Positives from Negatives
1st Person – It will be fun tonight watching the “Talk Show with Sid”.
2nd Person – Yes obviously. Why not? As it is the 100th episode. There should be something special tonight.
……………..
Host – Hello everyone. Welcome to the 100th episode of Goenka Motors presents “Talk Show with Sid”. I am your host Siddharth Verma. As we all know that tonight we are having our 100th episode, so obviously there will be something exceptional tonight. If you are thinking this, you are correct. Because today we have in our mist, the one who has won everyone’s heart with his extraordinary acting skills, our very own Rishav Kundra, who is better known as RK. Welcome RK to our show.
Rishav – Thank You for inviting me here. It is a different feeling altogether over here.
Host – RK, tell us about your upcoming movies. I heard you are working on few movies.
RK – Yes, I have been working on a couple of movies. The shootings are about to get over and I hope the movies will arrive in the cinema halls soon.
Host – What are your plans about this New Year celebration.
RK – I have planned to celebrate this new year with my family and few of my friends. I hope it will be fun on that day.
Host – So RK, what was the tale behind you becoming such a popular actor.
RK – Firstly during my childhood, I thought I would become something either in educational field or in sports field. You know, like an engineer or a cricketer or something like that. When I was of 10 years, I was asked to play a lead role in a school play, and I was appreciated for my role. I celebrated for a few moments but again back to studies. Then when I was of around 12 years old, came the famous COVID-19 pandemic.
<
strong>Host – Yes, that was so disastrous. We all were locked in our homes.
RK – Yes, but you know, every problem brings with it an opportunity. And that time was an opportunity to discover a new talent, a new you. And during that time, you were not allowed to go out of the house, so where will you play. So, my playing stopped. The classes were conducted online for 3-4 hours. Because of that, my plenty of time got wasted. Then, I decided that during this lockdown, I will do something new. And then by watching some movies, I decided to improve my theatre skills. After that during the whole lockdown I told my sister to sit in front of me and judge me. And day by day my skills improved. Then after the lockdown, I started participating in many competitions involving acting and theatre. But studied too. After I passed the IIT exams, I came to IIT Mumbai. Here looking at so many of my Drama and Theatre certificates, director and producer Mr. AK Sharma decided to cast me in the film.
Host – Yes, and your fist movie went a big hit and then it was a never looking back career. Right?
RK – Yes.
Host – Let me tell you gentlemen, none of RK’s movie has collected less than 100 crores on box office. In other words, RK has never given a flop movie. Isn’t that interesting.
RK – Is that true? I never thought about this.
………………….
Through the story I was only liking to convey this message that this lockdown was a great time for everyone to discover a New You. Take out positives from the negatives. And the time is still not over. Just imagine if RK did not did something new, then how would have he become so successful. Though this is a fictional story, but still this story, I guess, would motivate the ones who haven’t discovered a New You in the best time you ever can.
