Actor Mohammad Samad has been a part of several critically acclaimed popular films at a really young age. He has starred in films like 'Gattu', 'Tumbbad' and 'Haramkhor' but he is best known for playing Sushant Singh Rajput's teenage son in the film 'Chhichhore'. In a recent interview, Samad talked about his experience of working with the late actor and about what made him take up acting.
About Sushant, the youngster said, I had a lovely experience. He used to share his problems with us on the sets and also solve our problems. He has taken me to his house for parties many times. He used to treat me like his kid off-screen too. During the ICU scene in ‘Chhichhore’, one of my eyes used to be closed and there were many pipes attached to my body, so he used to make sure I was comfortable. He was the one who used to make energy drinks for me. He was very sweet and I really miss him.
About his initial journey as an actor, Samad said, I started doing films because it was just fun for me. I never really thought much about it as a career. I actually started enjoying being an actor when I was shooting for ‘Tumbbad’, for which I had taken a leave of four months from school. I also got an opportunity to learn a lot from Anand Gandhi sir; he gave me tips to polish my acting skills. I was really amused when I started exploring further. I started getting opportunities and kept on taking them up.
