'My job ends after the shooting of a film'

IF you ever have the chance to listen to actor Kumud Mishra speak, it might inspire you to slow down on the hustle. The actor has a long-standing connection with Karnataka that not many are aware of. He studied at the Belgaum Military School and used to visit Bengaluru for the NCC parade. “The foundation of my theatre comes from here,” he shares.

The 49-year-old actor – whose film IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack, a crime-thriller mini-series directed by Anubhav Sinha, was released on August 29th–was recently in Bengaluru for his play at Ranga Shankara.
