Actor Babil of "Qala" shares a photo dump with Sri Prasanna Sir at the Acting Shastra workshop. He offered some insightful lessons he had learned from the experience.
As all people play their own characters in real life, Prasanna Sir taught Babil that you improve as an actor as you hone the life you're living and the way you're living it.
It's crucial to strike a balance between sense and craft because sense represents your individuality while craft refers to acting's methods and mechanics.
Little actions like taking care of a plant and connecting that to your humanity can help you. For instance, the amount you decide to "beautify" from your plant
The more of your innate nature that you allow into your acting and the amount of building that you bring into it, the more you improve.
Babil concludes the teachings by pointing out that acting may be acquired through everyday tasks like talking or experiencing emotions.
