Rishabh Thakur the Casting Director who has had vast experience in the Television industry over the last six years enjoys his job, especially because it nurtures the cute bond between the casting guy and actors!!
Rishabh who has cast for shows Humari Bahu Silk, Aghori, Gudiya Hamari Sabhi Pe Bhari, Ladies Special, Barrister Babu, Vighnaharta Ganesh, episodics like Laal Ishq, Crime Patrol, Savdhan India, Pyar Tune Kya Kiya etc says, “We have a very refreshing bond with the artists. It is a very feel-good rapport that we share. It is the perfect give and take bond that gets created, where both are equally important. Actors look forward to working with the people in casting, and we look forward to working with the best of actors for the role in hand.”
Rishabh has met many actors, experienced and new faces, people who understand things very quickly and also the ones who need a bit more explanation in understanding. “Patience is the key for a casting guy. We come across so many kinds of actors in our day-to-day life. It is important for us to get to know what they are looking for, and match it with what we want from them. There are times when actors do not understand things easily. It needs an elaborate talk and guidance, and a few acting tips for them to gain perfection. As a casting guy, I look into all these intricate details to make my actors comfortable.”
