Mumbai, February 26 – Actor Gulshan Devaiah, known for his unique, unconventional, and innovative fashion choices, says that he has never been comfortable with the idea of dressing to suit the current trends.
Speaking about his approach to fashion, Gulshan said: “Fashion entered my life long before acting did. I studied fashion at NIFT, so for me, clothing has always been about individuality rather than following trends.”
“I’ve never been comfortable with the idea of dressing to fit into a certain mold or to please the moment. I style myself because it feels natural, I know what I like, what I'm comfortable in, and how I want to express myself.”
The actor understands that trends come and go, brands rise and fall, but personal style evolves with life and experience.
“I enjoy experimenting and being unique, because that’s part of the process. As long as it feels honest, fun, and true to who I am, I’m happy.”
Gulshan recently collaborated with Saiyami Kher in a soulful romantic music video titled ‘Aise Na Humko’, composed by celebrated lyricist-composer Swanand Kirkire.
Gulshan described the collaboration as a creative continuation rather than a conventional reunion.
He shared, "I loved working with Saiyami, loved spending time with her, and getting to know her through Glitch & 8 am Metro. Some people are just really nice to be around, and she is one of them. We have a wonderful camaraderie and onscreen chemistry. I jumped at the opportunity of creating something along with her again. That's it... it's that simple."
The music video was shot exclusively in Nashik, with key portions filmed at Saiyami Kher's farmstay, lending the visuals an organic and deeply personal charm.
Gulshan was last seen onscreen in Kantara: A Legend – Chapter 1, directed by Rishab Shetty. The film stars Rishab in four roles as Berme, Mayakara, Annappa and Kaadubettu Shiva, along with Jayaram, Rukmini Vasanth, and Gulshan Devaiah.
A prequel to the 2022 film Kantara, the story delves deeper into the origins of the tradition and ancestral conflict introduced in the first film.
