Occupational hazard of Chahatt
While working in films, portraying difficult characters, actors prefer to study it’s characteristics so as to add authenticity to the role. A lot of actors rely on method acting to perfect their performance. But it has side effects too. While playing a dark character, there are instances of actors going into depression. But it’s rare and beautiful and bubbly actress Chahatt (nee Chahatt Khanna) understands that very well.
It so happened that recently Chahatt’s smoking video which she shared on her Instagram, caught eye balls and a few of Chahhat’s fans were riled up to smoking in a few pictures that she shared on her social media. It shocked her fans to see her in this avatar but when the actress has something else to say on this.
When confronted with many queries, Chahatt confessed, “I am preparing for a character for a movie who smokes and its a part of the preparation. I understand the fan’s and the people’s concern but as an actor we have to delve deep down to work on the characters and roles that we play for making them believable for my audience. I don’t smoke but I’m learning this to look like a pro, so that it comes naturally on screen. It’s a huge responsibility though. We have to stay true to our instincts and take on the preparations very seriously. It’s an occupational hazard one could say. So all is well from my side and much love and peace to all.”
Chahatt was last seen in the sanjay Dutt starrer Prasthanam.
