The actor refused to use glycerine for a scene in Zindaggi Rocks, saying that it is a tool for non-actors
Shiney Ahuja, who plays a doctor in Tanuja Chandra's Zindaggi Rocks, was all ready for his shot. That is, till Chandra asked him to use glycerine for an emotional scene where Shiney was required to sob. But the actor was adamant about not using glycerine, he wanted to deliver the shot naturally.
" Tanuja wanted me to use glycerine, but I didn't. I think glycerine is a tool for non-actors. I have done intense scenes before but have never used glycerine," says Shiney.
"Shiney is very particular about not using glycerine. He feels glycerine looks artificial. For him, a scene has to be motivating enough to bring tears in his eyes," explains Chandra.
The director was taken aback when she saw Shiney burst into tears within a few minutes. "It's difficult, but most of the time I place myself in a given situation and automatically tears starts rolling down my eyes. It's a human instinct and I think every actor should practice it," says Shiney.
The actor also feels that these days most actresses concentrate more on their hairstyle and make-up, than acting.
"Barring Sushmita Sen, I have not seen a single actress who pays attention to her character. I think every actor should attend a few theatre workshops rather than wasting their time in beauty parlours and gymnasiums," Shiney adds.
However, the actor seemed tight-lipped, when quizzed about his character in Zindaggi Rocks, "Every actor talks about his/her film before the release. But I leave it to the audience to decide whether a film is good or bad. I would rather wait for the film to release and then talk about it," he explains.
The actor has been recently signed by T Series for Priyadarshan's next with Vidya Balan. Shiney will soon start shooting for Sudhir Mishra's Bahut Nikhle Armaan with Soha Ali Khan
