Two of Bollywood’s most talented actors, Jaideep Ahlawat and Vijay Verma, have appeared together in several films so far, such as “Baaghi 3” and “Jaane Jaan”. But the two have a very long friendship, with Vijay and Jaideep studying together at the Film and Television Institute (FTII), Pune. In fact, “Street 2” star Rajkumar Rao is also his classmate. The trio had worked together in the film Chittagong (2012).
These actors who came into the industry with no background have now made a huge mark for themselves and are considered to be some of the most influential figures in the industry today. Vijay and Jaideep took a little more time than Rajkumar Rao, but both said they never felt like they were struggling because of their friends.
“There was no money, even then there were kings”
Jaideep told The Hollywood Reporter, “What people call struggle, we don’t feel it because we have people around us who share this struggle with us.” Vijay added, “Despite having nothing, we I feel like I have everything, we are kings.” The two also said that although there was little money at the time, FTII and the following days were the happiest days of their lives. “We live a carefree life without any agenda,” Vijay said.
Jaideep used to go to the mall to wipe his sweat
However, Jaideep said traveling in Mumbai is very difficult. “One day, I took a bus to save money. By the time I reached Infinity Mall from Malad, I was drenched in sweat. So I entered the mall and sat there for a while. Whenever I It became a routine for me while taking this route from Malad,” Jaideep said.
He further said, “In Mumbai, whether it’s raining or sweating, you’re wet half the time.” I sweat a lot. One day I realized I couldn’t do this. I decided that if I had one less roast, I would never travel like this again. So I often go inside Infinity Mall, sit in the free air conditioning for half an hour, and then start my further journey.
