Actor Amit Sadh recently opened up about his hit 2013 film ‘Kai Po Che’ and why it did not help him secure further roles, contrary to expectations. He explained that although the movie generated a lot of buzz, it failed to advance his career.Amit about life after Kai Po CheIn an interview with The Indian Express, Amit spoke about the unexpected trajectory his career took after the release of ‘Kai Po Che’, in which he shared the screen with Rajkummar Rao and the late Sushant Singh Rajput. Despite the film’s widespread success, Sadh said the attention didn’t translate into consistent acting offers. “I got a lot of attention. If I make you a graph, I see a huge spike. There was a spike of attention all of a sudden, then nothing. It was tough,” Sadh revealed.
He went on to say that there was no work for a few months. “Then my whole thing is, if I don’t get work, I pick up my bag and go to the forest. Kaam nahi hai, koi baat nahi, Kai Po Che toh aa gayi hai,” he added. The actor later landed some good roles in films like Guddu Rangeela, but admitted that they didn’t work out commercially.Amit about his choices in moviesKnown for his intense and gritty portrayals, Sadh was asked whether such roles were a conscious choice. The actor responded that such characters come to him naturally, and he never complains. He also noted that he doesn’t get as many opportunities as people might think. Amit further reflected on how the scarcity of acting offers leaves him with limited options, forcing him to choose the best among them with care. He emphasised that staying idle isn’t feasible for him due to personal responsibilities—he has to support his life, family, and pets. Despite these challenges, he considers himself fortunate to occasionally land a good project that keeps him going.Work frontOn the work front, Sadh’s recent appearance was in ‘Pune Highway’, co-starring Jim Sarbh and Manjari Fadnnis. He will next be seen in a crime thriller directed by Pradeep Rangwani.
