A million dollar line : Parents are not against your passion, although they don't wanna see you as a poor 🔥❤️

[raunaqsapra]

You can see he keeps on fiddling constantly - shows his anxiety despite being such a terrific actor. Amazing stuff.

[SudhaSingh-tgws]

Jaane jaan me Teacher ki acting, , , world ka best

[mylifeonearth]

i swear on god.... i have seen hundreds of actors interviews. there's no one as honest and genuine like him, about everything. with that experience gives such motivating lesson. i start liking him as an good actor. now im loving him, for no nonsense attitude and being truth to himself . even after such hits.

[sharma-vqbq]

Jaideep Ahlawat & Saurabh Sachdeva are so convincing actor in any role...great...

[Gxzxmn]

On @Jaideep - personally his performance in Paatal Lok should have gotten him an oscar or a golden globe nod. It was the type of performance that I have never seen done before. And ofcourse any work that Jaideep does, he leaves you wowed. His poker expression in the recently released Jaane Jaan was legendary. On @Saurabh - what an underrated powerhouse. Hope he gets some starring roles cuz he has some serious acting chops himself. He has such a unique international (non bollywood) face, with a natural charisma and the trippiest eyes. Both are very inspiring!

Jaideep bhai is a treasure trove of wisdom... And that that no nonsense Haryanvi Wit. 🔥

[serpenteve]

1. It's ok to accept and embrace the negative emotions sometimes (it's ok to be vulnerable)
2. Be comfortable with disappointing people (don't live to please people)
3. Don't try to imitate something (actor), be something
4. Keep polishing your prism (skills), someday light will strike
5. Thought governs the body. Live that thought.
6. Don't get used to complaining about the world in your free time. Use it to focus on your mind and muscles
7. The art of reading has lost. So Read
8. Meet people. Engage with good people
9. The world is designed to suck our happiness and we give the permission to do so. Do not approve
10. Being Successful is a process. Keep polishing your prism (skills)
11. Be present. Enjoy the small things in life
12. Its okay being not understood
13. Don't be rigid with your ways. Adapt to survive through the situation
14. Parents don't give a shit about how famous you are
15. Parents are never against your choices, they just want to see you succeed in traditional ways which they have seen work for others
16. Successful people are the most genuine (aware) and normal (no pomp and show) people you may see. Always good at what they do
17. Live the process not the output. Process happens in present and you can do everything in present
18. Be happy with the life you have. LIVE first
19.

awesome interview - thanks Mr.Ahlawat/ Mr.Sachdeva - notes
03:25 Reference - the need for reference in choosing a career - at a young age (for a lifelong work)
06:40 father (a teacher) never said no to FTII - "if he fails will do farming"
08:00 FTII taught that being an actor is a lifestyle(24/7 work) - it's a much bigger than that what he had imagined - made him a student of films
16:30 it's ok to be vulnerable/afraid
19:24 neither listening - nor connecting to what's happening
20:00 you are lucky if you are able to be part of 5% good work that happened in the industry in a particular year
20:43 *being an actor is like being a prism - when lights passes thru at a certain angle - rainbow is formed - neither the light nor the rainbow is that of the actor - prism has to be clean and be at the right angle*
24:31 do something (read, exercise) - when you don't have work, don't get into the trap of blaming the world (nepotism) but do something positive
26:57 *difference between successful and famous*
28:00 doesn't go to vanity van during breaks - just observes what's happening all around
28:40 student of cinema
29:50 reads good script - till the time the script starts talking to him and tells him about itself - your character will tell you - let it grow on you
40:00 reference journey as a bank of emotions - actors from smaller towns have lot of references
40:35 character apni duniya batayega - in a good script
44:00 good actors are always alive/happy/aware
45:00 learn your lines - al pacino's advise
50:40 acting as survival / peace of mind, was able to live peacefully when he started acting in plays, sense of calm
53:18 sabkee zindagi ek jaisee nahi hogi
54:37 yaa to kaam acha ho, yaa daam - either the work is good or the money is good
58:00 joker has to be convinced about himself - that what he's doing is right - only then he can mesmerize the audience - there are no rights or wrong about a character
01:00:00 everyone has his/her own definition of failure - how i couldn't crack SSB is my regret(failure)
01:11:50 this journey won't stop - the learning of current project has to be applied in the next
01:16:49 only 5 worthwhile projects in a year - and if u are lucky you will be able to be part of them
01:17:14 cheque par dhyaan do !
01:21:41 align yourself once a day - focus on breathing
