Prateik Chaudhary: An actor has to be consistent with his work so that people don't forget him

Prateik Chaudhary

admits that he wants to explore different acting genres and establish himself as a name to reckon with in the industry. He was seen playing the role of Arjun in the mythology show.

Talking about what are the pros and cons of doing historical shows, Prateik shares, “I feel that as an actor, one should be able to do everything. The plus side of doing such shows is that people of all ages watch them – there aren't any age barriers. But the minus side would be that these shows take a lot of time. For instance, before the shoot we have to do our make-up, hair and costume, which is very time consuming. I enjoyed playing Arjun on screen, but I have been offered many mytho shows post that. So people kind of put you in a category.. That is why I don't want to do historical shows for now. I'm looking for something exciting and to come my way.”

He adds, “I became a recognised face after Paramavatar Shri Krishna and when I used to go to malls or public places, people would come up to me to talk and take pictures. But having said that, an

has to be consistent with his work, so that people don't forget them. Because of so many options available these days, fans forget actors soon. This is why I feel one needs to constantly keep working on various mediums.”
