12th December 2004

No one knows the whole script. We wait for our lines and directions as and when the situation warrants. Some actors are so good, that they don't realise they are acting. They say and do exactly what the script warrants without analysing or doubting. They are submerged in their character and they listen to their heart. If the drama overwhelms you, don't take it out on your fellow actors. All of us are trying to stick to the script. Some of us can adapt faster, improvise better and express ourselves more clearly. Some poor actors in our opinion might have actually been given that exact role, those exact lines, those exact features/traits. How can we know? We don't have access to the script.

Have faith in the director and script-writer. Ultimately, it's a happy ending or beginning. So while you are at it, make the most of this magnificent stage of human life accorded to you.
