R Madhavan on 2 most horrifying moments of his career
When asked if he finds OTT liberating due to the absence of box office pressure, R Madhavan said, “Thank God for that. I get nervous by the hour as I get closer to a release. In fact, the two most horrifying moments for me in my career are the first day of shooting—it's getting progressively difficult—and the first day of publicity and release because everyone is watching, and I feel they’re saying, ‘Nope, you’ve lost it; that’s it, game over.’”
He further expressed his gratitude for being able to play lead roles even after 25 years in the industry, saying, “It’s not easy to survive for 25 years in an industry like this, where people become obsolete in 25 months. To still be doing main leads is something I’m very grateful for. It’s the words of encouragement from people that keep me going; otherwise, I would have been a lost soul by now.”
