I find the allure of each medium distinct and compelling: Vishal Sudarshanwar

MUMBAI: Yodha actor Vishal Sudarshanwar says, as an actor and an artist, he doesn’t want to restrict himself to one medium. He wants to explore every medium of performing arts, be it theatre, OTT, or films.

“I find the allure of each medium distinct and compelling in its own way. While theater offers the immediate connection and intimacy of live performance, OTT platforms provide a vast and diverse landscape for storytelling, and films offer the grandeur and cinematic experience of the big screen,” he said.

“Ultimately, my attraction to a particular medium depends on the project, the character, and the creative vision behind it. Each medium offers its own unique opportunities for artistic expression and exploration, and I am grateful for the chance to work across them all,” he added.

He also believes that as an actor, one gives their heart and soul to a project they are working on, and getting appreciated and applauded for it definitely acts as encouragement.

“Appreciation of my craft is indeed important to me. As an actor, I pour my heart and soul into every role, striving to bring authenticity, depth, and nuance to my performances. When audiences connect with my work and respond positively to it, it is incredibly gratifying and reaffirms my passion for storytelling,” he said.

“However, even in the absence of external validation, I find fulfillment in the process of creation itself—the opportunity to inhabit diverse characters, explore complex emotions, and contribute to the rich tapestry of human experiences through my art,” he added.

He concluded by saying that cinema is a powerful medium that has the ability to entertain, inspire, and provoke thought. “As an actor and a writer, I am deeply passionate about my craft and committed to honing my skills, pushing boundaries, and telling meaningful stories that resonate with audiences. Whether on stage, on page, on screen, or through the lens of a camera, I believe in the transformative power of storytelling and the importance of fostering empathy, connection, and understanding in our increasingly complex world,” he ended.
