Paramvir Singh Cheema reveals his biggest struggle after coming to Mumbai

Actor Paramvir Singh Cheema reveals proving talent and sustaining in Mumbai's film industry is the biggest struggle. Exclusive interview with IANS.

"To prove your talent and keep your place intact is the biggest struggle - Paramvir Singh Cheema"

Mumbai, May 03

Actor Paramvir Singh Cheema revealed what, according to him, was his biggest struggle after coming to Mumbai.

During an exclusive interaction with IANS, Paramvir revealed that he believes the real challenge for any aspiring actor who comes to Mumbai is to prove their talent and then to sustain in the industry.

He was asked, "What do you think is the biggest struggle after coming to Mumbai - to prove your talent or basic survival?"

Responding to the question, Paramvir told IANS, "To prove your talent, obviously. The rest is all a part of it."

"I also feel that once you have proved your talent, getting its return is also extremely difficult, as that sometimes takes a lot of time. At times, people who have already proved their talent still have to wait for work", added the 'Border 2' actor.

In the end, he concluded saying, "So to prove your talent and keep your place intact is the biggest struggle".

Talking about his work commitments, Paramvir is seen in "Sapne vs Everyone Season 2", which premiered on May 1, exclusively on Amazon Prime Video.

Produced by The Viral Fever (TVF), the web series has been written and directed by Ambrish Verma.

The show follows the journey of two men chasing their dreams in different worlds. Prashant (Played by Paramvir Singh Cheema) is trying his best to make his way into Mumbai's ruthless film industry, whereas Jimmy (Played by Ambrish Verma) is struggling in the cut-throat world of real estate and politics.

The recently released trailer shows Prashant leaving for Mumbai to pursue his dreams. On the other hand, Jimmy, who has successfully set up his own real estate firm, faces resistance.

Dropping the preview on social media, the makers wrote, "chasing dreams is easy, but surviving them isn't...#SapneVsEveryoneOnPrime, New Season, May 1 (sic)."

Paramvir is spot on. My friend spent 5 years struggling in Andheri, finally got a small role in a TV series, and then nothing for months. Talent alone won't help—you need the right connections and luck. The real struggle is the mental pressure.

I respect his honesty. Most actors pretend it's all about passion, but he's admitting that even after proving yourself, the returns don't come quickly. The industry is brutal. It's not just acting—any creative field in Mumbai is the same. You have to constantly prove your worth even when you're established.

Interesting perspective. I moved to Mumbai from the US for work, and I can see why he says this. Survival is tough but manageable with a job. Proving your talent in a city full of talented people? That's the real battle. Kudos to him for keeping it real. 🎥✨

Waah! Finally an actor who doesn't give the typical 'follow your dreams' speech. The waiting period after proving yourself is the worst. I've seen so many talented people leave Mumbai because they couldn't sustain the uncertainty. Hope Paramvir's new show does well! 🤞

I think he's slightly underestimating basic survival. Don't get me wrong, proving talent is crucial, but if you can't afford rent or food, you can't even get to the audition. Many aspiring actors end up doing odd jobs just to survive. Both struggles are equally real. Still, good that he's speaking about it.
