Mihir Ahuja: Acting Without Text is Most Difficult, Proves True Skill

"In acting, silence speaks louder than words. When we are preparing for a scene or a script, most of the time, we spend time on the dialogues. But everything is written in the dialogues. In acting, there's a word called subtext. There's a line, but what's behind it? What's inside the line? What's going on behind it? There's a subtext."

"When there's no text, creating a subtext is the most powerful thing. When it's conveyed, there's nothing more beautiful than that," he said.

The actor also spoke about his experience on working on the project, "Shabad-Reet aur Riwaaz", a series that explores relationships, faith and life's complexities.
