Abhishek Bachchan recalls what Ram Gopal Varma told him about award shows: 'How does that validate you?'
Abhishek Bachchan has worked with Ram Gopal Varma in 'Naach', 'Sarkar' and 'Sarkar Raj'. In a recent interview with ETimes, Abhishek recalled something that the director told him, which also gave him an all-new perspective about getting an award. He also spoke about how that made sense, which is why actors shouldn't ever be compared. The 'Guru' actor told ETimes, "Ramu told me something. We were shooting for 'Sarkar'. It happened funnily because there was an award function which I wanted to go to. I was nominated. I think I was nominated for Yuva and I wanted to go but I was shooting. Then, Ramu told me, 'I don't believe in awards and all'. I said why? Because in those days awards were a really big thing. Sadly today it's just fallen off, and it's sad because today we don't have anything genuine that celebrates our work. I said 'I want to go because I have a good chance to win.' He said, 'But why does that validate you?' I said, 'What do you mean?' He asked me, 'Who are the other people nominated for best supporting actor?' I said, 'so and so..'. Abhishek added further, "He told me, 'When you give a school exam everybody writes the same paper and you're judged on that. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Buy Brass Idols - Handmade Brass Statues for Home & Gifting Luxeartisanship Buy Now Undo So, over here all of you do Lallan from 'Yuva' and then we'll see who's better.' I said, 'Wow'. So, for me, I feel, we should say who we prefer as an actor. We can't ever say who's a better actor." Giving an example of art and artists, Abhishek added that while as an audience, we can choose who we prefer to watch, but it's unfair to say 'so and so is a better actor than that one'. He added, "In Indian art, we have two wonderful Indian painters, some of my favourites include Subhash Awchat and Paresh Maity. I love both of their works. Who's the better painter? You can't say it. It's subjective. You can choose who appeals better to you but you can't say this guy is better than the other. You shouldn't say it for actors either. What I'm saying is, it's very unfair and wrong to say that about an artist. Oh, he's better. You can say, 'Oh I prefer him. But you can't say, 'Oh he's better'." Abhishek will be seen next in 'Kaalidhar Laapata', set to release on July 4 on OTT.
