After 12 years in the entertainment industry, actor Gulshan Devaiah says it has been “very incredible.” “I feel like I was just a teenager, who dreamt of becoming an actor with movie posters in my room and hoping I would do something one day. I didn’t know anything about the business then and so far, in the process, I have learnt a lot of things about my craft. It is quite unbelievable,” Devaiah shares.

Looking back at his career, the 44-year-old feels, “I feel if Hunterrr (2015; his first commercial film as a lead actor) had made ₹100 crores, then yes, I could have had a better career. It was a successful film, but it was not an enormously successful one that set the box office on fire. I am realistic about that. That’s the reality. Did I have hopes on it? Yes, maybe a little too much. But then you learn from such things. Everywhere I go people still talk about that, they identify my work and are appreciative of that. It has given me some kind of brand value. I do have respect and I do get work. It has also exponentially grown after Hunterrr’s release but yes it was also disappointing I don’t cry about it. Yes, some films won’t turn out that way. I have had to have those chats with myself that I cannot get upset with every other thing like hits and flops and rejections,” he elaborates.
