New Delhi, July 17 (IANS) Actor Zain Durrani, whose latest release is “Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan,” acknowledges that insiders may have a head start, he believes their burden of expectations balances the playing field.
Asked as an outsider, what has been his honest experience navigating the industry so far, Zain told IANS: “I’ve kept my eyes on the goal rather than the obstacles. I know some have a head start in this race that we are running. But they’re also running with a lot of weight of expectations on their back.”
“I think that evens out the challenge. And then eventually that weight and measure is attached to those who make it so far in the game. I see it like that,” he added.
What were some of the early struggles or turning points in your career that shaped who you are today?

It's like the profession isn’t easy, but it yields fruits in hindsight,” said the actor, who has been seen in projects such as Mukhbir - The Story of a Spy, Bell Bottom, and Kuchh Bheege Alfaaz.
