00:00Thank you so much.
00:02Thank you so much.
00:04My name is Titikshya.
00:06What is your name?
00:08Yes, Titikshya is a Sanskrit word,
00:10and it is called Sehin Shakti.
00:14Endurance for tough conditions.
00:16How do you feel about your journey?
00:20How do you feel about your journey?
00:22How do you feel about your journey?
00:24How do you feel about your journey as an actor?
00:26I feel like I was just in Bhopal's theatre learning.
00:32But my journey started here,
00:35as I said before,
00:37that I am a lawyer,
00:38so I started giving auditions in Bombay.
00:41First of all, I started some corporate films and ads.
00:46Then, luckily, I got to work on films and web.
00:52After that, I started doing acting workshops and auditions.
00:58Today, I am a television actor.
01:01So, what is your name?
01:06How do you feel about your character?
01:08So, this is a very curious story.
01:12Last year, I was in fashion TV as a legal head.
01:15And at that time, as I said, I was giving auditions.
01:19So, the casting director, Ashutosh,
01:22they sent me a script.
01:24They sent me a script that I wanted to audition for Gita's work.
01:28So, the brief of Gita,
01:30I was a judge and I was already practicing as a lawyer.
01:38So, why didn't I give her a chance?
01:40So, I sent my audition to audition for my office.
01:45And luckily, it got selected.
01:47And that's how I got the character of Gita.
01:50And Jagrity is a great experience.
01:55Because when we started, we were shooting with a lot of children.
01:59And the first time, I got the opportunity to work with a lot of TV actors.
02:05So, I think, my journey has been a lot of learning.
02:09So, I learned a lot.
02:10And in the pre-leap, I also talked about the actors.
02:12So, there were many actors,
02:13like Yashgira Ji.
02:14They all had a lot of learning and major scenes with me.
02:18So, I learned a lot of things with the kids.
02:21And then, after the leap, when I came back,
02:24there was a lot of different shape in the character.
02:27That was positive to negative.
02:30So, that was also a great learning experience.
02:33So, I think that's why I was trying to make a lot of different shapes.
02:43So, how much do you do that?
02:44How much do you do that?
02:46How much do you do that?
02:47How much do you do that?
02:48Yes.
02:49I think this is a lot of times.
02:51I was starting from my show on television.
02:53And in one show, in one show,
02:55I got both shades.
02:58So, I understood the transition a little bit.
03:01But luckily, because I am a theater background,
03:04I had to learn how to explore human layers.
03:11How a positive person can react negatively.
03:15How many situations do that?
03:17And it will never be negative in your life.
03:19So, I believe that for me,
03:21it was a little difficult to understand human layers.
03:25But once it was completely in character,
03:28it was a cakewalk.
03:30a lot of movements.
03:31How many activities do you play in Dhaka?
03:32How many activities do you do?
03:33How many activities do you play in Dhaka?
03:34How many activities do you play in Dhaka?
03:35How many activities do you play in Dhaka?
03:38Well, my biggest events in Dhaka was that
03:42we rehearsed for action sequences for 4 days.
03:44She was rehearsed for a long time.
03:46She had a very lovely experience.
03:49I think she was trained with many months.
03:53Basically, the action directors with Hollywood.
03:57But when we were training with her,
04:01it was the same.
04:03She was training with her.
04:05We also had training with her.
04:09She was very professional.
04:11She is very much into her work.
04:13We had a lot of experience.
04:16We had a lot of experience.
04:18Can you tell us about her?
04:20I think in Dhakar,
04:23she was about her.
04:27I didn't like that.
04:29I didn't like that.
04:31I didn't like that.
04:33I didn't like that.
04:35I didn't like that.
04:37I didn't like that.
04:39I didn't like that.
04:40I didn't like that.
04:42I didn't like that.
04:43I tried to take space.
04:45Because I think she is very well in her own space also.
04:51In other words,
04:52the other actors on our set,
04:54like Arjun Rampal,
04:56and then all the experienced actors on the set,
05:01I think with her,
05:02she was very smoothly on the whole shoot.
05:06So my personal experience was that she is a brilliant actress.
05:10and I think she doesn't need anyone's space.
05:13So I loved working with her.
05:15So this is a very important thing.
05:16I also talked about the mental health and awareness.
05:19I was always exaggerating.
05:20I thought something about supporting the mental health and awareness.
05:22I was mad at this point.
05:23How do we have the mental health and awareness?
05:25I also talked about this.
05:26How do we know about what we feel about mental health and awareness?
05:28How do we know about prevention and prevention and prevention?
05:30It is a matter of course.
05:31We asked them about mental health and prevention,
05:32so we've asked them about the mental health issues.
05:34As you mentioned the problem of positive mental health issues.
05:37After all,
05:39it began on lockdown due to the pandemic.
05:40There were protests before we had started going into therapy,
05:43I think when it was COVID, it was a big challenge for everyone, especially in our industry, which is an artistic industry, entertainment industry, it was a difficult time.
05:55But I think conversation makes a lot of difference.
05:59Even my parents admitted to COVID, I have lost my very best friend out of mental health issues.
06:11So I think after that, there will be a little awareness in my life.
06:17All our friends try to do that at least, whatever we are doing in our lives, we have a conversation, a Zoom call or a connection.
06:29So I think we can solve a lot of things.
06:34As actors, we are watching a lot of things, we are doing different things.
06:39So I think, yeah, I believe that mental health issues can be solved by conversations.
06:43It was a very interesting journey.
06:45I have learned a lot of things.
06:51So, what was the bonding money?
06:53What was the bonding money?
06:55What was the difference?
06:57What was the bonding money?
06:59It was a very interesting journey.
07:01I have learned a lot.
07:03Definitely, I said, like, I signed.
07:04When the show started, our co-actors, I had told you that they were kids.
07:09So, with the kids, we were playing as well as Jagriti, Asmi, Kachodi, Tamanna, and Sipna playing with them.
07:18It was a very good experience with everyone. We were dancing with videos.
07:25Sometimes we had to study on the set, so we would help them with them.
07:29I and my co-actors, Yashgira, who were doing Harish.
07:33We both tried to entertain the kids.
07:37And yes, I will tell you the best thing about the co-actors.
07:41Yashgira had a special chai.
07:44I think it was my favourite.
07:47We can talk to our chai partners.
07:50I had a lot of suggestions and guides for their diet.
07:55I think, with weight loss, anti-bloating, all the tips.
08:00Araya sir, it was the same.
08:02I think it was our different picks because he was very senior.
08:06I will say a little limited, but he was also a very supportive co-actor.
08:10So, yes, I enjoyed this segment.
08:12What was the biggest challenge for your parents?
08:13What was the biggest challenge for your parents?
08:22What was the biggest challenge for your parents?
08:24Look, my parents taught me one thing.
08:28I think I applied to them.
08:30That education never goes for waste.
08:32So, I was locked in one time.
08:34I became an established lawyer in Bombay.
08:36So, in the small towns, in the small towns, in the small towns, in the small towns, in the small towns,
08:42that I had to study and then I had to do it.
08:45So, I think I did that.
08:46Initially, my parents had a little difficult for me.
08:49I had a very happy corporate job, with a lack of baggage.
08:52He had to leave acting.
08:54So, at the beginning, I didn't get any acceptance.
08:56I had to fight for a month.
08:58But I think, slowly and gradually, I realized that I have to get projects
09:03that I have to do properly acting.
09:07Or I am able to do good acting projects.
09:11And with that, I am not leaving law.
09:14Because we are lawyers.
09:16If you are not doing a full-time job,
09:18you will open your practice anywhere.
09:21So, I think, the balance was that I could make them.
09:26So, I think that I have to do a lot of social media.
09:30So, as an Indian actor, how much pressure you are
09:34that your social media followers should be.
09:36So, that's what it is.
09:38So, that's what it is.
09:40Look, with me, there was a different scenario.
09:43I personally believe that if we are actors,
09:46we would have to work on our craft.
09:48Rather than just following followers.
09:50Because my first break, Gita was a leader in Jagriti.
09:54I didn't get any followers.
09:56I didn't get any followers.
09:57I have a very minimal followers.
09:58I think, I have been a normal layman person.
10:00But on my audition basis, I got a job.
10:04And Gita had a lot of TV actresses auditioned for Gita.
10:08So, I think it is purely based on that you are working well.
10:16Followers come with your work, I feel.
10:20But I think, the work should come first.
10:22And then, it comes to social media.
10:24I think, the work should come first.
10:26And then, it comes to social media, I think.
10:28Yeah, Gita is the title of the new Subha.
10:30So, do you think that in your career,
10:32there is a new Subha,
10:34where you started your action?
10:36It was a new Subha.
10:38It was a different transition.
10:40It was a job life.
10:42It was a corporate job.
10:44I think that in the real world,
10:46the country was a good place.
10:48It was a new Subha.
10:50I think, the people of love,
10:52coming to my Kalal logo,
10:54coming to the national television.
10:56It's a big difference.
10:58So, I think that,
11:00Yes, the most important change in life came from the show.
11:04I think, in social media,
11:06I think, also, casting from social media,
11:08I think, there is a lot of those people.
11:10You have to make this role.
11:12As an actor, I have a lot of people who are interested in the interview and have a lot of people who are interested in the interview.
11:22I have not experienced this personally, but there are some requirements that are specifically written.
11:30Requirements for so-and-so characters and minimum followers.
11:34I think that eligibility is already zero.
11:38It has never happened to me that I have casted by followers.
11:43But I think that in a lot of trends, there will be saturation.
11:49I will say that the influencing business is a very different business.
11:54Acting business is very different.
11:56If you have an influencer, you might not be able to deliver that well.
12:01And if you want to make an actor in any content, it is not that he can make a brilliant reel.
12:07So I think it all goes hand in hand.
12:09So craft matters a lot. Again, I will say.
12:12I will say.
12:13Reality shows, if you want to make an actor, you want to show a reality show.
12:22What do you want to make an actor?
12:25Right.
12:26What do you want to make an actor?
12:29I understand that our industry has a lot of marketing based.
12:36You can be a very good actor.
12:38But the better you want to make an actor.
12:41And the better you want to make an actor.
12:44And the better you want to make an actor in reality show.
12:48So I think that it is a fair choice.
12:50But my personal belief is that I don't want to do anything for fame.
12:57I want to make a good job.
13:00Even Bigg Boss, you will see that there are very established actors.
13:05Who have already done a good job in life.
13:08So I don't think that I want to go for fame or a good job in reality show.
13:13But I feel that there are some new experiences.
13:19If you want to prove an actor in reality show, I would definitely like to come.
13:24One other thing.
13:25There is a process to do.
13:28When the industry in Japan, you have a very big industry.
13:31You have to hire a lot of money.
13:33Yes.
13:34There are lots of things in which can help you to do.
13:37I think that you have the same country.
13:39What what did you do about your story?
13:41I would say that this is what I see in every industry.
13:44I went with a legal industry, I was in the corporate industry.
13:47So I think that the atmosphere of this type is a lot of people-person-based.
13:53Our entertainment industry is very open and has an open mindset.
14:00Whatever happens, it's kind of open out there.
14:03But everything depends on your character.
14:06At the same time, you have to understand the wrong thing.
14:09So, dealing with a place and a place to deal with it is also key.
14:14So, I've learned my lawyer skills.
14:17I think it can be a lawyer with me.
14:20So, I'm sure it will never come in front of me.
14:24In fact, I have legal clients in the entertainment industry.
14:29When I look back, how do you describe your journey in your journey?
14:36I feel it is enlightenment.
14:43I will say that in that show, it is a transition.
14:49Maybe there are so many years of theatre, workshops, and constant auditions.
14:55So, I feel that I will call my show as well.
14:59So, I also tell you a few times.
15:00I am a very young person.
15:01I usually start acting.
15:02So, senior actors are always different.
15:04I do not know who is acting.
15:05So, do you have to know who is acting?
15:07Do you have to know who is acting?
15:09So, do you have to know who is acting?
15:12I have seen many things, but I didn't feel lucky.
15:30I told you that there are some people who don't like and talk.
15:37I have seen a lot of things in my face.
15:40But I have worked with Akshay Kumar, Imran Ashmi, Kandhra, Karan Patel, Ashutosh Rana, and I have worked with them and I don't think that I am a brilliant actor who is a very good actor.
16:01I don't think it will ever happen to them.
16:05I was taught in a positive way. I was doing an ad shoot and I remember that it was an ad shoot and I was playing with her daughter.
16:16While the shot, they told me that I should have 5 minutes of break.
16:22In that 5 minutes, they told me that the ads should be fast in dialogue delivery.
16:28So, I think this is a positive way to explain it.
16:35But yes, I have seen some rude actors on the set.
16:39They also listen to us.
16:42But I think to each its own. It's all about characters.
16:45So, it depends on how you are as an actor you are secure.
16:48So, I would like to say that I would like to thank the fans to all of my fans.
16:55I would like to thank the fans so much for giving my fans to all of my fans.
16:58I would like to thank the fans to all of my fans.
17:01I would like to thank the fans to all of my fans.
17:04So, yes, the new projects are coming.
17:06The new web series that Nitya Mehra directed me.
17:10You will be able to see it very quickly.
17:12Applause and training.
17:13I have done a series.
17:15There is a web series called Shavastha Sang Shavastha.
17:18It's a UV based comedy drama.
17:20You will be able to see me on a lead actor on an OTT platform.
17:24And with this, I have done a web series on Hansel Mehta.
17:29I have done a web series on Netflix.
17:30You will be able to see me on a different actor.
17:33And there are other things lined up.
17:36So, I hope that you enjoy me on new actors.
