AVINASH KURI Presented by
Avinash Kuri was a big fan of Bollywood. Since his childhood, his dream was to become an actor. His father was in Indian Army, and hence he has spent his childhood in Army Cantonments. • Though it’s hard to believe Avinash used to copy his Grandfather’s action when he was just 2 years old.
He used to mimic others when he was grown up a bit. His favorite time pass was to watch movies only. • Avinash used to think about choosing his father’s career path, also most of his friends were going on the same path as they all were army kids.
While watching these all movies on Doordarshan, he had so many ideas. He wanted to make a film on an Army soldier from a non-officer perspective but situations never let him think more about his ideas. • His love for acting was never going to leave him. He was in the 5th standard when he watched a Vinod Khanna film which was based on the life of Bandits.
This movie left a different impression on him. Avinash liked this movie so much that he gathered his friends to make their own bandit’s story. • While watching famous superstars like Amitabh Bachchan, Govinda, Shahrukh Khan, etc on the big screen, he always wanted to experience that in his life. Watching these actors made him fell in love with acting even more.
One of his life incidents changed his mind, he even stopped watching movies. One day his teacher asked to write an essay on “What do I want to become when I grew up?” He wrote about becoming an army soldier while one of his friends wrote about becoming an actor. • His teacher shouted at him for choosing acting as a career, which was wrong at her part.
After getting his mind off from movies, he saw his classmates going after Engineering. He decided to go with the flow. • He joined The Army school of Technology, Pune and once again acting came to his life. When his seniors used to call him for ragging, he used to mimic or some story depiction.
It didn’t take him any longer to realize what he actually wanted to do in life. Entertaining people by his skills and talent was going to be his next step. • He had another mountain in front of him to convince his parents for his new career choice. With a confused mind, he joined a job in a Software company named John Deere.
Still, he wasn’t ready to give up on his dreams, he joined a theatre group to work with them after office. • He did his first professional theatre play “Khamosh Adalat Jaari Hai”. Then the show was never going to stop, he worked on his next play called “Long Live Revolution” which was co-written and co-directed by him
After completing his 3 years at John Deere company wanted to give him an early promotion but he refused and also resigned from the job to follow his dreams. • He shifted to Mumbai and worked really hard. His upcoming feature film ‘Nirmal Anand Ki Puppy’ is proof that hard work always pays off. His life is not less than a movie itself.
