00:00To entertain people and you're always, you know, always struggling and trying to find
00:12your own path.
00:13See, I think it's that passion, man, to play different roles and, you know, entertain
00:17audience.
00:18I think that is what drives me or any actor for that matter.
00:21I mean, with respect to our flops or hits, when you stop, when you think we get a hit
00:28or we get a flop, you stop and think why you started this.
00:31I mean, that is what ultimately drives us towards this.
00:41What I feel like is, whatever I do in life, it's not that I want to become a heroine,
00:47I want to live a lifestyle like that.
00:49I want to do a job that I like and I love acting.
00:54And whatever I want to do, I want to do it well.
00:57And of course, at the end of the day, whatever work you do, you will get paid.
01:01And if you do good work in that, you will get recognition in your specific field, whatever
01:05it is, even if it is medical, even if it is acting, whatever, I mean, or business.
01:10So, my only belief is to just enjoy what you do.
01:14And if you really enjoy what you do, it will be something as if you're living.
01:18Like how you breathe, you enjoy what you do.
01:21So, I think it's inseparable in that space.
01:23And for me, acting is that.
01:25So, that drives me.
01:31That is the beautiful thing about the industry, right?
01:34There is a space in this industry for everyone.
01:37Be it someone from a family, there is a place for them.
01:41Be it someone like Meenakshi who is coming from an army backdrop, she also has space
01:45in this industry.
01:46It is all about your skill.
01:48And it's all about your passion that drives you.
01:52See, no one can push anyone away from it.
01:54You understand that?
01:55People are often, they misinterpret things.
01:58They think, okay, if there's someone from a family, probably he's snatching someone's
02:02work.
02:03It is the other way around also.
02:05So, no one is trying to snatch someone's work.
02:07But ultimately, I'll tell you, if you take this nepotism as an example, my sister got
02:13into the film industry with the same support.
02:16But recently she's produced a film and she's introduced 13 new actors.
02:20And they've done exceptionally well for themselves.
02:22See, there's always a give and take.
02:24And if you're an actor coming from an influential film family, and if you're not talented,
02:32there's no space for you, boss.
02:34Because people will see through.
02:36It is not easy to, you know, hide their fact and keep making films and, you know, rub it
02:39on people.
02:40That is never the case.
02:41And if you're an amazing, talented guy, you might probably get your break a little late.
02:45But eventually, you will get it if you don't let go your passion.
02:54No, no, no, no.
02:55Nothing like that.
02:56I think even more they do.
02:57If you're from a family, if you don't do your work right.
02:59I mean, every reviewer or every journalist has a right to criticize someone's work.
03:05As long as it's constructive, it's fine.
03:09If it goes overboard, sometimes it's bad for anyone.
03:11But constructive criticism, we are all ready to accept it.
03:14We know this field is like that.
03:16And we're ready to take that on.
03:23Yes, we wanted to show what actually happened there.
03:26We want to fictionalize it.
03:28The thing is, I wanted to make it very clear that I'm not going to endorse Vasu.
03:32I'm not going to say he's a good guy.
03:34Become like this.
03:35Towards the end, in the film, I'm going to show if you do things like Vasu,
03:39how you're going to mess up your life also.
03:41So, it is about your perspective when you watch the film.
03:44You'll think if I do what Vasu does, probably I'll go through the same bad things, right?
03:49See, we're not going to only glorify it.
03:52We're trying to show the flip side of gambling also.
03:54So, what you take from it is up to you.
03:58I mean, this is going to be an explosive film.
04:05In terms of performances, in terms of taking you back to that era.
04:10It is going to be a different theatrical experience.
04:14Loaded with a lot of commercial elements.
04:18Action, songs and all of that.
04:22It's going to be a popcorn flick.
04:23I think this movie is definitely going to entertain each and every one of you.
04:33No, Matka is definitely something that will be interesting to watch.
04:39It is a story that I think a lot of people know about.
04:41But have never really dwelled into it like deep.
04:44So, I think through this film, they'll get to know what it is.
04:47And how it was at that time.
04:49So, it's going to be time travelling back to that time and era.
04:52And living a little through Vasu.
04:54To be able to feel and understand what that was.
04:57So, it's going to be a fun ride.
04:58And emotional, full of action.
05:00Everything is there.
05:01So, I think the audiences will have a great time going to the theatres.
