“All dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them”, Anshuman justifies this quote by Walt Disney, by dreaming of being extraordinary. This Kanpur boy crawled his way into the industry of drama and dreams. Actor Anshuman Malhotra wanted to be exceptional and tried the unconventional way to grab the right opportunities.

Being blessed with a charming personality, he is a powerhouse of talent. Anshuman has an engaging back story of becoming an actor. His father was a musician, and the family always wanted him to join the army. But destiny had other plans, and he entered Bollywood by debuting in Vishal Bhardwaj’s blockbuster “Haider” in the year 2014.

Although he struggled in the early days of his career, he and his family moved to Mumbai after completing his schooling. Initially, his idea of being an actor was not supported by the family, and he had to live with friends during the initial phase of his career. Unlike other actors and actresses, he did not go to acting school. Anshuman learned by reading and observing other actors’ work. He scoured Google for auditions in Mumbai and started trying his luck in acting without expecting a callback. However, he believes that acting is not an easy task and had his share of unpleasant experiences in the industry.Initially, he was hesitant in front of cameras, and he would run away from the auditions. He overcame this hurdle of fear by practising for long hours. He is a self-taught actor and took on himself to sharpen his skills. He would watch a lot of Youtube videos and follow the career of famous film stars to learn every aspect of acting. He would rehearse the audition scripts in a different style because he believes that a good actor is the one who can perform a script in ten different ways.

After a while, Anshuman tried his luck for the audition of the movie “Haider”. Luck favoured him, and he was cast as young Shahid Kapoor in the film. It was his debut movie, and after that, he was poured with opportunities from shoots of top brands. Some of his famous work includes MTV Warrior High, Yeh Hai Aashiqui, Class of 2017, Hum Chaar, The Final Call, Fuh se Fantasy, Love Sleep Repeat, etc.

During his time in the film industry, Anshuman thinks that cinema has evolved a lot with time. He recalls the days when a movie or a TV series was all about the lead actor and actresses. Now it’s the story that people love, and all the actors are the plot of the big story. He believes that one needs to diversify with time and adapt whatever comes in mind. Anshuman has friends outside the industry, and he believes that his friends and family have moulded him in the right way.

Besides, he feels blessed with all the struggle and hard work that he had to undergo because that has shaped him into the person he is now. Anshuman believes in trying everything in life. Apart from the roles he had been offered, he would love to try a dark part.

His secret mantra for success was simple yet very thoughtful,
“Learning is the key to success so never hesitate to learn, because you improve by learning!”
