00:00Or to see them act, you get to learn so much from it, so I'm sure it enhanced my craft.
00:05And otherwise, also the part that I played, there were a lot of layers and there were a lot of things that were very conflicted with the girl.
00:15Where you get the value of being vulnerable, and you get the value of others in the world.
00:20So I think this is one of the reasons why I chose to be around.
00:23Every person has their own method, every person has their own way.
00:29So on, cut, then off.
00:31Or else you don't love the whole thing.
00:33I enjoyed the work with them.
00:36For me, he was a very special character.
00:40There was one scene, but I prepared him a lot.
00:46Kanika, regards to your part in the film.
00:49The film is a thriller, a proper set-up.
00:52There is a lot of action.
00:54On the face value, it happens too.
00:56There is also comedy.
00:58Action too.
01:00So when you get so many avenues to explore in a story, in a film, how does it enhance your craft as an artist?
01:10Of course it enhances my craft.
01:12Even if I don't get to play all the, suppose I haven't done so much action in a movie.
01:16Or maybe I haven't done so much comedy in a movie.
01:19But still, even when you spend time with so many people, because we were in Rajasthan, so we were all together.
01:24So we were all together.
01:26So even to spend time with such people, or to see them act, you get to learn so much from it.
01:32So I'm sure it enhanced my craft.
01:34And otherwise, also the part that I have played, there were a lot of layers and things that were very conflicted.
01:44So all of that is very interesting to play for an actor.
01:48You know, when it's just, it's just a few things that you're showing, they're not showing, and there are also a lot of things.
01:52So I enjoyed it.
01:54Yeah.
01:55Well, Sharif bhai said this one thing that,
01:57it's always like that you don't have to overlap with your character.
02:01But there's also a famous saying that an actor doesn't have the luxury to judge the character that he or she plays.
02:08In such a scenario, how do you move past that?
02:11If someone has given you a character and that's the moral structure or ideology,
02:19if someone doesn't fit, then how do you see it, pass through it and focus on doing justice to that part?
02:25Sir, I feel like you can hear a little bit about it.
02:31You know, just to keep the morals aside.
02:33I mean, if I take my moral grounds, then I can't do any scripting.
02:36I'm just going to make sure that I'm acting in these films.
02:39Okay.
02:40There's a challenge and there's a good opportunity.
02:44Because I always say that,
02:46this is an eclotha professional, sir.
02:48Where you get the value of vulnerable,
02:51and you get the value in the world.
02:53So I think this is one of the reasons why I chose to be an actor.
02:56So, yeah.
02:58I mean, that's how I see acting.
03:00I see acting as sports.
03:02You know, if Virat Kohli gets the value in the field,
03:04you don't take it personally.
03:05Yeah.
03:06Similarly, if I'm abusing someone, if I'm doing something,
03:08I don't think they should also take it personally.
03:12It's for the need of the character.
03:13It's the need of the story.
03:14It is there for a reason.
03:16So, I don't associate with gimmicky stories,
03:20I like it when, you know, when that,
03:23it's edgy.
03:24It pushes you.
03:25Yeah.
03:26Okay.
03:27And my next question is for all the three actors.
03:29Since you mentioned that, you know,
03:31that you know,
03:32it's a little glitch for them to explore the other side.
03:37For the actor specifically.
03:38Right.
03:39Now tell me,
03:40when you have a scene like this,
03:41it's a train wreck of an emotion.
03:43You know,
03:44it's a train wreck of an emotion.
03:46So,
03:47how do you come out of it then?
03:48What's your process?
03:49And what would be your suggestion for the younger club of talent
03:51that are trying to make their way in the world of entertainment?
03:54Anyone can take the lead and start.
03:56You know,
03:57Sharif bhai will be the right one to begin.
03:59And then begin, you know.
04:00The director's cut is the trigger point.
04:05And I had to come out of any situation.
04:08So, the trick is not to be too serious about it.
04:11No, no.
04:12But,
04:13as you said,
04:14it's a very emotional scene.
04:16So,
04:17it does,
04:19you know,
04:20have a lasting impression on you as well.
04:22But,
04:23I think it will be more and more
04:25until the night,
04:26until the night,
04:27it will remain.
04:28Yes.
04:29But,
04:30I mean,
04:31I mean,
04:32what do you mean?
04:33Exceptional cases,
04:35like,
04:36I've done a film called Dharban.
04:37So,
04:38there were a lot of emotional scenes.
04:40I think there were a lot of emotional scenes.
04:42The only time I got,
04:43I mean,
04:44I got a lot of emotional scenes.
04:45I think that I have to be a sexual mec.
04:47And then,
04:49I'm also,
04:50a lot of emotional scenes.
04:51Then,
04:52a lot of meetings,
04:53was always relative to me.
04:54But,
04:55if,
04:57I don't know,
04:58how to get out of it?
04:59I don't know.
05:00Everybody has their own process
05:02and way to deal with it.
05:03Um,
05:04uh,
05:05so,
05:06I,
05:07have to keep their emotions
05:09It's nice.
05:10It's nice.
05:11It's nice.
05:12It's nice.
05:13It's nice to see that everyone is in a way to understand.
05:16Everyone has a way to understand.
05:18It's nice to see how they can take care of their own way.
05:23I don't know.
05:26It can happen.
05:27I'm sure that people are like,
05:29who are in the way of participating.
05:32I think I've seen that Manoj sir,
05:34who was in a while,
05:36who had a feeling of my parents.
05:38If you look at the screen, it is a salute to be able to go into a character.
05:46Whether it's an Aligad or a Gali Guli, a Satya, it's completely true characters which are all
05:55apart.
05:56But it's a craft and its experience and its experience.
06:02He is always on the edge that he can improve and improve.
06:11He keeps improving the lines, expressions, moods and mannerisms.
06:18That's awesome.
06:20And Kanika and Nakul?
06:23So the switch that I am talking about, especially when I am working, it is in my mind.
06:32Otherwise, if you are doing a, if you are in love with someone, when action is on, cut is off.
06:40Otherwise, you will always love the most.
06:46But I have done a short film which was about suicide prevention.
06:51I had to play this role in which I am Sioux's idol.
06:54So, because he was not so action oriented, he was internally feeling that he had to film.
07:01So, I have taken a lot of days to get into that zone and it was very hard for me to come out of that zone.
07:07That was done.
07:08But for many days, the thoughts are coming into me and I was very scared of what I am doing.
07:14So sometimes, I think, you know, life threatening,
07:18so in such situations, you have to be strong and tell yourself,
07:21it was a character you played, get out of it.
07:23So, it took me time.
07:25But otherwise, with what I am doing regular shoots, I am on and off.
07:28I think, technically, the most difficult thing is during the shoot.
07:32Because in the acting, there is a lot of work that you have done well.
07:37That you have done well in the take.
07:39But completely unrelated to your performance,
07:43you have to go through that again.
07:45You have to go through that again.
07:48Some lighting, some mic problems,
07:51or something completely different from your performance.
07:54So, you have to go through that again.
07:56So, I think, that's more challenging than pack-up.
08:00So, I think, that's what I am doing.
08:01Especially, if you have to keep it from your performance,
08:03and then you have to take it off.
08:04I think, wait, wait, it's obvious problem.
08:06Or you know.
08:07Yes, like the technical nuances of filmmaking.
08:10Which has nothing to do with that particular performance.
08:13But everything else around you.
08:15And Nakul?
08:16Sir, my simple thing is that when I do this, I work for myself.
08:22Whatever other people outside, like your parents, your friends or whatever, I stay away from them.
08:31And for that time, you have a family.
08:35You know, your director, your co-actors, even your light men and everything.
08:39Just go have fun with them.
08:41So you live in a bubble, you live in an ecosystem.
08:44So everything is around that.
08:46So it's on, off, it's very natural.
08:50It feels like it works for me and it works for me.
08:53The moment the film is over, I cut it from there.
08:57So I don't know, it works for me.
09:00I don't know whether it's acting technique or what it is.
09:02But I'll spend the majority of time when we are shooting in Jaipur for 16 hours.
09:08So I'll talk about my parents, my mother, my brother, my brother.
09:13I won't do that.
09:14I don't know if it works for me.
09:16So that works better for me.
09:18So, yeah, that complete disconnect from that world and being here, present is like an easier approach.
09:25So for you, it's attachment and detachment.
09:27Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
09:28I love detachment.
09:29It's the best thing ever.
09:31Okay.
09:32And Arnab, in the film, there's two Diggaj Kala Karey and then there's Manish Chaudhary.
09:37We've been seeing his work since, I don't even remember, 35 odd years now.
09:41When you have such a star cast, does it make you at ease?
09:46Does it make you feel relaxed or it keeps on your toes?
09:49If you're so beautiful, I'll get something else out of the box, out of the way.
09:54I think a bit of both.
09:56Obviously, an inspiration was that I was with senior people, acting and even my technical crew was strong.
10:04We've worked with a lot of seniors even off camera as well.
10:07My DOP, my action director, Sharif Bhai on screen, Manish Ji.
10:12So, it depends on how the mahal is.
10:15I mean, there can be, I'm sure, I've not faced it yet.
10:18But there can be maybe senior actors who can be a bit imposing on you.
10:22But with Sharif Bhai and Manish Ji, there was nothing like that.
10:26I mean, if I have both narrated, we were on the same page.
10:31Sometimes it happens.
10:33And very rightly so, that in a particular scene, I'm thinking about it.
10:37The actor's feedback is a bit different.
10:40Now, you have to respect that seniority also, if that is fitting my requirement or not.
10:46It's very collaborative.
10:50It's very collaborative.
10:51There was no problem with Manish Ji.
10:52Manish Ji with me, in fact, it was more than that.
10:54I mean, they will suggest me something from their experience.
10:57I will not take it.
10:58Because I will have to respect the body of work which Manish Ji has, which Sharif Bhai has.
11:03Amol Gupta Ji has in our film.
11:05He has also the inputs.
11:07All inputs, definitely as a person who is new in the zone, should take.
11:13I mean, you are the writer, director, producer.
11:16But at that point, you have to see what is good for your film.
11:20So, everything is positive.
11:24There is no nervousness.
11:28There is no nervousness.
11:29There is no nervousness.
11:30There is no nervousness.
11:31There is no nervousness.
11:32There is no nervousness.
11:33I am sure that Sharif Bhai, Manish Ji, Amol Sir, my D.O.P. Binodh Ji, Sham Sir, Action Director,
11:41all the inputs are given to the purpose of the film.
11:45So, there is no difference in my opinion.
11:48Okay.
11:49Okay.
11:50You have totally enjoyed it.
11:51I have enjoyed it.
11:52You have enjoyed it.
11:53I have enjoyed it.
11:54You have enjoyed it.
11:55I have enjoyed it.
11:56And my last question is for Sharif Bhai.
11:59I have enjoyed it.
12:00I have enjoyed it.
12:01I have enjoyed it.
12:02I have enjoyed it.
12:03I have enjoyed it.
12:04I have enjoyed it.
12:05Thanks.
12:06Thanks.
12:07It is an edgy scene.
12:08You managed to crack the comedy in that scene.
12:10I have enjoyed it.
12:11What did you tell Siddhar Karnand about that scene?
12:13How did he want you to do it?
12:15How?
12:16He wanted you to do it.
12:17On paper, it was a very self-explanatory script.
12:25So, I had to do it before, I was trying to save it.
12:30And then suddenly I had to break into a Russian accent.
12:34Three days later I had to work on that Russian accent.
12:40Russian accent on the Russian accent and when it was very serious, people didn't feel like what was going on.
12:48When I was talking about the first time, the whole thing was completely changed.
12:54I had a lot of fun working with them.
12:58He was a very special character for me.
13:02There was one scene, but I had a lot of preparation for it.
13:08When we were in the shoot, I really enjoyed working with Siddhaan.
13:18So with that, we have reached the end of this conversation.
13:20Do you have any other things that you want to ask me about the film?
13:26So please feel free.
13:28No.
13:30Please watch this film in the theatre.
13:34Honestly, just because I am in this film, it is not a very important opportunity for me.
13:40This film is a film that has never been discussed on the subject of India today.
13:46So that has a novelty.
13:50So please experience that on 18th of July itself.
13:53Perfect.
13:55On that note, thank you so much and I wish you all the best for Murder Bad.
14:00Thank you so much.
14:03Take care.
14:04Thank you so much.
14:06Take care.
