On the sets of a new show, actor Mohit Malhotra is not one to walk up unprepared. The actor claims that he goes through a fairly involved process to comprehend his role.
“I always start with the backstory of the character I am playing at the time. I attempt to imagine what his upbringing and early years might have been like. What led him to develop into who he is today? What kind of attire he must be sporting, allowing you some creative license.
Additionally, the creators occasionally make references to television shows or films that I’ve already seen. I occasionally take notes about it. If I’m given a script, I first begin taking notes on everything my character says and try to understand why he says certain things and what he’s trying to convey. I then describe my persona on a separate piece of paper. what his upbringing would have been like, what caused him to act in the way that he is, what motivates him, and did something happen to him when he was a child? I thus strive to write those notes. When I write, my thoughts begin to flow. and many other things,” Mohit Malhotra claims.
The most crucial aspect of life, he continues, is consistency. You are learning as long as you are improving every single day. It’s fantastic to learn something new about your craft every single day. The best course of action is to take it. Unless I’ve left everything to faith, I believe that my main goal for myself is to just improve as an actor.
In response to the question of how he manages his personal and professional lives as an actor, he replies, “It’s not as hard as it used to be earlier. I mean, I have time set up for personal projects. I now have 8 days to myself, I shoot for roughly 20 days, and the hours are not as busy. So, in my opinion, it’s pretty nice now. I mean, regardless of my shoot, I don’t skip my workout. I get to read my books, which I love doing, in between shootings. I believe that by adjusting to the environment for the past 12 or 13 years, I have found the right balance. I believe I’ve managed to strike a balance that allows me to lead a productive personal and professional life”.
