An actor has to look 100% natural on screen, even if he has to act angry, drunk, insane or even a yogi. Yash Tonk has been a method actor and has been known to give his takes naturally for every scene in just 2 takes maximum! While he has known to play comic characters in the past, it was easy for him to deliver in comedy scenes, but what happened when he had to deliver his part in a serious role like Brij Kishore in Sony TV’s Kyun Utthe Dil Chhod Aaye.
To look the most natural and to not scare off Pranali with his harsh tone and loud pitch, Yash Tonk rehearses his harsh fighting scenes with Pranali prior to the final take. Those are the scenes where he has to really act in a negative zone or even raise his voice on his on screen wife, Yash could not do that in just the final take without rehearsing it because he considers Pranali as his dear friend. While rehearsing their quarrel scenes, Pranali eases out Yash saying it’s okay to raise his voice on her or even take a rude tone with her for a particular scene to look flawless.
Talking about these quarrel sequences, Yash says, “I might be a method actor, but I’m a very soft hearted person too when it comes to my friends and family. Pranali has become a dear friend ever since we started shooting for Kyun Utthe Dil Chhod Aaye. I don’t feel like raising my voice at her even for a scene. So for the final take to be flawless, I rehearse my harsh fighting scenes prior to the final take. She eases me out and asks me to yell at her even if that’s what the scene demands.”
Kyun Utthe Dil Chhod Aaye airs on weekdays on Sony TV.
