“Films usually work through word-of-mouth while other aspects come secondary. And if, any particular person or groups make up their mind not to watch a certain film ultimately it does influence the film. Today, we all fail to understand the reasons behind the anger against the films. Mei toh bahut chota sa artiste hu…who am I to judge! But just like any other profession, we all put in lot of blood and sweat to make a project. Aur jab mehnat rang na laye toh bura lagta hai,” he says.

The Laxmii and The Shaukeens actor adds, “At the end of the day, none can predict the audiences’ mood at any given point of time. They can like a certain film and the reasons stay unknown. Similarly, it stands for disliking a project.”

The UPite, says there is an equal apprehension and excitement when a big project hits the theatre.

“I was offered to join the cast in 2018 and since then I was really excited to work with such a bigger banner and cast. A lot of hard work on appearance, lingo and body language had to be put in by all of us. And finally, when the film got to hit the theatre, it was like a dream — specially after Covid lockdowns.”

Next, Kaushik will be seen in web series Kathmandu Connec-tion-2 and Rang De Tu Mohe.
