Talented and versatile actor Om Puri has proved himself both in
commercial and art cinemas. But the actor who was known to successfully
perform any given character is losingOm Puri" src="http://www.india-forums.com/bollywood/images/uploads/om_puri_big.jpg" align="right" border="" hspace="5" vspace="5"> his charm on screen. This was
clearly visible in his last comedy flick Mere Baap Pehle Aap
in which his dialogue delivery and expressions didn’t had the kind of
comic punch that his co-stars enjoyed throughout the film. But this
doesn’t seem to affect Om Puri much.
“I believe I would have given a better performance in the film. But in
the end I am happy as the cheque I got for the film was huge,” laughs
out Om Puri. The veteran actor admits that big money involved in
commercial cinema took him away from the arties. “I enjoy working in
commercial cinema because I bring a lot of money home due to it.
Looking at my huge chques gives me utter satisfaction. Frankly, it is
only because of money that I opted for commercial cinemas rather than
arty ones,” shares Om Puri.
We do understand Om Puri sahab that money power indeed can attract any
individual. But the kind of image you have created for yourself, you
need to be choosier in case of films and also concentrate hard on your
character for which you have been known for in the past. After all
artist’s satisfaction lies in performing art only!
