Offering a piece of advice for budding actors, Kher recently shared: "Acting has no syllabus, that's why people come up with best performances even at the age of 80 or later. My advice to budding actors is that they have to practice their art constantly. It is something the more you practice, the better you will become. You have to work hard. It is every day's job for them to keep understanding, and to do the same thing again and again."
"Also, they have to develop a keen interest in people, because people, various people, are the bank of actors. The more they will know people, the more they will know emotion, the more they will know various aspects of anger, nine Rasas. So, I think that is what is important, and not to carry the burden of who you become. There are no shortcuts in acting," he added.
On the work front, Kher features as an anchor in the recently released documentary film 'Bhuj: The Day India Shook'. Sharing his experience of being a part of the project, the actor said: "In a project like this, 'not acting' is the most important thing. You have to first understand the essence of it. You are like a 'sutradhar', a narrator who has a soul, who empathises with them, who does not indulge in self-pity. It is like when you do meditation, in a state of meditation you have to say things that people relate to. You can't fake it."
Some of the most successful and memorable films and performances of Kher are Saaransh, Karma, Daddy, Lamhe, Darr, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Maine Gandhi Ko Nahin Maara, Khosla Ka Ghonsla, A Wednesday, Special 26, and Baby.
