Deepak on being referred to as ‘underrrated’
On being asked about his perception of being ‘underrated’, Deepak said that there can’t be a greater compliment for him than this. He feels that if audience thinks like that for him, they actually expect more from him and haven’t grown tired of his work yet. Deepak feels it’s important to bring freshness to each project in showbiz.
He stated, “Being underrated is a beautiful thing. It feels like people are still watching my showreel, and my real work hasn’t come yet. I am constantly learning and evolving. One must continue to learn.”
Deepak on young actors
Talking about new generation actors, Deepak told that they lack clarity and patience. If they don’t possess confidence for things which they need it in, it’s a big problem. According to Deepak, one needs to be confident in the specific thing they are pursuing. The clarity is crucial.
Deepak quoted, “There is a lot of buzz and exposure on social media. Everyone knows everything. Give yourself time, at least two hours, as an actor. Sab airport mein busy hai. I want to ask them- What are you doing? Where are you going?”
For the uninitiated, Deepak Dobriyal has given stellar performances in films including ‘Angrezi Medium’, ‘Good Luck Jerry’, and ‘Bhediya’. He appeared recently in the OTT series, ‘Saas Bahu aur Flamingo’ alongside Dimple Kapadia as the antagonist.
