Aditya Roy Kapur: One Can't Have A Road Map As An Actor
Acting as a profession is associated with stardom, money, glamour & glitz but Aditya Roy Kapoor says it is an unsure space to be in as it is impossible for an artiste to prepare a road map to success.
Acting
as
a
profession
may
be
associated
with
stardom,
money,
glamour
and
glitz,
but
Aditya
Roy
Kapoor
says
it
is
an
"unsure" space
to
be
in
as
it
is
impossible
for
an
artiste
to
prepare
a
road
map
to
success.
Aditya,
who
started
his
journey
as
a
VJ
and
went
on
to
feature
in
supporting
roles
until
his
breakthrough
in
Aashiqui
2,
believes
an
actor
is
out
of
job
once
the
film
is
wrapped.
"As
an
actor
technically
when
you
are
off
a
film,
you
are
out
of
a
job.
An
actor
goes
from
job
to
job.
By
virtue,
acting
is
an
unsure
profession.
You
generally
can't
have
a
road
map
as
an
actor.
It
is
impossible
to
decide
where
will
you
be
in
about
five
years.
I
don't
know
where
I
will
be
in
five
months
from
now.
And
I
believe
that
is
what
keeps
us
on
our
toes
and
excited," the
actor
told
PTI
in
an
interview.
Aditya
Roy
Kapur
further
commented,
"If
a
film
does
not
do
well
there
is
a
certain
period
when
you
do
feel
low.
It
affects
you
because
you
put
in
a
lot
of
effort.
Everybody
in
the
team
puts
a
lot
of
energy.
But
again
films
are
a
collective
process.
It
is
not
one
person's
victory
or
one
person's
failure.
It
is
important
to
keep
that
in
consideration,"
he
adds.
The
actor,
whose
last
two
solo
outings
Fitoor
and
Ok
Jaanu
did
not
strike
a
right
chord
with
the
audience,
says
his
love
for
the
craft
helps
him
in
bounce
back.
"What
keeps
me
going
is
the
desire
to
do
it
again.
Acting
is
something
I
love
doing.
Failure
of
a
film
doesn't
diminish
my
love
for
acting.
An
opportunity
to
work
with
a
new
director,
a
new
script
keeps
me
excited.
Aditya
is
looking
forward
to
the
release
Dharma
Productions' pre-Independence
set
love
story
Kalank.
The
actor
says
he
accepted
the
role
of
Dev
because
he
had
never
worked
in
a
period
drama.
"The
setting
of
the
film
was
very
different
from
what
I
had
done
in
the
past.
I
was
excited
about
it
but
also
fearful
as
I
was
initially
not
sure
about
what
I
need
to
bring
to
the
role
in
this
kind
of
setting.''
Kalank
also
stars
Varun
Dhawan,
Alia
Bhatt,
Sanjay
Dutt,
Madhuri
Dixit
and
Sonakshi
Sinha
and
is
all
set
to
hit
the
theatres
on
April
17,
2019.
