Farhan Akhtar reacts to Abhay Deol’s claim of being demoted in ZNMD

MUMBAI: After Abhay Deol expressed his disgruntlement with the fact that he and Farhan Akhtar were demoted to ‘supporting actors’ in Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara by awards shows, Farhan said that such validation did not matter to him. Earlier, Abhay had said that Hrithik Roshan and Katrina Kaif were considered to be the ‘actors in a leading role’, while he and Farhan were snubbed

Farhan, at the India Today e-Conclave, said that he was not in the film industry to be featured on magazine covers or be treated like a ‘reality star’. “You are constantly hearing about some rat race and everybody is fighting each other to some kind of spot which does not exist. I mean the fact is you have to believe in yourself, you have to work sincerely, work hard, how many magazine covers you will do, whether you came on the front page of a magazine, or the front page of a newspaper,” he said.

“If that is your larger interest, I really feel that you are in the wrong profession. You’re not here for that. Have you come here to be an actor, director, singer, music composer, or have you come here to be a reality star? Have you come here to be just, I don’t know, a star?” he added.

The actor said that seeking external validation might lead to momentary satisfaction but would only cause disappointment eventually.
