MUMBAI : The actress Kay Kay Menon has discussed keeping his true self in the business, describing himself as a "dispassionately passionate actor" and without placing himself on a pedestal. The talented actor who was recently seen in the series Shekhar Home opened up about his opinion on himself as an actor.
Kay Kay said, “I really don't get too buttered because people are the way they are. You cannot take on the onus of changing things or people. I don't put myself on a pedestal, nor do I think I am the worst. So, it's a midway thing. I am a dispassionately passionate actor. I am very passionate while I am working; the day the work is over, I am dispassionate. You try to do your work properly.”
The 57 year old actor revealed, “I always call myself a simulator. Actor, but simulator. That's my job. Everything I am doing, say I am playing Shekhar, is a simulation. I am not that, I am Kay Kay Menon. It is an impression I am giving to the audience. It's not by expressing something. I should give an impression that it is Shekhar and you should be able to touch it.”
He further added, “I do get these small nuances which I do not realize myself. I have surrendered myself to that situation and environment and things automatically happen. If you are there and you truly surrender yourself to the character and situation, magical things happen. I don't take ownership of it like it's my design.”
Kay Kay concluded, “I seriously believe man-made designs have their own limitations. You are watching a wonderful piece of architecture created by humans and are in awe. It's not exponential, it's not infinite. What man can do is create a construction. You see a tree, a plant- that is magical. That creation is difficult to match. Creation happens when you are completely involved in it.”
