Actor Piyush Mishra, who reprises his role in the third season of web series Illegal, on why he chose films over theatre

Money Matters

Cinema is to Piyush Mishra what manual labour is to a masona livelihood. His heart, however, is in theatre.

"Cinema never became my passion. I am not somebody who is mad for cinema," he says, adding, "But, actors should do theatre only when they have earned enough money." Despite the reluctance, Mishra, who has reprised his role in the third season of the courtroom drama Illegal, has a three-decadelong film career with over 40 projects to boast of, with the most popular ones being Maqbool, Rockstar, Gangs of Wasseypur, Gulal, Pink and Tamasha.
