Soundarya Sharma feels practical knowledge gives far more edge in acting than theoretical knowledge
Actress Soundarya Sharma, who is getting a lot of positive response to her song 'Laal Pari' from 'Housefull 5', feels that the craft of acting can only be made better while performing, and no amount of theoretical knowledge can come close to the practical knowledge in acting. Actress Soundarya Sharma , who is getting a lot of positive response to her song 'Laal Pari' from 'Housefull 5', feels that the craft of acting can only be made better while performing, and no amount of theoretical knowledge can come close to the practical knowledge in acting. The actress recently spoke with IANS, and shared her experience working in two different media of theatre and cinema. The actress has done a workshop at the National School of Drama, in the national capital. She has also studied at Lee Strasberg Theatre in Los Angeles and did an acting course at NYFA, Los Angeles. The actress concurred that she is still quite new to both the media, and is learning the ropes on how things move in the industry. Speaking with IANS, the actress said, "Theatre is a different form than camera or cinema. When you perform in the theatre, you have to reach the person in the last row. So, you have to be a little more exaggerated version of every emotion, how you perform and of the character. So, both are different media". She further mentioned, "Emotions are the same but the way of expressing them is different. 'Housefull 5' is a very different film altogether. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Switch to UnionBank Rewards Card UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo It's not like it's very high on different forms of emotions and everything. I think the constant emotion is happiness, a fun element which is like day to day. But yeah, more to come as and when I do more work. Because you get better only by doing the work. Acting comes from doing, not learning. This is my opinion". Earlier, the actress had shared what the title of 'Laal Pari' means to her, as she said, "It feels great to be recognised at 'Laal Pari' when suddenly a voice comes from somewhere and says, 'Oh look Laal Pari' Soundarya'. It has that reckoning value, the relatability that people have seen. I feel blessed". When she was told that the popularity is almost similar to Malaika Arora 's 'Munni Badnaam', and Katrina Kaif 's 'Sheila Ki Jawani', the actress chose a humble path. She earlier told IANS, "They are phenomenal performers. Both the people you mentioned. They are my seniors. So, that will be a big thing". "But I think it is just the beginning. I have just started. I hope I get to perform more. I get to work more. And I need a lot of love", she added.

Housefull 5 Director Tarun On Laal Pari Plagiarism Claim: ‘No Intention To Steal'
Last Updated: Director Tarun Mansukhani says had he known Sandip Brahamin is the creator of the hat step in Housefull 5's Laal Pari, he would've brought him in to choreograph the song. Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan and Riteish Deshmukh starrer Housefull 5 maybe causing ripples at the box office but it's courting a controversy on grounds of plagiarism. A digital content creator and dancer named Sandip Brahamin has accused the makers of copying his 'signature hat move' in the song video of Laal Pari. In a reel, Sandip stated, 'I went to Instagram and YouTube and there is a movie called Housefull 5. It has a song called Laal Pari. They have copied my moves but they haven't mentioned my name, they haven't credited me (sic)." Reacting to his statements, Housefull 5 director Tarun Mansukhani exclusively tells News18 Showsha, 'I did read up something about that. To be honest, I hadn't seen his videos before. I had only gotten to know it after we had launched the song. I came to know that the step that we've in the song is the hook step that he's known for. I'm sure somebody must have seen it at some point somewhere and felt that it's a great step to do and we did it." For the unversed, Remo D'Souza has choreographed Laal Pari. Tarun says that had he known about Sandip, he would've brought him in to choreograph Akshay, Abhishek, Riteish, Nargis Fakhri, Jacqueline Fernandez and Sonam Bajwa. 'There was no intention to harm anyone or steal anything. Life isn't that conniving. If I had known this guy before, I would've brought him in to choreograph the song for my actors. Who would be a better choreographer of Laal Pari than the creator himself? It's as simple as that," he remarks. 'There was no intention to engage in any kind of plagiarism. It's just one of those things that ended up happening. We've very sorry if he feels like that. I want to reiterate that there was no intention of causing any harm of any form," he further adds. While Sandip had posted his reel on May 3, his video went viral on social media after Housefull 5 released in theatres on June 5. Meanwhile, Housefull 5 has entered the Rs 100 crore club, and its golden run continues. Talking about it, an excited Tarun tells us, 'It feels fantastic because I came back to the theatres after 17 years. My last theatrical film was in 2008 [Dostana]. Right now, we're at a Rs 178 crore gross worldwide." He admits that this feat feels even more 'special' especially since it comes at a time when the box office is going through a dry spell. 'I've sat and worked on this film for the last two years and now it has been accepted. More than being happy, we're grateful. We're thankful to someone who's watching from above. There's a certain amount of relief that it's done, it's out there and it's being appreciated. We're thrilled with the positive comments that people who've enjoyed the film have written for us, for the messages, for the calls and for the numbers the film is making," Tarun shares.
