New Delhi, Nov 20 'Mirzapur' actor Anangsha Biswas, who has featured in quite an impressive list of OTT shows, has a background in theatre, which, in her own words, has taught her a lot.
"Theatre has a different infectious energy. Once I am on stage, it's only me and my higher self, everything else is immaterial. For me, it's like connecting to god.
"Theatre is immensely exciting for me because there aren't any retakes. It emulates life. It's like once a moment passes you can't get it back, you can create another new moment, just like plays. Once you are on stage good, bad, ugly you perform no retakes. There will be another show but no retakes.
Secondly, you don't really have to wait for the audience reaction. Just after the show, you have the audience review and their observations help you as an actor learn a lot," Biswas, 30, told life in an interview.
Sharing more her background in theatre and your performances with industry veterans, Biswas shares that she is from the creatively fertile land of Kolkata, and "generally the majority of kids in Kolkata while growing up have two schools: Monday to Friday, the academic school, and weekend art school where we are taught classical music, classical dance, drawing, poetry recitation".
"Everything arts-related we learned over the weekend. Kolkata kids are encouraged to read books
