Some actors become an overnight sensation. And there are others who pave their road to success through a gradual process.
Angad Bedi has been active in the industry for quite some time now and has established himself as a dependable actor.
“My father (cricket legend Bishan Singh Bedi) had a heart bypass two years ago with 90 per cent blockage, and then he had a stroke in the brain. It was painful to see him like that because he is my most prized possession.”
How was your experience of taking Ghoomer to the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne?
Exciting! I’ve never been to a film festival before. It’s a great space to be in.
I have seen people going to the Cannes Film Festival, the Toronto Film Festival and the New York Film Festival.
It is such a beautiful, intimate affair, where you go with a film, meet people, they look at your work and talk about your work, and they mingle with you.
This is your second consecutive outing with R Balki after Lust Stories 2. What makes this collaboration special?
I’m very honoured.
The reason I got repeated is probably because I share the same initials with Abhishek and Amitabh sir, who both have previously worked with Balki sir (Chuckles).
Maybe I’m lucky.
I am just very happy that I am working with him once again.
Arjun from Lust Stories and Jeet in Ghoomer are very different from each other.
