Siddharth Nigam on World Theatre Day
On the occasion of World Theatre Day, Siddharth reflected on how theatre has played a significant role in shaping both his craft and his personality, especially through his recent play Ek Radha. Having started performing at a very young age, he shared that while acting has always been a part of his life, theatre brings a depth of learning that stands apart from other mediums.
“I started really young, so for me, performing has always been a part of life. But theatre specifically has played a very important role. It teaches you things that no camera or set can teach like being present, being honest in the moment, and holding the audience’s attention without any cuts. As an actor, it makes you sharper and more real. And as a person, it keeps you grounded. Because no matter how much you achieve, when you step on stage, it’s just you and your craft… nothing else matters. That’s something that has really stayed with me,” says Siddharth.
Siddharth plays the pivotal role opposite Gulki Joshi. Interestingly, the play is written by Gulki's father and has the backdrop of love growing between inter-faith and communal enimty.
On his work front
For Siddharth, theatre continues to be a powerful space of learning, one that constantly pushes him to be more present, authentic, and connected. His experience with Ek Radha further reflects his growing engagement with live performance and storytelling.
