Kay Kay Menon doesn't prepare for roles!

Give him any character, and you can trust Kay Kay Menon to portray it in the best possible manner.
But the versatile actor, who has been a part of films like Black Friday, Life in a...Metro, Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi, Sarkar and Shaurya, doesn’t believe in preparing for a role. “Preparing for roles sounds so academic, doesn’t it? It feels as if you are preparing for an examination! In a creative medium, the preparation is of an entirely different kind, and for me, the ideas flow from the script itself.Unless it is absolutely essential, I don’t believe in spending weeks outside to pick up a few mannerisms.”
Soon, he will be seen in Bhindi Baazaar, where he plays the kingpin of a crime syndicate. “It’s pretty much akin to a game of chess, where every player wants to become the boss. It’s an exciting thriller and I am looking forward to the release.” says Menon.
The actor also shares that cinema is the medium that he enjoys the most. “It’s difficult to explain in words, but I enjoy doing films more than theatre. It helps me in experiencing moments of truth and I can write an entire thesis on my love for the medium! Only, I wish our industry would churn out lesser number of trash films in the coming days, which become runaway hits sometimes! It’s a real tragedy and shame, and that’s why I don’t care about box-office success anymore. That can’t be the benchmark for judging the quality of a film.” he signs off.
