Gulshan Devaiah Reveals ‘Well-Wishers’ Suggested Used BMW for Image
Gulshan Devaiah Talks Fame and Authenticity
Gulshan Devaiah, known for his impactful performances, recently discussed his career and perspectives in an interview. While he has been a consistent presence in films, his filmography is not extensive. However, with the success of Kantara Chapter 1, which has received both financial success and critical acclaim, he reflects on navigating fame and staying true to oneself.
Authenticity on Social Media
In today’s world, where many actors curate perfect images online, Gulshan chooses a different path. He remains genuine, engaging openly with his audience, friends, and even critics. He expresses, "I want to be fun and myself, like I am in this conversation. The jokes and my true personality should shine through on social media."
He admits that he faced challenges while establishing his online presence. "I’ve realized that sometimes I might say things I shouldn’t have. It’s all a learning process; no one is perfect," he elaborates.
Navigating Image Expectations
Despite being labeled an underrated actor, Gulshan values the compliments and advice from those around him. He recalls a moment when someone suggested he should enhance his image by purchasing a luxury vehicle, like a second-hand BMW. "From their viewpoint, it makes sense; they understand how industry perceptions work. But I prioritize staying authentic. I refuse to change just to please others," he states.
Kantara Chapter 1, directed by Rishab Shetty, showcases Gulshan alongside notable actors such as Rukmini Vasanth. As this film continues to perform remarkably in theaters, it marks an essential point in his career, reinforcing his commitment to authenticity and genuine connections in both his personal and professional life.
