Strolling around New York streets with a cup of coffee in his hand, visiting the iconic Central Park and just soaking up life on the go, 바카라The White Tiger바카라 star says shooting for sci-fi series 바카라바카라 in the US was a dream trip.
The actor, who became famous globally for his performance in the Ramin Bahrani바카라s 2021 film adaptation of the Aravind Adiga novel of the same name, hopes the critical acclaim of the movie and now his role in the Apple+ climate change series will help him find good roles in India as well as the West.
바카라âż바카라 really put me on the map. I feel like I am getting the best of both worlds. Best of what바카라s happening in India and what바카라s happening in the West. I am just hoping to capitalise and make the most of my opportunities right now because I want to be a citizen of the world. I want to be a global actor,바카라 Gourav told PTI in an interview.
The Bafta-nominated actor, who now has representation in both the US and UK, recalls how he could not promote or join the awards campaign of 바카라The White Tiger바카라 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
바카라I attended Baftas from my living room and the Oscars from my living room,바카라 he added.
But that has not dampened Gourav바카라s determination to find his place in the global acting community.
바카라I know in my gut that I will be travelling a lot with my work. It will happen,바카라 he said.
바카라The White Tiger바카라 helped him land the lead role in 바카라Extrapolations바카라, a starry series by Scott Z. Burns of the 바카라Contagion바카라 and 바카라An Inconvenient Truth바카라 fame that meditates on what life would be in the future if climate concerns are not addressed urgently.
After spending around 15-20 days shooting in New York for "Extrapolations", Gourav stayed back at Bahrani바카라s house to explore the city, something he could not do earlier due to the pandemic.
바카라I lived with Ramin for 10 days, ate lots of good food. Went to museums, went to Central Park and all the other parks that were around Brooklyn. Williamsburg was my favourite place, (there were) lots of chilled out pubs, bars, thrift stores.
바카라Even if you are walking on the streets with just a cup of coffee, it is such a delightful place to be around. Like Mumbai is the melting pot of India, New York is the melting pot of the world in that sense바카라Š It is just fun to sit around on a park bench and look around,바카라 he said.
Gourav stars in the fifth episode 바카라2059 Part II: Nightbirds바카라 of 바카라Extrapolations바카라. The episode is streaming on Apple+ TV.
The actor plays a driver in Mumbai of 2059 where clean air has become precious and monetised. His character is given the responsibility to transport a high-stakes cargo with another companion.
바카라Extrapolations바카라 made its global premiere on March 17, 2023, followed by one new episode every Friday through April 21, 2023. It also has the likes of Meryl Streep, David Schwimmer, Kit Harington, Matthew Rhys, Heather Graham, Sienna Miller, Edward Norton, Michael Gandolfini, Indira Varma, Diane Lane, Keri Russell, Gemma Chan, Marion Cotillard and Forest Whitaker as part of the ensemble.
Be it starring in a sci-fi show full of action and adventure or visiting America and shooting there, Gourav said the show ticked all the boxes for him.
바카라When I was offered the part, I was not aware of the other cast members so that was a huge icing on the cake for me. It is insane that all these people agreed to be a part of the show,바카라 he said referring to the A-list cast.
The episode starring Gourav is directed by Richie Mehta of 바카라Delhi Crime" fame, a filmmaker, the actor said, he was keen to collaborate with after seeing his work in the International Emmy-winning series.
바카라He saw 바카라Extrapolations바카라 as a simple human story of two people who are forced by circumstances to be together on a mission. He wanted it to be a simple human story that signified something greater and complex stories are his speciality,바카라 the actor said of Mehta.
Gourav credits Bahrani for helping him land an agent in the US, a crucial step in helping actors land roles.
The director바카라s former agent, George Freeman, saw a screener of 바카라The White Tiger" before its release and asked whether the actor would want to be represented by him. Gourav instantly agreed.
Gourav hopes people get to watch his episode of 바카라Extrapolations바카라 in India.
He next features in the Netflix series 바카라Guns and Gulaabs바카라 and 바카라Kho Gaye Hum Kahan바카라, produced by Excel Entertainment and Tiger Baby.
바카라(They are) very different projects in terms of makers, actors and the vision. (This is an) exciting year for me. I am curious to see what happens with all of them,바카라 he said.
