MUMBAI: Veteran actor Anupam Kher is someone who believes in breaking the stereotype. He does not believe in fitting into a mould set by society to make itself comfortable with mediocrity.
From playing a 65-year-old man at just 28 to trying his hand in Hollywood, to writing books on life and not acting, Kher has definitely made some unconventional choices along the way.
Reflecting on his unique journey, the 'Tanvi the Great' maker penned, "We always accept the way world wants us to be and live! They will try to pull you down to be able to deal with their mediocrity! It makes them feel comfortable! Strangely I have always tried to break that mould! Whether playing a 65year old man when I was just 28 in my first film #Saaransh! Or breaking the myth of type casing in Hindi cinema! Or acting in English language films even though I am from Hindi medium background! Or writing books on life and not on acting! And these choices have nothing to do with being rich or poor. It is about thinking of yourself as different but no less (sic)."
