R Madhavan, a celebrated actor in the Indian film industry, has recently spoken out about the significant anxiety he experiences during film shoots. The star, who last appeared in ‘De De Pyaar De 2,’ detailed how this nervousness escalates with each new film he joins. He confessed to a recurring fear that his colleagues and assistants might be privately concluding that his acting prime is over.
In a candid conversation, Madhavan articulated his internal monologue: ‘I feel like even my assistants are watching me and thinking, ‘It’s time to work with someone else now, he doesn’t know anything.’ That fear inside me keeps growing with every film.’ He elaborated on the initial moments on set, feeling a palpable sense of dread that prompts thoughts like, ‘It’s over, Maddy is finished,’ and ‘Now he doesn’t know how to act.’ This self-doubt, he stated, has become a persistent companion on his professional journey.
Madhavan’s extensive filmography boasts critically acclaimed works and popular blockbusters. Undeterred by his anxieties, he is actively engaged in future ventures, including the film ‘Dhurandhar’ and the Netflix series ‘Legacy.’ His openness about these challenges offers a glimpse into the psychological landscape of actors navigating the demands of the industry.
