Kshitij Chauhan, who has joined a list of beginner actors in this industry, has received positive reviews for his appearance in his debut of the OTT series, ‘Chutzpah’.
In an exclusive interview with Etimes, the actor spilled nuts to make his debut in the digital room, the actor he noticed in the industry, and the filmmaker he wanted to do.
Quote …
When the superstar was established to make their way on OTT, you must make your debut in the digital room.
How does it feel? It feels amazing.
I thank you that I debuted in the digital room, which is just another media to show off your craft.
That’s OTT who gave me my first break, so, it would always be special to me.
And the best part of it is that with the best people in business – Dinesh Vijan, Mrighkeep Singh Lamba, and Simarpreet Singh.
How do you deal with the camera for the first time? It’s not exactly the first time.
I have faced the previous camera for ads and short films.
But yes, for a long format, it is the first time and feels real that I finally get the chance to do what I always want to do.
What kind of reaction has you received so far for ‘Chutzpah’? The reaction has been extraordinary.
I have gotten so many messages and calls.
At first, I really thought people would hate me for the character I played, but the audience was smart enough to distinguish between actors and characters.
They found my character of despicable Pratek but, at the same time, they showered me with love.
It feeds your artistic soul.
How and when did you decide to be an actor? My story is very different from most people.
I don’t know anything about acting and haven’t decided to come to Mumbai.
I was studying acting, and at the same time, also auditioned.
However, when I find out the acting process – how when you build your character, you observe different people, you learn about human emotions, you learn about yourself and how you react in a different situation, you approach yourself and that’s the beauty of this art – I fell in love with him and realized that this was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life.
