R Madhavan opens up about experiencing anxiety on film sets
In a conversation with Mirchi Plus, the Shaitaan actor revealed, “Aaj kal na main jabhi set par jaata hoon, mujhe pehle se bohot zyada darr lagta hai, mujhe na first day jab aap set par jao, toh sab dekh kar ye bol rahe hai ki ‘hogaya, Maddy khatam’, ‘aab isko acting nahi aati’. It’s getting worse by the film, mujhe lagta hau ki mere assistants dekh rahe hai, aur keh rahe hai ‘ki aab time hogaya hai kisi aur ko join karne ka, isko kuch aata nahi hai.’ Mera woh jo khauf hai na woh har film mein badhta jata hai (Nowadays, whenever I go on set, I feel a lot more scared than before. On the first day when you reach the set, it feels like everyone is looking at me and saying, ‘It’s over, Maddy is finished,’ ‘Now he doesn’t know how to act.’ It’s getting worse with every film. 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).”
