Ludhiana-born and US-trained actor Nikhil Verma, who is in Dharamshala shooting for his first full length Hindi feature film in India, is fully charged up for his maiden big acting project in India.
He was earlier in New York where he graduated from Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute (LSTFI) as a method actor.
Nikhil reveals that last year (2019) he wrapped up an off broadway production of ‘Look In My Eyes’ and decided to visit his family for new year but little did he know that his short visit would extend to a longer one.
Despite getting stuck here, Nikhil has no complaints. He reveals that even though he had projects lined up in New York which he eventually missed but he tried to make the most of his time here in India by making connections and giving auditions regularly for local projects which eventually led to results.
He has so far acted in an Indie web series where he played the lead, a commercial, a daily soap and is now shooting for his first feature film in India.
He shares that it’s an important movie for his career with an important message and he is playing a vital part in it.
