Apart from this, he also spoke about the role of an actor in the film making process and how a character influences the role to a greater extent.
"Sometimes you like to retain a part of a character and you may not keep it either or dissipate but I like to believe that I retain something of each character I do and that makes me enriched," said Mr. Rajit Kapur during the session at the Heritage campus.
The students got an opportunity to interact with Mr. Kapur on the well known film of Shyam Benegal, which has shown the essence of the basic philosophies of Mahatma Gandhi which are still relevant today.
