National Award winner Ashish Vidyarthi has acted in hundreds of films in languages like Hindi, Telugu, Malayalam and Bengali, but the actor in him wants more. He also feels he has had less opportunities in Bollywood. A few weeks ago, filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj said Bollywood hasn't given justice to Ashish's talent and that he is an underrated and under-utilised actor.
"I would (agree with Bhardwaj)," Ashish said with a laugh. "There are many roles and I haven't had the opportunity to do any of them. I jokingly tell people 'Sometimes I wonder, is the film industry waiting for me to die and then say it's sad. He was a good actor. He was underrated and didn't have enough chances'," he told IANS in a telephonic interview.
