Ravi Kishan
candidly opened up about the uncertainties he faced after stepping into politics. Speaking about his journey, he said, 'Laapata Ladies was met with a lot of praise, it went to the Oscars.
I had been manifesting something like this for 34 years. Nothing really worked out at first. But by Mahadev's grace, I became MP of Gorakhpur. At that point, I thought I would never get a call from the film industry again.'
He admitted feeling resigned to the idea that his film career had ended. 'I thought I would never get a call from the industry,' Ravi added. But destiny had other plans. 'At the end of the day, His blessings shape your path. Then came along the film by
Kiran Rao
.
I played a police officer who kept chewing paan. I had to chew 160 paans while staying put in one spot. From that one spot, all the way to Oscars.'
