Is it necessary for actors to be extroverted and outgoing nowadays? - Page 3

No i feel like starts need to start expressing who they really are more ! i am not saying be an a** or a b***h but just be unique ! Ranveer stands out cause of his crazy persona ! where is AB was known as angry young man back in his day ! not related to bollywood but virat kohli aint crazy or over energetic offscreen yet he still gets a lot of girls going crazy over him !!

Why just actors? Everyone needs to be extroverted and outgoing nowadays. Or at least fake it till you make it. Networking ka zamana hain. Have you seen the job market? Its the same everywhere, first world or third world.😆

Media has expanded exponentially in the past few decades. What would have been a few interviews and interactions here and there in the past is now a life under the microscope.

Extroverted ? I'm not sure

But you need to have a strong network...Its not only in acting profession but in service sector too

Having a strong network helps..You can be immensely talented or intelligent but its of no use unless you are getting a right kind of chance to prove what you are actually capable of..

I think being extroverted or at least in some way connecting with people happily, kind of works in every area of your life. Be it personal or any kind of profession. If you can connect with people, be happy and communicate well then human tendencies are to give you more preference. But that in itself is not enough. Look at AB Jr. He had almost every one from the industry considering him a pal until a few years back but then his lack of talent couldn't sustain him professionally. So, the truth is that you have to be an all rounder like SRK. Communicate well and work hard and have some talent as well. That is how you succeed. Some people have it intrinsically and mind you, such people can be sociopaths too .. they also know how and when to pull others down to make way for themselves. Using and abusing people is part of this social drama. It sucks for the people at the receiving end though. Good people don't last long. Just being able to be an extrovert will not help in itself. Some socio-political ways are what most be people use to succeed. Sucks, I know!!

I think you have to be, because if you arent then people will call you boring and bland. This own forum is quite guilty of that...people are always saying that Shraddha, Sid, Sushant are boring and that they are bland... Whereas Ranveer, Parineeti, Alia are "the best" because they are loud and in your face. There is no respect or appreciation for quieter personalities.

Are you saying naturally outgoing, extroverted people can be sociopaths?

@TM Very interesting thread... Pendulum has swung in the other direction and now actors are too extroverted or pretend to be and we get so much info about them... TMI ka jamana hai
