I love to prove myself every time I appear on screen

Vasishta Simha, who transitioned from being a villain to a character artist and to a hero role with 2020’s India vs England, is now taking on more lead characters, and working on multiple projects across languages. He has the Kannada film Love Li and the Telugu film Yevam, both releasing on June 14.

When asked whether he should have started his acting career as a hero, Vasishta said, “No, if I did, I would have run out and gone home by now,” while adding, “But I am glad that I made the transition. I love acting and love to be busy. Cinema is my life, and being part of it in any way makes me happy, whether it be in an antagonist, character, or comical role. I’m an artist and am never behind any tags. I should be ready to perform any given role and get recognised. I love to prove myself every time I appear on screen, and my performance should be convincing.”
