Adah Sharma Untold Side: Rejection, Fame, The Kerala Story & AI
What happens when an actor spends years dealing with rejection, being the second or third choice, public scrutiny, and the pressure of constantly proving herself? In this candid conversation, Adah Sharma opens up about the person behind the actor — her childhood, family, imagination, humour, independence, auditions, rejection, and her unconventional journey into acting. From her debut in 1920 to South Indian cinema and The Kerala Story, Adah reflects on the roles that shaped her career, the challenges behind the scenes, and what it feels like when fame brings both attention and backlash. She also talks about Puneeth Rajkumar, the kind of actor she wanted to become, handling emotional setbacks, success and failure, and learning to move forward. The conversation takes an unexpected turn into technology and AI — from creativity and AI-generated performers to whether actors should ever allow themselves to be digitally cloned, and where the line between technology and artists should be drawn.
