Newcomer Girish Kumar, son of producer Kumar Taurani, says rejection by the audience is his greatest fear.
Girish is making his debut with Prabhu Deva's romantic film 'Ramaiya Vastavaiya'. The film is produced by his father Kumar S Taurani, the managing director of Tips Industries.
"For me, the biggest fear as an actor is audience not accepting you. As you put so much effort for a film and entertain the audience, and if the audience does not accept you, it is a sad thing. And if that does not work then I feel something is wrong," Girish told PTI.
The newcomer reveals that he received offers for some films but nothing significant came his way. His father wanted to launch him in the industry under his banner.
Even though Girish comes with a filmi background, he too had to undergo screen test like any other actor and take training before he bagged a film.
"The journey till now was not easy. I had an opportunity but I had to work for it, as I had to prove it to people that I was worth being given an opportunity. I took training, did screen test etc," he said.
As a part of his learning experience, Girish went on film sets of 'Race', 'Prince' and others to understand things - observe actors and see how they perform and understand the process of filmmaking.
