Until a few weeks ago, Suvinder Vicky would feel anxious about his career, worried that it wasn’t moving in the right direction. But that has changed dramatically since Kohrra dropped online over 10 days ago. “Maybe this is what fame feels like. My phone hasn’t stopped ringing,” laughs the actor, talking to us over a call from his Chandigarh house.
With Netflix’s gripping investigative crime thriller emerging as a sleeper hit, the Hindi film industry and the audience have found a new breakout talent in Vicky, who plays a Punjab cop investigating a murder case. The actor, 50, points out that his success is not overnight; instead, it’s the culmination of a 20-year journey. To him, Bollywood was always the destination, but he was too scared to pack his bags and move to Mumbai. “I come from a humble background. My parents weren’t keen on sending me to Mumbai because it felt unsafe. You keep hearing stories of outsiders, struggling to find work and pay bills. I could never muster the courage to follow my Bollywood dreams. So, I kept honing my craft, working in Punjabi films,” he says.
