Delnaaz Irani has been a part of the theatre world since her teenage years, yet even today, stepping onto the stage fills her with nervous excitement. The seasoned actress, known for her impeccable comic timing and stage presence, believes that this nervous energy is essential for any performer.

Delnaaz Irani – ‘Been a part of so many plays’

“I’ve been a part of so many plays, but still, every time I go on stage, I get butterflies in my stomach. Of course, once I’m on stage, it’s like I own it, but yes, I do get that nervous energy. A little bit of nervousness is good because it keeps you alert. If you’re overconfident, it doesn’t really pay off. That little scare, that little nervousness—it’s good for an artist who is going to perform on stage,” she shares.
