Both in Jaya and Sanai, I have very different roles and that’s what keeps me challenged as an actor always.”
But what made him decide on a film like Prem Rog that bombed at the BO? “I admit that Prem Rog didn’t do too well but I will never regret my decision to act in the film. When the final product turns out to be different from what you were told it would be, you are in a state of flux. Moreover when the film has an ‘A’ tag attached to it, the director has to work on it aesthetically. After all, it’s meant for public viewing, no one makes a film just for himself.”But when it comes to his avid interest in dubbing, Sudip rues about its fate in the industry. “Normally, the dubbing artist is supposed to receive 50 per cent of what the artist gets but here it boils down to just a lot of bargaining. I’m very interested in dubbing and the challenge is greater because I’m not playing myself,” he signs off.
