Considering the hectic nature of their job, ask Sushant Singh Rajput how actors maintain their mental health, he says, "Who says actors are maintaining their mental health? That's a wrong belief. The most important thing that an actor could do to protect himself from all these things (pressures, demands, paparazzi culture, etc.) is just to know why a person is doing what he is doing. No matter what you do, and what you like, be it money, fame or competition just make sure you know your reasons.

Speaking on the method an actor follows to get the nuances of a character, he says, "We have created this phenomenon that having abs or a ripped body is what it should be, but it is the most frivolous thing that an actor can do.People talk about actors being spontaneous, all that is bullsh*t, a lie. There is nothing like natural or spontaneous actor. There is always an artifice; you will always listen to action. You always know cut, and you are aware, so there is nothing spontaneous or natural. The moment you identify the things that make a character, you need to spend a certain amount of time doing deliberate repetitions of actions, so it becomes a habit and a part of you over a period of time.
