00:00People have started calling you OTT's Shah Rukh Khan
00:03Who are you?
00:04A lot of people
00:06What you call a start-up is divided
00:08Only one person won't get everything
00:17What would Kota's Jeetu Sir suggest to the Panchayat's Abhishek?
00:24I think the way Abhishek Tripathi is behaving in Season 2
00:30He is a little comfortable
00:32I think Kota's Jeetu Sir will tell him to continue
00:36Be comfortable
00:42What was his reaction when you got success?
00:45Did he express it?
00:47No, he doesn't express it at all
00:49And he doesn't react at all
00:52But yes, when something happens
00:55People around him come and say
00:57I just saw the Panchayat
00:59How did you convince your father?
01:02Don't ask
01:03I used to think that my parents are very aware of things
01:07They know a lot of things
01:08But somehow
01:09Some things are not for them
01:11Like leaving IIT and going into acting
01:14This is not for them
01:15So there will be a reaction
01:17It will take time to convince them
01:20So I think every youth
01:22In this phase
01:24When they are 24-23 years old
01:27They have to face these things
01:29Whatever their parents want them to do
01:32Whether it's about their love life
01:34Or about their jobs
01:36Or if they have a different perspective of life
01:40They have to explain it to them
01:42They struggle in that
01:44And I think
01:46Entertainment and stories are around that
01:50What about that struggling phase?
01:52Where you were coaching
01:54When I came here
01:55YouTube had evolved a lot
01:57I wasn't a cinema actor at that time
01:59But I was acting somewhere
02:01That was a good thing
02:03But the people who came before me
02:05They had to wait a lot
02:07To reach cinema
02:09To reach those stories
02:11That struggle is a very dangerous space
02:20The character in season 2
02:22Who you call Banrakas
02:25He's a great Banrakas
02:27Do you think it's necessary to have this character?
02:31Banrakas type in every village
02:33I think it's necessary
02:36I want everyone to be a hero
02:38I don't want any villain to exist
02:41Banrakas doesn't feel he's doing anything wrong
02:44That's our perspective
02:46Our notion
02:48How we see it
02:53Any story of engineering
02:55That you've never told
02:57The placement time was funny
03:00A lot of funny things were happening
03:02There was a scene
03:04A company came and said
03:06We'll only take 6-pointers
03:08No 7, no 5
03:10We only need 6-pointers
03:12A lot of people wore formals for the first time
03:14The shirt had a funny visual
03:16They made fun of me
03:18That I wore 6-pointers for the first time
03:20And everyone's clothes were shining
03:22People call you the Shahrukh Khan of OTT
03:26Who?
03:28A lot of people
03:35Do you think OTT has the capability
03:38To take you to stardom?
03:41I think that reach is possible
03:45Everyone has internet
03:47Everyone is connected
03:49There are a lot of people
03:51On the other side of the screen
03:53The one you call stardom
03:55Is divided
03:57Choose one
03:59Bachelors is fun
04:01Is the door closed?
04:03Windows?
04:05Speakers?
04:07Will you be able to tell us
04:09About your next project?
04:11No
04:13I'll ask this question in a different way
04:15Why do Saxena Sarkar and Kumar
04:17Always hit this cocktail?
04:19What's the secret?
04:21I've worked a lot with Sarkar
04:23We have a different chemistry
04:25He's my senior
04:27We've done a lot of plays
04:29He used to write, I used to act
04:31There's an understanding
04:33If we're going to do something
04:35Even if it's a serious script
04:37We try to find fun in it
04:39I think that's a formula
04:41I think that comfort zone
04:43When you create something
04:45I think that works with audiences
