Actor Roshan Mathew, a well-known face in the Malayalam film industry, is just three-movies-old in Bollywood but has already made his mark. Even as he is currently juggling work commitments in the Southern film industries and Bollywood, he still does not feel the need to have a manager for himself. Mathew believes that there has been no discernible change in his life apart from the fact that he visits Mumbai more often now, almost on a monthly basis.
“There have been a couple of instances where I’ve been recognised. At most, I get a customary nod, or people approaching me to say they like my work, or a request for a picture. My life in Kochi hasn’t changed much either, apart from choosing not go to a crowded mall on a weekend!” says Mathew.
Mathew’s last movie was – his first Hindi-language theatrial release – starring Janhvi Kapoor and Gulshan Devaiah. “I have always been in awe of Gulshan’s work from the time of Shaitan. Unfortunately, I didn’t have any scenes with him.
I got along with Janhvi well. She brings sincerity to the sets,” says Mathew. Along with ’s release, Mathew celebrated the milestone anniversary of the release of , the 2022 OTT film starring Alia Bhatt, Shefali Shah, and Vijay Varma.
“In all the three films that I’ve done, I found some very talented, inspiring people to work with and have continued to be friends with them even after the completion of the project. That itself is a big thing. It’s not something that happens after.
