Barun Sobti Rejects Idea of Mistakes, Embraces Learning from Choices
Barun Sobti: Life About Right/Wrong Choices, Not Mistakes

Barun Sobti's Philosophical Take on Life Choices and Learning

Popular actor Barun Sobti has shared a thought-provoking perspective on personal growth, revealing that he does not believe in the conventional idea of mistakes. In a recent interview, the actor emphasized that life is fundamentally about recognizing whether a choice was right or wrong and learning from that realization.

Moving Beyond the Concept of Mistakes

When asked about how he deals with errors or missteps, Barun responded with a nuanced view. "I don't believe in mistakes," he told IANS. "What I would say is that even if you really want to mention a mistake, then you need to say that either you did the right thing or the wrong thing. So there is something wrong."

He elaborated that understanding when one has made a wrong choice is the beginning of moving toward the right path. "Realising that you've done that is the inception of you going on the right path," Barun explained. He advised against being overly harsh on oneself, highlighting the importance of learning to deal with such situations constructively.

Insights from Kohrra Season 2

This philosophy resonates with his role in the upcoming Netflix series, Kohrra Season 2, where he reprises his character as assistant sub-inspector of police Amarpal Jasjit Garundi. The show delves into a murder mystery while exploring themes of broken relationships and moral fatigue.

Barun shared that working on the series has deepened his understanding of human fragility. "Individually, I always wanted to develop into a human being who was a part of the medium as a whole. And I think I've just stepped further into that with this," he said.

Personal Growth and Learning from Others

Reflecting on his own journey, Barun acknowledged areas for improvement, such as his writing skills, and praised co-star Sudeep for his expertise. "I was also thinking about how bad I am when it comes to writing, and how good Sudeep is, you know, with the whole uncovering process—how you read something but execute something else. Of course, because it's only in your mind. So I was trying to learn on the side," he added.

This approach underscores his belief in continuous learning and adaptation, rather than dwelling on perceived mistakes. By focusing on the distinction between right and wrong choices, Barun encourages a mindset that fosters resilience and personal development.
