\"KalyaniIn the wake of ‘Lokah: Chapter 1- Chandra’s’ sensational success, Kalyani Priyadarshan reflects on the invaluable lessons imparted by her father, renowned filmmaker Priyadarshan. She recounts how his relentless pursuit of excellence persisting through health challenges ignited her passion and discipline in the industry.His next film is going to be Bhoot Bangla with Akshay Kumar, Tabu and Paresh Rawal. After the record-breaking success of Dulquer Salmaan<\/a> produced Lokah: Chapter 1 – Chandra, which crossed over Rs 300 crore globally, Kalyani Priyadarshan<\/a> is being celebrated as one of the most consistent and hardworking actors in the Malayalam film industry. In the midst of the praise, Kalyani took a moment to reflect on the most valuable lesson she inherited from her father, the legendary filmmaker Priyadarshan<\/a> – an unshakable work ethic.The master director was in thick of action few days back when he shot for his upcoming film Haiwaan with Akshay Kumar and Saif Ali Khan in the middle of Mumbai city.\u201cI\u2019ve always said that what I picked up from him is his work ethic and his professionalism,\u201d Kalyani shared in an interview with ETimes. \u201cAll my life, I\u2019ve just seen him work. He gives his all, even to this day. He doesn\u2019t need to; he\u2019s older now, and his body isn\u2019t as strong as it used to be. But even now, I\u2019ve seen him shoot crazy hours, shoot in the rain, or work while running a fever.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kalyani Priyadarshan\u2019s ‘Lokah \u2013 Chapter One’ Becomes Highest-Grossing Malayalam Film With \u20b9278 Crore<\/p>\n

She vividly recalled moments from her childhood that left a lasting impression on her. \u201cI\u2019ve seen him with a hundred-and-something-degree fever, drinking super hot tea, shivering, holding a mic, and still saying \u2018action.\u2019 I\u2019ve seen him running around at 10:30 at night trying to figure things out on a set. This is the man I grew up watching,\u201d she said with admiration.For Kalyani, witnessing that level of commitment shaped her own attitude toward her work. \u201cSomewhere along the way, that became a part of me too,\u201d she said. \u201cAnyone who has worked with me ,they can say a hundred things about me, but one thing I\u2019ll never allow them to say is that I\u2019m lazy. I\u2019m sure everyone who\u2019s worked with me will say that I\u2019m hardworking, and I get that from my father.\u201dShe believes that her father\u2019s approach to filmmaking where the producer\u2019s trust and the film\u2019s integrity come before everything else deeply influenced her sense of responsibility as an artist. \u201cHe has always given his all for a film, and his producer has always come first,\u201d she added. \u201cThat mentality has become mine as well.\u201d Priyadarshan’s next release is going to be Bhoot Bangla with Akshay Kumar,Paresh Rawal , Tabu and Wamiqa Gabbi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In the wake of ‘Lokah: Chapter 1- Chandra’s’ sensational success, Kalyani Priyadarshan reflects on the invaluable lessons imparted…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":282832,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[10075,64,63,447,37125,134,163342,66942,66943,10069,10079,8222,63633,123062],"class_list":["post-282831","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-akshay-kumar","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-celebrities","tag-dulquer-salmaan","tag-entertainment","tag-haiwaan-film","tag-kalyani-priyadarshan","tag-lokah-chapter-1-chandra","tag-paresh-rawal","tag-priyadarshan","tag-saif-ali-khan","tag-tabu","tag-wamiqa-gabbi"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/282831","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=282831"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/282831\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/282832"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=282831"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=282831"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=282831"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
