Rings Of Power Actors on new show, Priyanka Chopra, Padmaavat | WION Originals

I I see from your face that there's that you have watched the oh I love it I love I mean last one was it p m i mean I love Bollywood as well so when I do Long Haul flights I try to watch at least one but I just worked with prianka ch as well and that was fantastic and I love [Music] rman I think I first want to know from both of you I know this is your first web series if I'm not wrong uh is there any pressure when you're associated with something so historical and you know there's so much of fan following all over the world is there any pressure as actors I mean we put pressure on ourselves just as who we are I feel like we I don't want to speak for you but I feel like we both hold very high standards of ourselves and we we want to work hard and and no matter what the franchise is and no matter what the project is we're going to give out Absolut all and I think that in that case the pressure doesn't matter because we are going to give 100% And we want to give whoever the audience is the absolute best of us um said however I you know what works is uh at least works for me is that I'm a fan myself so I come with that embedded pressure and I come I I also wanted a lot of us are fans of of the the franchise so so we're operating also as fans so that we're putting um all all of our energy all of our Artistry all our love to make something that would make us proud as well so that kind of took care of itself in that sense you you do have to make an exercise to I don't know how it is in your own profession to kind of shut the voices down do your thing be authentic and just handle what you can handle which is what you do because otherwise it would it would SW it's huge yeah you know it's just huge it's one of the biggest things in the history of things yeah so it's like so and you can feel it which brings me to the second question is it you know it is it is physically I'm sure and as well as mentally quite exhausting when you're on sets and doing this um how do you switch off when you're out because you you guys are on a schedule you're working nonstop good question we never get we never get asked that question yeah I mean I I love my music so I I love uh writing music just writing in general journaling I think it's such a great way to give yourself an opportunity to tell your story as an actor I think um we spend so much time in someone else's head or and and and telling someone else's story that we kind of forget that we are on our own Journey um and so for me like my in in my music that's my chance to to let out who I am and there can be so many other ways to do that but um that's that's my switch off from my I I actually write quite a bit as well but I mean I I right um I I always want to be a director filmmaker and you know my focus much more on my acting cuz it's been you know was taken out so I do that quite a bit but I also very manual so I wish I I I wish I could have like a Tik Tok or something like that cuz I'm always like doing Pottery or sculpting I have a little secret love of of restoring antique furniture so I'm always doing stuff like that all the time like and when I'm when I'm not onet hidden talent right here in the room and and clearly you know alternate professions if possible oh yeah absolutely but um does does okay now season 2 is of course out there it's going to be out releasing very soon and we are going to be watching the entire thing you've been part of the season first season as well um was it physically daunting for to be part of it like first second both both oh man I can speak for for myself I have a little bit of a more unique challenge in terms of you know when you're playing like the action hero of something or having an active component it is a is a it's it's a very different Journey like than just going and doing the dramatic aspect of it all because of the training and sometimes you're working like twice as much because I have to be learning all these things hours and hours and hours tens and you know dozens of hours um every week new skills um and and the particular thing with an elf is that you have to think about is that yeah a guy will throw a punch in a certain way like that cuz we're human but an elf will have been doing these things for hundreds and hundreds of years so everything has much more precision and the only way to acquire that is through a lot of uh practice and training so physically when I rap I essentially just get on UB eats and just eat ice ice cream or whatever door Dash whatever it is uh I scream and wings and I just don't even want to look at a gym I am from India so I will obviously ask you are you guys aware of the Indian fan base that the series has have you guys been able to I mean I was I was in India two years ago for the season one press R and it was mind-blowing to to see that kind of support just the sheer beauty of the country like just the the people and the hospitality it was it was honestly just such a great experience I need to get back there have you guys watched any Indian film or a ver of Indian artist he is a good I I see from your face that there's that you have watched the oh I love it I love I mean last one was it pad maati that I was watching oh p i was watching that recently um I mean I love Bollywood as well so when I do Long Haul flights I try to watch at least one oh wow oh I absolutely love it I just worked with prianka choa as well and that was fantastic and I love rman and I I I I there's a lot I mean I'm so so excited and I I every time that I do like a live and I get
