Suhail Nayyar isn't buying the idea that actors must suffer or work nonstop to succeed. The Udta Teer star has been getting praise for his role, but he believes a good career should leave room for joy and life beyond the screen.
During a chat in Mumbai's Andheri West, Nayyar made his view clear. Work matters, but personal well-being deserves just as much care. An artist need not push through pain at all costs just to prove dedication.
And he had an interesting take on fitness. Some people give diet an 80% share and exercise the other 20%. Nayyar sees each as a full effort, with both needing real care rather than one making up for the other.
Balance, in his view, comes from learning what suits each person. That can change as life moves along, which is why he favors fresh habits and a new approach when old methods stop helping.
Then there's the acting side of things. Nayyar knows that even a great scene may never reach the final film. Editors pick the takes, cuts can change a role, and performers have little say once their part is done.
For him, the smart move is to care deeply about the role without getting stuck on how the final cut turns out. He can give a character his best effort, but he cannot dictate what the audience will see.
That doesn't mean he lacks passion. Nayyar simply tries to keep a level head through praise and setbacks. A good result need not send him into a frenzy, while a bad one need not derail his life. He'd rather learn, adapt, and keep doing the work.
