First of all, I was Malki.
02:11So it was my first experience to see a set up, two camera set up, direction team, production team.
02:19What are the dynamics of the set?
02:21I didn't know that I was aware of.
02:24Then, my second experience was a boot camp.
02:32It was a way that I had to do it.
02:35It was a way that I had to do it.
02:37That's what I did.
02:38And then, Article 370 was a different experience.
02:43It was a different set up.
02:45where we have the daily pictures, the footage we have released daily in the show
02:51I think 2-4 minutes a day
02:54So what is the way we work?
02:56And Anupama, which is a legacy, a brand
02:59There are so many artists here, Rupali, Irwin Sir, Leela Ji
03:04What is the experience, dedication and perseverance?
03:10What is the patience?
03:12What is the purpose of our career graph?
03:16And what is the purpose of our scene work?
03:19You also want to work in a specific genre, so do you want to work in a specific genre?
03:25Sir, I want to work in a specific format
03:31Which is the way I enjoy working with
03:35There are so many people who sit with me
03:38And if I say a particular format, I always say
03:42I think I would be very good in an intense love story
03:46So that is my favourite genre
03:48In which there is pain, heartbreak, love
03:50There is a bit of action
03:52But it is not that one's face and ten people are falling
03:56Realism action
03:58I think that is my favourite genre
04:00Maybe a psychological thriller
04:02So these are all my favourites
04:04Some people say that Anupama's track is going to be repeated
04:06So in a new character
04:08So in a new character
04:10Do you feel fresh script
04:12And a typical TV figure
04:14Sir, I was 8 months ago
04:16So what happened to me
04:18So what happened to me
04:20I didn't have much idea
04:21What was the track
04:22What was the graph
04:23What was the track
04:24What was the graph
04:25I just knew that
04:26Which actors were working on
04:27So I didn't have much idea
04:28And when I have a script
04:30So I take it as a fresh way
04:33And I work the same
04:36What I think
04:37What should I do
04:38In terms of the character
04:39And what I have learned
04:41In terms of the TV
04:43If I am thinking
04:45If I am thinking
04:47That I am doing this
04:48That I am doing this
04:49That I think
04:51I think
04:52In terms of the TV
04:53It means
04:54It means
04:55A very repetitive story
04:57Right?
04:58Melodramatic story
04:59Melodramatic story
05:01So
05:02I don't think
05:03Melodramatic
05:05I don't approach it
05:07I don't approach it
05:08My work
05:09I don't want any format
05:10Of course
05:11I don't want to approach it
05:12I don't want to approach it
05:13Which way
05:14I think
05:15What should I do
05:16Of course
05:17There are some things
05:18That we can see
05:19That we can see
05:20More emotions
05:21And more intensity
05:23But
05:24At the same time
05:25They touch the audience
05:26The same time
05:27They can also touch the audience
05:28TV actors
05:29OTT
05:30So what do you think
05:31Do you think
05:32Do you think
05:33Do you think
05:34Do you think
05:35Do you think
05:36That who is a good actor
05:37He can switch
05:38You can switch
05:39Whether you
05:40Do you work with
05:41500 crore
05:42If he is serious
05:44If he is serious
05:45If he is disciplined
05:46And if he is disciplined
05:47And if he is seriously
05:48He can do things
05:50Then he can do things
05:51Like you
05:52And if he does
05:53If he needs serious
05:54Then he can do things
05:55He can do things
05:56Like before
05:57I have said
05:58That it is all about
06:00A speaker
06:01Now
06:02How much volume
06:03How much
06:04How much
06:05How much
06:06How much volume
06:07How much
06:08How much
06:09How much
06:11How much
06:11How much
06:12So, if you are a good DJ, you can play a good song in every place.
06:17Article 370 is a serious and political film.
06:21Do you think that creators are a bit safe and political topics?
06:26Sir, formats are different.
06:29Because whatever you can show in movies, OTT, or theater,
06:33it's not that you can show in television content.
06:37Because there are many issues.
06:40So, these are all things.
06:43I don't have any idea of this,
06:46because I don't work on the technical aspects.
06:49I think channels and creatives will know what they can show,
06:52and what they can't show.
06:54And I think there is a transition phase.
06:58Our industry is also in which you are watching.
07:02There are now very few shows that are running so long,
07:07and there are different stories.
07:09So, the transition phase has come in every thing.
07:12You can see that the theaters have also been a transition phase.
07:15You can see that 90% movies are not working.
07:17Only 10% is running.
07:19Those are the best content that is not working.
07:22Those are the best content that is not working.
07:24Those are the best content that is running.
07:25So, in a very confused state.
07:26This is a transition phase.
07:27And I think that after 2-3 years,
07:30all industries will be released,
07:33and it will grow very well.
07:35So, you can see that as well,
07:36you have to be able to do the same thing as well.
07:38You have to be able to do the same thing as well.
07:40sir
07:42I don't know
07:44but I think
07:47I'm in that stage
07:49where I don't have the power
07:50that I can choose the role
07:53and I can manage the job
07:55when I have the power
07:56you can see I have experimented
07:58and different different things
08:00and then I've tried
08:03that I have tried to
08:04add some 3-4 characteristics
08:05and I'll adapt that to a different equation
08:08and I'll adapt that to that
08:10but of course
08:11when I have the power
08:13I can select my work
08:16and I don't have to depend on anyone
08:19so I'll show you
08:22a lot of variations
08:24in my own
08:25thank you so much guys

12:09I am a good writer.
12:11I never knew their review.
12:13But of course, I hope that wherever I am right, I will feel good.
12:20And wherever I am wrong, they will probably be able to give their praise.
12:27What was the most good idea of your dad's moment?
12:31The most good idea was that I can literally call him the king of good times and bad times.
12:38Not Vijay Maliya, but my dad was living with my life.
12:45And I have never seen him crying or crying.
12:50I mean, if they were winning, then they would win.
12:53What kind of games or activities did you enjoy your dad's moment?
12:58My dad was very big in my life.
13:05They were very big in my life.
13:07So, we didn't have any more activities with us.
13:09But I remember that when I was little, I used to play the school.
13:13So, I think that would be the only activity which is similar to a kind of summer game or something.
13:20If you have a social media, then what would you like to call them?
13:24They don't have social media.
13:26And if they do, then what would you like to call them?
13:32What would you like to call them?
13:35Lastly, what would you like to call them Father's Day?
13:38Thank you so much, Papa.
13:39Thank you so much, Papa.
13:40Whatever you learned or your presence will remain with me.
13:48And I love you.
13:49And I always love you.
13:51I know that you are giving.
13:52You are giving.
13:53You are giving.
13:54You are giving.
13:55You always giving.
13:56Thank you so much.
13:57And I will never let you down.
