Sanjeev Tiwary is one actor who always believes in giving his best and the length of the roles doesn’t bother him much. Recently, Sanjeev Tiwary got the opportunity to do a very small part in Netflix’s immensely popular series ‘Tribhuvan Mishra CA Topper’ which he agreed to do as he knew that despite the short length, his part would be noticed and it would be eventually talked about. Sanjeev Tiwary played a small role role named Abdul in the series and left his mark as an actor.
But few know about this very talented actor’s eventful journey. He is the winner of the first acting based reality show ‘Superstar’ which was telecasted on DD Metro two decades back. As a winner he was promised a leading role in a budget Bollywood movie titled ‘Ishq Vishq’ and the promise was made in front of the directors like Hansal Mehta and Milan Luthria who were among the judges of this acting based reality show. It is the same year when actors like Vineet Kumar Singh and Siddharth Jadhav also participated in the show, Sanjeev Tiwary was declared as the winner of the show.
But even after the fiasco, Sanjeev Tiwary didn’t lose heart and kept trying his luck at the movies. Meanwhile, he kept honing his skills and joined the theatre circuit and started acting in various plays. For more than 20 years, he worked with theatre stalwarts like Pandit Satyadev Dubey, Sagar Sarhadi and Piyush Mishra. Later, he got the opportunity to play the lead role in a film titled ‘Chausar’ which was directed by his long time associate Sagar Sarhadi. The film also starred Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Amruta Subhash in prominent roles. Sadly, even though the film was completed, it couldn’t be released in cinemas. Then, he got another prominent part in the comedy film titled ‘Mera Kya Hoga Lambodar’ which also had Pavan Malhotra in a pivotal role but this time the film couldn’t get completed and once again Sanjeev Tiwary was left stranded with his Bollywood dreams.
In such a scenario, he kept going and worked in many TV shows like ‘CID’, ‘Aahat’, ‘Kagaar’, ‘Haqdaar’ etc in which his work was appreciated. Reminiscing the lost opportunities of showcasing his talent through Bollywood films in the last two decades or so, Sanjeev Tiwary says, “For me things would have been different if after winning the reality show ‘Superstar’ the promise to cast me in a film would have been kept. Later, when my film ‘Chausar’ didn’t get released, I was heartbroken once again. The lost opportunities in Bollywood cost me so much in life. But I kept going and did theatre and TV to survive and feed my family”.
Today, due to the lack of acting opportunities in Bollywood films, Sanjeev Tiwary, along with his wife, translates English series into Hindi and is also known as a excellent dubbing artist. Bur Sanjeev Tiwary has not given up on his Bollywood dreams. He says, “I am sure a lot of people must have noticed me in ‘Tribhuvan Mishra CA Topper’ and I am also sure that sooner or later people are going to recognise my acting abilities. There is no kick like acting in front of the camera.”
