Sidharth Sagar opens up on how he handed the ups and downs in his life; says, “Frustration, anger, anxiety, and impatience will lead you nowhere but in despair”
Though the entertainment industry has evolved, the difference between actor and star has been on for years. Comedian Sidharth Sagar who is currently seen in The Kapil Sharma Show talked about it during a recent interview and shared “I think stars are made by the audience while actors are born from God’s grace and you would rarely find both together.”
Talking about the cut-throat competition in the industry, he said, “I don’t believe in competition, I see art as divine and infinite. Whether it’s music, dance, or acting, one must have playfulness and joy in whatever they do. Only then it grooms you creatively and naturally, and once you are in tune with the art and the joy every moment is an opportunity.”
When asked if knowing someone in showbiz helps one get through good projects, Sidharth replied,
“I think no one can manage your work with honesty and dedication better than you. Till the time the manager doesn’t understand the vision of an artist, it’s not just about making money or growing an audience on social media, managers should also be creative enough to know what more can be done. And, it can only be done when there is affection, love, and vision for the artist, till then it’s better to manage your work on your own.”
On how one should handle the ups and downs of this profession, Sidharth added, “It all depends on how you see it. As I told you, every moment is an opportunity for me, but there were times when I didn’t work for some time as life was teaching me something beautiful in its own way. So, it was an opportunity to learn. Then there are times when you get an opportunity to earn, to be more creative, to perform for nobody but for your own self. Frustration, anger, anxiety, and impatience will lead you nowhere but in despair.”
