    Ek Villain Se Dusre Villain Tak - In Conversation With Sayaji Shinde

    What happens when two legends of Indian cinema — Ashish Vidyarthi and Sayaji Shinde — sit down to share untold stories from their extraordinary journeys? This rare, unfiltered conversation goes beyond filmography to explore raw beginnings, acting craft, theatre traditions, and life’s deepest lessons. From a childhood in rural Maharashtra with no electricity till 1981 to the unforgettable Shool breakthrough, from balancing a bank job with theatre rehearsals to mastering Stanislavski and Natyashastra, Sayaji opens up about everything — including the moments of rejection, humiliation, and resilience that shaped him. Discover how a simple “sari challenge” sparked a lifelong passion for acting, why “silence bhi music hota hai” is a golden truth for every performer, and how Sayaji transformed from a watchman into one of Indian cinema’s most respected multilingual actors — working across languages and countless cultures. The conversation also explores his powerful tree-planting mission (Devarai), inspired by his mother, and how he turned that love into a movement — creating forests, generating livelihood, and planting over 16,000 trees across Maharashtra. This is more than an interview — it’s a masterclass in art, purpose, and possibility. Chapters include: acting techniques, Stanislavski acting method, Natyashastra principles, theatre history, Sayaji Shinde interview, Ashish Vidyarthi podcast, Subramania Bharati biopic, Shool film story, tree plantation project, Devarai initiative, acting preparation, multilingual cinema, and more. #AshishVidyarthi #SayajiShinde #ActingMasterclass #IndianCinema #Theatre #Stanislavski #Natyashastra #Shool #SubramaniaBharati #Devarai #TreePlanting #ActingTips #ActorJourney #motivationalstories Untitled
