'K' queen is responsible for starting several soaps and changing the
face of Indian Television to a large extent.
As her production house finally launches her hyped show 'Kasturi'
on Star Plus, one expects a lot from it. The freshly started show has
been well received by the audiences. Playing Kasturi's chacha is the
very experienced and professional,
Raja Sevak.
As we catch up with the star, he answers questions about the story
of the show, his career, his future plans and much more! So read on for
the special interview!
Tell us about your character in Kasturi
I am
playing Kasturi’s Chacha.. My character has a grey shade, my side of
the family is on the grey side, they have a conflict with kasturi’s
family. We are trying to disrupt their life, it’s the typical family
situation like every Indian joint family.
What about your character and how does your character fit in the whole story track? Well,
my character is still developing, the serial has just started, and yet
only the main characters are developing and rest of us are still being
introduced, and it will take a while till everything is stabilized. As
far as relating to the character is concerned, well, being an actor, I
have to relate to him. I myself need to bring in the grey side of mine
to play this character. I might not like what my character is doing but
as an actor its my responsibility.
What is your ultimate goal as an actor?
There
can never be an ultimate goal as an actor. But my ultimate goal is to
be a film maker. I have a film ready for production and others are
still in the making. With a little more experience as an actor, I’ll
try directing.
We’ve heard that you are a acting professor? Is that true?
- Yes, I am teaching Acting at Roshan Taneja’s institute.
What does it mean to be creatively satisfied to you, and have you achieved it so far?
One
has to try very hard to be creatively satisfied. When I play a
character, I try to get as much satisfaction as I can playing the
character. it’s a learning process at the end of the day. I guess, at
times you aren’t satisfied with what you’re doing, but then you start
experimenting with your character. I’ve done Astitva, Saath Phere, K.
Street and I’ve done a good variety of roles. I’ve learned a lot as an
actor playing that role.
What’s your dream role?
Something like James Bond.
How is the story going to evolve now with you?
It all depends on the TRP. Story on television keeps changing.
What next?
I’m doing an English play as of now. We are performing in Chennai, there is some theater festival over there.
Well with professional attitude like that and lots of
determination, we are sure that Raja will be able to achieve all his
goals and dreams. All the best to this talented star on behalf of
India-Forums!
