A chiseled face, six pack abs and a dynamic personality are things which would make you notice this man (yes ladies, for all the right reasons!). Debuting in Karle Pyaar Karle in 2014, SHIV DARSHAN was launched by his father, renowned producer Suneel Darshan. Although the film didn’t have a great box office reception, this man has a point to prove. Coming back on the silver screen after a hiatus of three years actor Shiv Darshan is back with Ek Haseena Thi Ek Deewana Tha. Yasasvi Mehta catches up with him to find out more about his life, love, and films. Read on…
You’re being re-launched in Ek Haseena Thi, Ek Deewana Tha. Do you think this movie will get you where you see yourself?
Firstly, I would like to ask you, how many people get the opportunity to do a movie? And how many people actually do it? So all I want to do is enjoy the journey and keep working rather than thinking about the end result. I believe thinking about the end result spoils the journey.
But having said that, I definitely want to present my work in a way which people would appreciate.
You are from a filmi background. You debuted under your fathers father’s production house. Your film didn’t quite make it on the box-office. How difficult was it for you to cope?
I wouldn’t say it was a difficult time. I want my movies to do well but I don’t focus too much on the end results. And I personally believe that sometimes you need to fall to fly high. I admit that I had a shaky start. But I am going to be flying high pretty soon! I take inspirations from Mr Bachchan and Ranbir Kapoor who also had a shaky start, and work optimistically.
Since you’re from a filmi background, it was easy for you to get into the industry. What is your take on nepotism?
You may get your first break, but you need to prove yourself eventually. I feel blessed to be born in a filmi family. But I feel we all have our struggles. Eventually, it’s your work that’s going to take you places.
Does it work?
