Amala Paul: If you have right mindset, you can make it big on OTT

Actress Amala Paul, who plays the cop Durga in the upcoming Telugu web series “Kudi Yedamaithe”, feels that the best part of the rise of OTT culture is that now there is something for everyone.

The actress, who has made a mark in Tamil and Malayalam films, seemed excited about the boom of digital platforms.

“The best part of OTT is the creative aspects to it, like there are so many beautiful, crazy and wide variety of stories. The scripts I am seeing from 2020 are so different, there is so much uniqueness and growth and everyone is ready to experiment,” Amala tells IANS.

She adds: “The best part is that if you have the right mindset, you can make it bit. It has scope for everyone. I miss going to theatre and I miss having my big popcorn bucket and cold drink — nothing can replace that — but right now I think it is best to go with the flow.”

While most of her films have released in theatres, working on a digital platform doesn’t make thing any different or difficult for the actress.

“Evolution and progressing has been my thing. Change is something important for me and I can adapt beautifully to change. That is how the world evolves. When TV came, radio took a back space. I feel very blessed to be part of the generation where I have seen a VCR, CD, DVD, home theatre, theatre and now its OTT,” says the actress, whose series will steam on Aha Video.

Vidya Balan: ‘Is there fear of loss of stardom? Not at the moment’

Vidya Balan says she does not have the fear of losing the stardom she has gained over the years with her power-packed performances. She admits, though, that it hurts when a film of hers does not do perform well because she is always intensely involved in anything that she does.

“When you are going through a low, it is very tough, especially because it is all very public. When your films don’t work, for example. It affects me badly because I am so intensely involved in my films. I give so much of myself to my films,” Vidya said while speaking to IANS.

The actress says the most painful part of the experience is that she feels “rejected or unloved” when such a thing happens.

“It is heartbreaking, there is no doubt about it and then you feel unloved and rejected. I think that is what is painful. You can’t make sense of it. Only later are you able to look at the situation objectively and say, ‘oh that is why this film did not resonate with people’. When it is fresh, I think it is always very tough,” she said.

However, loss of stardom is a notion that has never bothered her, Vidya added. “Is there fear of loss of stardom? Not at the moment, no,” said the actress, flashing the trademark smile.

Vidya was recently seen in Amit Masurkar’s film “Sherni”, where she played an upright forest officer on the lookout for a man-eating tigress. The film also features Sharat Saxena, Mukul Chadda, Vijay Raaz, Ila Arun and Brijendra Kala, and garnered a positive response upon release. The film released on Amazon Prime Video.

I can obviously not reveal the songs but there are definitely exciting songs from Hindi films. As far as Rahul and Disha are concerned, they both are very bubbly in nature and it’s fun to teach them. Every evening, we have rehearsals.”

“The experience has been positive because both of them are full of life. Rahul is very expressive and Disha is an amazing dancer. I must say they are quick learners. They have been very accommodative and sweet. They don’t have any tantrums and try to understand the options we give them. They are happy to understand as to what we want to teach them and very comfortable and adjusting. They have really liked my choreography and said that it is catchy and cheerful, which is really encouraging,” Sumit adds.

Sumit has been into wedding choreography for a while now and he has also choreographed actor Ruslan Mumtaz’s Sangeet ceremony.
