Gulshan Devaiah Reflects on
Imagine you're on a team at school for a big project.
Sometimes, you have to work with classmates you don't really hang out with, and maybe they can be a bit difficult.
Actor Gulshan Devaiah said something similar about working with actress Janhvi Kapoor, meaning they didn't easily become friends while making a movie.
This comment caused a bit of trouble online, and Janhvi's team got worried.
But Gulshan explained that he didn't mean Janhvi was a bad person.
He just thinks that as actors, they need to work together professionally, even if they don't become best buddies.
He even apologized to Janhvi, and she was very understanding.
He also mentioned that sometimes actors have to work with people who are very challenging, and he shared a story about a co-star who was going through a hard time.
Gulshan Devaiah clarified his past comment about not 'vibing' with Janhvi Kapoor, stating it was taken out of context.
He explained his remark was meant to emphasize professionalism and that actors don't need to be friends with everyone they work with.
Devaiah mentioned that Janhvi Kapoor was 'chill' and understanding when he apologized for the comment.
He shared that Janhvi's PR team experienced stress due to his 'unpredictable' comments during promotions.
Devaiah also discussed the challenges of working with difficult colleagues, sharing an anecdote about Mr. Tom Alter.

Professionalism vs. Personal Connection
Gulshan Devaiah's Perspective
Devaiah believes actors must be able to work with anyone, even those they don't personally connect with or who are 'terrible,' as professionalism is key and he doesn't have to be friends with everyone.

The implication is that such comments, even if intended humorously, can create an uncomfortable work environment and cause external stress (for the PR team), suggesting a need for more careful communication.
