I have always loved acting and playing characters since my childhood. When I was in primary school, I was really good at entertaining others by doing caricatures of Bollywood comedians. Everybody used to get excited when I was on stage for one of my performances. Therefore, my friends and teachers used to tell me that some day, I would be a great comedian. When I was a teenager, I used to wish I could be a handsome and romantic actor. I was really fascinated by romantic movies. While watching such movies I used to put myself in the place of the leading men, and I would get lost inside the love stories. It might be funny to say that I was very concerned about my appearance. “How could I make myself look like him?” This used to be my primary concern. Oh! I remember, using skin lightening cream 5-10 times a day and my tireless efforts to change my curly hair to smooth and silky. I used to apply herbal shampoos, paste of curd and flour of gram pulse to do my hair and it used to take many hours every day.
Really, I tried a lot to look more handsome because I used to think it was important for someone to be an actor. However, I was disappointed when I started to realize my efforts were not working, and that my appearance had not changed much at all. My dark complexion and my curly hair always followed me even though I tried to run away from them. My mother was there to notice all my activities and she knew me very well. She used to suggest that I focus on developing my attitude and aptitude rather than placing so much importance on my appearance. Then, I realized that I have to become a protagonist (a lead actor) with whom audiences can empathize rather than a romantic actor. I thought my actions should motivate others and bring change in their lives. My roles should shake them and give them energy to overcome every obstacle in life. I wished I could become a lead actor in a biographical movie such as Will Smith’s character in the Hollywood movie “The Pursuit of Happiness”; where the lead character struggles with homelessness. His character is really stunning. Life gives us many troubles, but we should never give up in our struggle to overcome them. I believe that such characters truly share how we can all overcome the obstacles of life.
