I've been auditioning for quite some time now. I know how big a struggle it is. Made a couple of good friends during this struggle. Its been sweet and sour both. well, I guess that's coz my life is in a soup. lol. jokes apart. I see many of my co-strugglers as you may call it getting various projects and i am still doing short films and theatre.
one day I was out with my friends and got a call from an unknown number. One truth about actors- Being an aspiring actor, each unknown number/call is like super duper important for you and you feel OMG some casting director must be calling me. hehe. that's true. anyway, so it wasn't something new. I have received many such calls before saying you've been shortlisted blah blah..but this one was different.
His name was Kosti and he is like I am a casting director for a new show on Disney and I've seen your audition and would want to cast you as one of the important characters in one of the episodes. Would you be interested. I couldn't believe that I was actually selected because of some of my previous auditions, which means no auditions go waste. I am delighted when he said we are shooting in a couple of days.
I was super excited during the first day of the shoot. the feeling of entering the sets is similar to the feeling of being on stage. well, almost the same. everyone around was like yes sir. come sir. sit sir.
Then the costume guys come in, make up, spot boys, chai-coffee and finally the A.D - with the script...it took me no time to rehearse and the worst part is when you are ready with lines but having to wait till your shot is ready. Since it was for Disney, I had to do a lot of over the top acting which naturally comes to me :p.
The first day ended well and we shot about 2 scenes..and got to know that I will be having 2-3 more days of shoot. I was delighted and couldn't wait for the episode to go on air.
Well, the show is called - The Suite Life of Karan and Kabir and airs on Disney every Sunday at 10am. It went on air recently and I somehow happen to miss the episode. I was desperately waiting for that moment. but no regrets, i finally happen to see somebody having to uploaded my episode on you tube and was overjoyed.
Do watch this episode and give me your feedback! thanks...
