Namit Khanna

"I achieved everything that a male model can achieve in our country. There was nothing more left for me to do apart from the same job. That’s what lead me to move on to bigger better things, but haven’t left modelling."

“Modelling is more about carrying a certain attitude and walking on the ramp showcasing the clothes you wear. After doing that for many years, you get used to keeping your face expressionless. Then, when you suddenly take the plunge into acting, it becomes difficult to start emoting. But we all learn and over the years, may be, everyone improves. Being on stage made me realise the importance of truly being in the moment and letting the magic happen. I’m truly grateful for these experiences and hope to be able to do more theatre in the future.”
