Dulquer Salmaan pens a note on the seventh anniversary of Second Show
It has been exactly seven years since Dulquer Salmaan made his entry to the world of cinema. Today, he is not just one of the biggest stars in Malayalam cinema, he has also successfully established himself as a pan-Indian actor. Having done films in Malayalam, Tamil, Telugu and Hindi, Dulquer is currently shining in glitz and glamour. But it all started with a very ordinary entry without any sort of fanfare. His debut film ‘Second Show’ had a bunch of newcomers, both in the cast and crew. On the seventh anniversary of the movie, the actor penned a sweet little note thanking his parents, friends, industry insiders and all the film lovers, who have continuously supported and encouraged him.
Dulquer’s note reads,
Today marks 7 years since my first film released. Ironically called #SecondShow ! Don’t think I’ve ever been as afraid in life as I was during that period. In many ways I put undue pressure on myself. Felt I couldn’t afford to put one foot wrong. More than anything didn’t want to be a huge embarrassment to my wonderful parents. But there was something so organic and natural about how everything flowed from the time I said yes to this film. Around the same time I met my to be wife. Midway through the filming of SS, #UstadHotel came my way. Something about that year, everything in my life changed. Maybe the stars aligned. Maybe it was all written. Maybe it was was destiny. Maybe it was Gods will. Maybe it was maybelline ! Haha jokes aside as always I’m only full of gratitude. To my beloved family. My epic friends. The amazing people of the one of a kind Malayalam film industry. The wonderful folk of other industries that welcomed me out of the love & respect they have for Malayalam films. More than anything the incredible film lovers that shower me with endless love and encouragement. I bow before all of you with the utmost gratitude. Here’s to the next year !
