Acting, it is said, comes naturally. But the question is, how does one go about it?
Acting trainer Kishore Namit Kapoor knows all the answers. His new book, which claims to be the 'first authentic book on acting in English and Hindi' promises to polish those rough edges and guide an aspirant to achieve his goal of becoming an actor.
Kapoor's student and Koi… Mil Gaya sensation Hrithik Roshan released the book called, For The Actor - You Are the Instrument, You Are the Player, at Mumbai's The Classique Club.
Teacher of stars like Roshan Jr, Vivek Oberoi, Akshaye Khanna, Kareena Kapoor and Mahima Chaudhry, Kapoor is a Film and Television Institute of India graduate from Pune. He says, "It's not a book. It's my mission statement. I wanted to share my learning's with hundreds and thousands of aspiring actors. Many actors have dreams but no guidance. This book will prove beneficial to such aspirants."
A nostalgic Hrithik Roshan said, "It's been a long journey since my classes in 1997-98 to the cover of this book. Kishore Sir's classes helped me find myself. I don't think I could have understood myself or understood my shortcomings and limitations without his insights into my mind. It [the book] is going to be a prized possession for anyone who is an actor."
