Criticism motivates me to do better, says Rasha
India, Aug. 25 -- In today's unpredictable box office climate, breaking through as a newcomer is no easy feat. Rasha Thadani made her much-anticipated debut this year with Azaad, but the film didn't click commercially. For the actor, who is currently working on her second film Laikey Laikaa, all setbacks are motivation to keep going.
While she's only one film old, Rasha has long been under public scrutiny, thanks to being actor Raveena Tandon's daughter. Has she gotten used to the attention and critique? "That will keep happening more and more with each project. But that's something you take as a source of motivation and as a challenge," she says.
The 20-year-old actor adds, "God forbid tomorrow something doesn't work or I don't do something well; of course I'll be upset. But that is something that I take in my stride and work on so that I become better for the next one. That is what I would want to do in a situation like that, and I hope I do that. As for the criticism, everyone has the right to their own opinions, and of course they should express them. But, for me, criticism makes me feel more motivated to do better."
Rasha believes actors must adapt to the evolving box office landscape, rather than dwell on challenges. "It's our job to evolve with the times. We have to adapt," she asserts, while adding, "We have to make stories that the audience would want to watch in theatres, to convey the messages through those stories with beauty. It's been done for so many generations, so we also have to keep working. I'm 100% sure that we'll see a much better time very soon."
Rasha says her approach to acting has grown since her debut. "My understanding has increased about the ability to express a character. Being Rasha is one person, and the character is another. I try to find similarities and differences between the character and myself, to use to my advantage. My understanding of that process has evolved. And I hope that keeps evolving for the better with everything I do," she shares.
Elaborating on her future career plans, she says, "I want to do everything. I don't know how to say this, but I want to do every genre, every type of movie that's being made. Any offer that comes to me, I want to do it because I just want to work."...
