MUMBAI: Coordinator, freelance casting manager, artist manager, and entrepreneur Rupesh Sonar has done it all! In a candid chat, he talks about how he got into casting and more. Read on.
1. When and how did you enter the field casting?
It has been 17 years since I have been doing casting. I entered the field through the ad world. I did ads for around 2 to 3 years and then started with TV. I did my first show Rishton Ki Dor on Sony, where I had brought Sampada Vaze and others.
2. Tell us a little about your background.
I am born and brought in Mumbai, and I have done my masters in commerce. My father was a junior artist, and I used to go with him to the set. There, I used to see that the life of a junior artist is very difficult. I knew that I wanted to do something for them. I would coordinate for them and do their casting.
3. Were you interested in casting since the beginning?
Yes, I was interested in casting as I used to go on
