Kanwar Dhillon, who plays Sachin in the popular television show Udne Ki Aasha, believes that adding fresh twists is crucial to keeping viewers hooked. He explains that these narrative changes alter the story's pace, requiring actors to adjust their performances accordingly.
Embracing Spontaneity in Performance
Dhillon points out that the show consistently introduces new twists, crucial moments, and special episodes. These shifts constantly change the energy and rhythm of the performance. As an actor, he feels it is his responsibility to adapt his energy to match the track's demands, whether it involves emotional intensity, high drama, comedy, or even action.
"I'm quite flexible that way, and I enjoy switching gears because spontaneity really works for me," he adds. He emphasizes that sudden turns in the plot make the character both exciting and demanding. Every twist adds a new layer to the story and the character, shaping how the journey progresses.
Exploring Emotional Spaces
These unexpected turns push actors to explore different emotional spaces, making the process challenging yet fulfilling. Dhillon shares his approach to handling sharp narrative shifts. He delves deeply into the script and his character's motivations.
"I know where the character is coming from emotionally, but I still like to leave room for spontaneity," he says. He reveals that he does not rehearse certain actions, dialogues, or body language choices beforehand. Instead, he discovers them organically in front of the camera when the director calls action. This method helps him stay honest and present in the moment.
Adaptability in Fast-Moving Storylines
Dhillon stresses that adaptability is extremely important in a fast-moving storyline. Whether the plot is fast-paced, slow-moving, or static, an actor needs to be flexible. They must switch between emotions, variations, and modulations seamlessly.
The strength of an actor lies in being able to bring out the right emotion at the right time, depending on what the story demands, he notes. He enjoys performing emotional scenes, which have become his forte over the years. These scenes allow him to explore emotional spaces he does not usually access in real life.
Balancing Drama and Comedy
Dhillon has always loved doing drama, but he also truly enjoys comedy. He says comedy is very close to who he is as a person. "I've always been the funny guy in my friend circle, and with Udne Ki Aasha, that side of me has come out completely," he adds. However, he acknowledges that comedy is one of the most challenging genres to perform.
What's Next for Udne Ki Aasha?
Looking ahead, Dhillon promises viewers plenty of twists, turns, and drama. The upcoming track will focus on Sachin Deshmukh's journey, as well as Sachin and Sailee together. It will explore how they move forward in their lives while dealing with the surrounding drama.
"It's going to be engaging, emotional, and entertaining," Kanwar concludes. In related news, Aditi Tripathi from Dil Ko Tumse Pyaar Hua recently enjoyed Raksha Bandhan with Kanwar Dhillon, highlighting their off-screen camaraderie.
