Young actor Vasu Bose had his first Y taste of acting during his junior school days in New Delhi, but it was at Kirori Mal College that his passion truly blossomed. By his third year, Vasu knew acting was his true calling. Presently in Los Angeles, where he is completing a project, Vasu graduated from 'Stella Adler Studio of Acting, after completing the threeyear professional conservatory programme. As he explores opportunities on foreign shores, he is auditioning for projects back home in the Bollywood and Malayalam film industry. In fact, the Malayalam industry gave him his debut show, 'Eyes' on OTT.

Up next, he will be seen in a Bollywood biggie directed by Priyadarshan.

"My dreams are big and I am confident I will achieve them," he said, with determination in his voice. Eager for strong scripts, Vasu has his sights set on working in South Indian cinema, Bollywood and Hollywood.

The young, passionate actor speaks to ‘Millennium Post’ on college days, movies and more:

When did you first realise acting was your calling?

It’s difficult to pinpoint the exact moment when my passion for acting began, but I can confidently say that I was never a shy child. I was fortunate to have a wonderful group of friends from a young age. This, coupled with my move from Trivandrum, a modest town at the time, to the bustling metropolises of Mumbai and Delhi, pushed me out of my comfort zone and forced me to be more social. The idea of stepping outside my comfort zone was instilled in me by my dear uncle Sassy, an incredible painter, sculptor and photographer to whom I owe much of my inclination towards the creative arts. These factors culminated in my enjoyment of the stage.
