Vijay Varma Reflects on Early Career Struggles

Actor Vijay Varma, known for his roles in 'Pink,' 'Gully Boy,' and 'Mirzapur,' recently opened up about a particularly challenging period in his life when he had only Rs 18 in his bank account. In a series of interviews and podcasts, Vijay recounted how he faced extreme financial and personal difficulties, including a strained relationship with his father, which led him to stop taking money from home. He shared that this low point was a critical juncture that fueled his determination to succeed. Vijay reflected on advice he received that encouraged him to let his internal 'fire' burn, ultimately pushing him to persevere. He is now set to star in the Netflix series 'IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack,' premiering on August 29, where he plays Captain Devi Sharan, the pilot of the hijacked Indian Airlines Flight 814 in 1999.
