- IndiaGlitz, [Friday,November 18 2022]
A well established star of the OTT medium, actor Naveen Kasturia recently got the opportunity to work alongside Abhishek Bachchan in the season 2 of 'Breathe: Into The Shadows'. Although this was his first time working with Abhishek, Naveen shares that the former was quite warm and friendly offscreen and that camaraderie showed up on camera as well. Naveen also talked about how quickly and easily Abhishek gelled up with him.
The actor told IANS, Most of my scenes are with Abhishek, at least 90% of them. Initially, I was very nervous, even during the reading sessions, I asked Mayank (Sharma) about Abhishek and Amit (Sadh), as I had always seen them on screen, but this was the first time I was working with them. But as we started working together, things got better and fell in place.”
Speaking about sharing screen with junior Bachchan, Naveen said, I think Abhishek is a very giving actor, he gives you your space, and off camera he is very warm and friendly. From the very beginning of the shooting, he started talking to me, and so we did not need an icebreaker as such. Since our off-screen camaraderie was good, it reflected on screen, and that helped me a lot. I cannot define my experience and bond with Abhishek in words, but I can only say he just made me very comfortable.
Recalling a particularly interesting anecdote, Naveen said, There was a time when Abhishek called my mom when we were shooting in Lajpat Nagar and complained that we did not invite him home for lunch. So that’s the level of comfort and fun we share.
