Everyone remembers Sushant Divgikar as the former Bigg Boss contestant who left an impact on the audience with his exquisite personality. But there is so much more about him than just being a well-known celebrity that will leave you surprised. He is a national-level swimming champion, and he was the first-ever contestant from India to win the Mr. Gay World pageant.
Certainly, these accomplishments weren’t served to him just like that, and he had to come a long way with his gender-fluid persona. Success always comes with a hefty price, but Sushant was determined to create a difference by being honest with his creations. Aside from a strong will, he also believes in maintaining a positive attitude towards failures because different people have a different take on professional setbacks. Acceptance plays a vital role in an artist’s life, whether it’s about criticism or the personality itself.
Interaction with Music & Arts during Academic Years
Sushant got familiar with dancing, music, and various other forms of arts while he was a student. He explains that a student can be a marvelous performer in artistic activities and gain good marks simultaneously. Although his schooling life never allowed him to refine himself as a performer, he managed to get that breakthrough experience in college. Sushant has always been an all-rounder and his record as a national-level champion in swimming is vivid proof of his talent. During his college years, he groomed himself as a performer and explored the criteria of art where he can do his best. It was the time when he came across a lot of renowned names in the entertainment industry while grabbing some of the most significant opportunities of his career.
A surrounding of Positive People
Sushant claims that he is fortunate to have the most amazing parents in the world as they have loved him and supported him in all his decisions. He suggests that being surrounded by positive people is a whole other kind of luxury, especially when you are always on the hunt for creating a new and fresh form of art. He also reminisces about his experience as a participant in the Mr. Gay World where he grabbed 5 subtitles for India and as a contestant in Bigg Boss where he made a lot of friends like RJ Pritam and Model Diandra Soares.
House of Kohinoor for the Shining Talents of India
Sushant is looking forward to his planning on building a creative haven for budding talents. He vaguely remembers the time of his transformation when he had to confront the struggles of being different in a patriarchal society. He wants to build a place where people are open to their actual feelings and ready to explore the raw essence of art.
House of Kohinoor will help new artists improvise as a performer and as a person, and some deserving artists will also receive financial support from this initiation. Sushant doesn’t want other people to go through the negative factors that he faced during his transition.
He assures that authenticity is the need of the hour, and you don’t need to be pretentious to get accepted in society. Always appreciate the changes around you and acknowledge the efforts of those who love you no matter what.
