The transformation of Amit Sadh: "An actor's darkness becomes his light"

Amit Sadh is one of those actors you remember even when they’re quiet. There’s an intensity to him that keeps you rooted to the screen.

You can see his character going through an inner turmoil. And he has done it time after time in both good and bad films. His projects might not always make a noise at the box office but the actor can always be counted on to give his best everytime. He was last seen in web series like Breathe, Jeet Ki Zid and Avrodh and would soon be seen in a rom-com called Sukhee, where he’s costarring with Shilpa Shetty Kundra. He’s also shooting for a gritty thriller, where he’s reportedly playing an encounter specialist. Amit says he’s always been open to good roles and sees himself being part of the industry for the next 50 years or so. “I’m here for the long haul. Koi jaldi nahi hai. I’m in no hurry…”

What’s your current state of mind?

After many, many years, or I can say since I was born, I am in the best state of mind. There’s complete peace, complete happiness, and I am very happy!
