He did through some of the EMA phase and maybe before that. But he stopped because he was a mess, he was so into character and said he would sit with Abhiraj and cry out of frustration. I think thats when he was distant in sets from everyone.

It was originally a Ravi suggestion, so he tried it.

Ya that works for some, doesn't for some. It becomes difficult to separate yourself from the character unless you're trained in it. And since you mentioned ema that would've been mentally exhausting. The character itself was going through so much, imagine ankit 😥😥

He is doing just fine without method acting. ek se toh tum kya kya kara rahe ho, and your nachaniya can't give two expressions in 10 shots.

Infact Anki was not at all talking to anyone properly at that time of method acting...and when he stopped he is much better n chill

Some words are similar huh 🤯

Ayyo rama tenga nahi yaar. Thenga as in finger. In hindi they say this for showing the finger but not middle one. It just means to reject something in slang hindi.

Are the mental toll it can take is too much. Ek baar ko physical one person can handle easily, but when it comes to complex characters, you should not even attempt to do that in this kinda schedule where you are continuously shooting 14-16 hrs without any break.

Does F smoke? tbf there's barely any scope for method acting in itv shows. You need a deep understanding of the character, yahan toh 2 din pehle shooting se script likhte hain

True. It's better suited for movies or short dramas. You have time to get yourself out of the mentality. Something like daily soap is gonna mess with your mind so bad tho.

I know some stage actors do this (and it's freaking amazing but people close to them become intimidated)

Also know this South actor had to live in a different house from his wife because the character he played disturbed himself and her. Apparently she said he was like a different person entirely.

I was just surprised because you gotta really be dedicated to do method acting. It's quite hard if you aren't trained or used to it.

Ravi can F himself. Method acting can take a serious mental toll. You can't ask actors to do that for a six day show. This just makes me wanna go hug him.

There are so many actors who feel exhausted after such acting techniques, and it's when they have enough time.

Tbh writers shouldn't suggest method acting. It should be something that comes from the actors themselves. It's damaging to make someone do that when they aren't prepared. Because at the end of the day.. writer's aren't acting.

Idk I just find audis a really nice place.

Cars not so much. Too many things which can go wrong.

Like gear shaft or steering wheel getting in the way🤣

Is it brilliant...hell yes. There is nothing like realism. Idk if you've seen LOTR, but there's a scene where Aragorn screams...it's a poignant scene where they think they've lost their friends. That scream came because he'd kicked a helmet and broke his toe. Rather than cutting the scene he went ahead and used that.

As I said, it's marvellous for getting results. But it can also F you up.

It depends on your location. As in from where you/your parents come from. Both my parents come from rural/townish north indian BG and we have strict codes about black and white. They are nope. However if I were to get married, my parents would be fine, because it'd be delhi.

I think you can wear black... just not on weddings/ any pious occasion, pooja etc. But isn't black considered taboo in other cultures too? In weddings it's certainly a stigma. Once we were shopping for lehangas, and the woman beside us did not buy a lehanga she really liked just because it was black.

Ah I see

Mum just doesn't like wearing black at all. Blouse or something is okay but not saree. As long as there's a mix of colours. But for her, married must wear red/brown bindi. I told her I don't care and she stopped bothering about me 😅

On the other hand she strictly doesn't wear pure white. I understand it's also something that isn't auspicious.

That Lehenga bit is actually quite sad. I'm very picky so if I reject that, I probably would have to settle for something I don't like and the feeling is awful.

I believe they were full black for Christian funerals. White for Chinese and Hindu funerals. We don't do that in my fam. I've seen people wear random colours last time
