‘We actors exist because of our fans’, says actor Savi Thakur
“Guddan – Tumse Na Ho Payega” actor Savi Thakur believes that it’s the love of the fans that keeps an actor going. He feels that the fans make or break an actor and said, “We actors exist because of our fans, all we want is love from the people and that’s what we work for.”
“I think it’s our responsibility to entertain them in a better way to stay in their hearts forever and not to do something that hurts them,” he added.
The young actor also shared that he is quite shy and reserved in his real life and doesn’t know how to react when fans approach him. He said, “There are so many times where I got confused when some fans approached me. I get blank in such situations like what to say and what to do now. I won’t say I went overboard to please anyone, but there was a group that came to see our shoot when I was doing ‘Porus’ and they wanted to have some clicks with me, but they were too shy to ask, then I went to them and asked ‘Photo chahiye?’ They were like ‘yes’. It was a happy moment for me.”
However, he revealed that he has no problems getting pics clicked with his fans. “I am very comfortable with selfies or pics. All they want is just a picture with you, so I don’t think we should have a problem with that. They want it because they love you and that’s what we need,” Savi said.
The “Jamai Raja” actor also confessed that fans ask him for his address so that they can send some gifts, but he refrains from doing so. “There are many fans who message me on social media that they want to send some gifts, and ask for my address, but I never give them because I don’t want any gifts from anyone. Their love is all that I need,” he said.
Savi also strongly reacted to fans who write a celeb’s name in blood or get their names inked, and said, “I think fans should not hurt themselves to prove their love for us. Like if someone will say that he or she is my fan, then I’ll believe it. I don’t need any proof for that, so guys please don’t hurt yourself for me. All my fans are equal for me, there is no number one or two or three.”
Sharing his bit on how social media influences fans and followers, he said that a public figure or a celebrity should be careful before posting anything. “I think we should not post or say something which hurts our fans or any individual, it’s our responsibility to love them like they love us and I love all my fans. I wish that you all stay safe and happy,” Savi signed off.
