Aahana Kumra
An India feature film maker, a television and theatre actor who has outshined in a number of roles…meet Aahana Kumra, who does not believe in adhering to the norms. She lives life on her own terms and values her dreams immensely! Here is a piece of conversation with her.
How did your journey begin as an actor?
My journey as an actor began with a workshop at Prithvi Theatre. I enrolled myself during summer time. I underwent this workshop with Neeraj Kabi who is an accomplished actor and theatre director and I loved what I did in the workshop. At the age of 14, I was exposed to masks, chow and different forms of movements of body and the masks, the face, even the voice. I was completely awestruck and I then worked with Prithvi theatre while I was waiting for my admission in a college. I started assisting Sanjana in the meanwhile. I did everything to be a part of Prithvi theatre, whether it was doing backstage chores for a play or selling tickets and helping out for a festival. I did just about everything in my capacity to be close to the theatre!
How much is privacy important to you in this age of social media?
Privacy is of utmost importance to me in the age of social media. If you ever see my social media page it has almost everything to do with my work and me. I hardly speak about my family and friends. They don’t like the fact that people unnecessarily start following them and it’s very important that you guard other people’s privacy. I am a very private person and I think this right should only be given by my family, if they are okay with me talking about them.
