90s were very competitive times. Many young heroes debuted at that time like ronit roy , siddharth , harish , kamal sadanah , prithvi , vivek mushran , rahul roy , deepak tijori , sumit sehgal and also avinash wadhawan but very few like akshay , ajay , aamir , salmaan and shahrukh could make a long lasting rest switched to television or disappeared.

I met Avinash in 90’s & can say he was damn good looking actor. Sid K. Maybe millennials maynot much resonate,But, anyone born in late 60’s or 70’s will resonate with these guests you are bringing lately.Instead of knowing journeys of super sucessful’s,these guests who had a fleeting sucess & now their realisation of their mistakes make these interviews engaging & humane. Excellently conducted interview Sid K.where you let your guest open up their mind n heart without any interruptions. Keep it up & look forward for your future podcasts.

[@BonBonShrimp]

What a great interview! Genuine person. That was the time I was growing up. I saw AW in songs and also had watched the film Junoon. He seemed alright, but I think he lacked the x factor. Still could have done better if he took things a bit more seriously. For someone so intelligent (at least academically), I don't think his choices were really that good (in choosing both movies as well as schools). And I think that ultimately played a big role in shaping his career. Good luck for your future, Mr Wadhawan. Please don't live in regret. You did make an impression and you are still remembered today.

[@robindey4031]

You are absolutely right..He used to look extremely handsome but lacked that appeal..

[@sumikh1763]

Yash chopra incident proved that “Ju tumharay naseeb mai nahi Wo koi tum ko nahi dey Sakta”

[@jaydipdas4852]

[@निशांत_लांबा]

After watching this interview of Avinash, I remembered Akshay Kumar's statement, "There were more handsome and talented actors in the industry than me, but their luck was not as good as mine! In this industry, 70% luck and 30% hard work is required."

[@RoNसिंह]

Sach kaha ussey bhi handsome lag rha hai jabki unke paas sab kuch hai

[@BonBonShrimp]

While the general sentiment of his comment is true, AK is being humble here. He was arguably the most handsome actor of the 90s and 00s (barring maybe Salman). He was very talented and versatile also.

That’s why Akshay Kumar’s stardom is different from others that man has earned it the hard way without any bannner support or godfather and the way he peaked from 2005-2012 should be a case study for everyone! He will be the greatest entertainer in the history of Bollywood

Avinash was good looking and hence he managed to make big in the fashion world. But, he didn’t have the x-factor for mainstream Hindi films like Ajay, Akshay, Suneil, & others. He came across as a very quiet n simple guy who was perfectly suited to still-photography and not for motion pictures. Hindi film was all about hero delivering a larger than life image on screen. Strong dialogues, stunning action, great dances was the main ingredient of a star. Unfortunately, Avinash didn’t fit into that. He would have been successful in side-roles.
