Actor Aman Singh aka Amandeep Singh, who has worked in theatre, films as well as TV, believes in method acting. He feels that method acting is very much relevant in today’s time and age. Aman Singh says, “Method is underrated and often misunderstood. It is usually associated with intense dramatic roles, but it is very much relevant in comedy also. This is something I learned from my acting teacher Robert Ellerman. It really resonated with me. I love using method acting for comedy. It helps me stay away from the cliches in comedy.”
Aman Singh has a long list of the directors that he wishes to work with. He says, “Directors I would like to work with in Hollywood are Woody Allen and Quentin Tarantino. In Bollywood, I wish to work with Vishal Bharadwaj. The depth of the characters in his movies have always fascinated me. If I could reverse time, I would love to be a part of the cinema of the great Satyajit Ray.”
An Electrical Engineer by profession, Aman started his journey in the entertainment industry as a model. After being the face of several popular TV commercials, he did theatre which was followed by acting in films. Aman says, “My first theatre project was ‘A Sketch of New York’, a long-running satirical sketch comedy show. I was also a part of campaign promoting Broadway musical ‘The Lion King’. Then I did movie ‘Look In My Eyes’ for which I received Best Supporting Actor award at Cult Film Festival. Recently I was cast as Victor in a staged reading of the popular feminist play Yerma originally written by Federico García Lorca.”
The actor further opens up on his upcoming projects and says, “I have a show called ‘Narcissists of New York City’ which is currently under post production. It will release later this year. I also have a yet untitled movie project which is a teenage drama. It revolves around the story of a teenage girl who decides to become a single mother. I am also part of a theatre production called ‘The Bacchae’ by Euripides. It’s a Greek tragedy and will be take place over the summer of 2023.”
