Mumbai, March 27 Actor Pratik Gandhi recalled his very first play, which he performed in his primary school on World Theatre Day.
The 'Phule' actor took to his official Instagram handle and posted a couple of throwback photos from the play on social media.
Pratik admitted that the joy that is visible on his face in these pictures is what he still feels when he is on stage.
The 'Dhoom Dhaam' actor wrote on the photo-sharing app, "This is where it all began! Sharing this cherished memory from my very first play from my primary school days. The joy on my face is what I still feel when I am on stage. (sic)"
Pratik added that although he didn't realize this back then, the performance was his first step towards building something permanent.
Looking back at the fond memory, he went on to share, "I didn't know it then, but those cardboard sets and missed cues were quietly building something permanent. World Theatre Day feels like a tribute to the place where confidence wore costumes before it found courage."
"Happy World Theatre Day to the first stage we ever called our own!", the post concluded.
Earlier this month, Pratik expressed his joy over the Gujarati film “Laalo – Krishna Sada Sahaayate” becoming the first film from the industry to cross the Rs 100 crore mark.
Commemorating the crucial milestone for Gujarati cinema, he said, "Laalo becoming the first-ever Gujarati film to cross 100 crore is a proud moment for Gujarati cinema. It's a huge milestone for the entire team, and their journey makes that achievement even more inspiring.”
Pratik revealed that the story of the movie reminded him that it is important to trust the process and continue to work with sincerity rather than overthinking outcomes.
“It reminded me not to overthink, but to keep doing your work honestly and trust the process. When the team began, they didn’t even know if the film would be completed, let alone become such a historic success,” he added.
