Akshay Oberoi On Playing Grey Characters
Akshay Oberoi who is known for roles in movies like Fighter, Kalakandi and more expressed gratitude for having the opportunity to play such grey characters on screen. He said, “ I love gray characters. I’ve had the good fortune of being cast in gray characters multiple times. And I hope that filmmakers continue to do so because I discover parts of me that I didn’t know existed. I’m actually very naive. I’m actually very innocent. I don’t fully get how the world works.” The actor further revealed that he is very childlike, positive and optimistic in life and playing these characters teaches him a lot about himself and it is also the reason why he invests so much such grey on-screen roles.
