Actor Suraj Sharma, known for his Oscar-winning performance in 'Life of Pi', is no stranger to the challenges of balancing a career across two continents. In an interview with PTI, he revealed that straddling between India and the US has not been easy, but he remains committed to choosing projects that resonate with him. Sharma's breakthrough role in 'Life of Pi' catapulted him to global fame, and since then, he has appeared in films and shows such as 'Phillauri', 'Gulmohar', 'Wedding Season', 'Homeland', and 'How I Met Your Father'. The actor attributes his success to his selective approach to projects, prioritizing story and character over other factors. Despite the differences between the Indian and American film industries, Sharma believes that both have their own unique stories to tell. He is currently focusing on quality over quantity, with several projects in the pipeline for India. Sharma is set to present his new movie 'The Tempting Madness' at the 56th International Film Festival of India, where he will be joined by co-star Simone Ashley. Directed by Jennifer E Montgomery, 'The Tempting Madness' is a psychological thriller that follows Mia, a woman haunted by her past and struggling to trust her memories. The film's world premiere at IFFI marks a milestone for Montgomery, who is thrilled to have Sharma on board. 'He's just so talented as an actor,' she said, praising Sharma's layered performance in the film. As Sharma continues to navigate the complexities of working in two different industries, he remains committed to choosing projects that speak to him. With several exciting projects on the horizon, fans can look forward to seeing more of this talented actor's work in the years to come.
