When Dibyendu spoke about facing rejections
Off-lately Dibyendu has been a constant on the OTT platform with shows like ‘Maharani’, ‘Rocket Boys’, and ‘The Railway Men’. The actor however maintains that every good actor has encountered rejections in some form. He explains, “I never gave auditions for the projects I have done in the past. I didn’t realise what rejection meant until I got a character. But later on, I gave auditions and it didn’t work. I didn’t know the system for a long time because I thought I am an artist, an actor. I have a point of view to prepare any character. This is my own personal craft. There is no set rule. I always thought that I am going to give an exam and somebody is going to judge me whether I can act or not. I never understood, didn`t know why it happened. When I clicked a couple of auditions and moved on, it happened many times that I am doing this role, and later found out that the movie was made and I’m not in it. But all these things are part and parcel of life. So I never think about these things.”
