Ronit Roy says he started a security agency due to hunger and poverty: ‘I was written off by the industry’ | Bollywood-OxBig News Network

What Ronit said

During the conversation, when Ronit asked what led him to start a security agency, he said it was not because he wanted to diversify his interests. He said, “I am a honest kind of guy, I can only tell you the way it was. It was (the result of) hunger, poverty. Every great step that I have taken in my life has come out of desperation, frustration, and poverty. There was a time when my debut film was a silver jubilee, and after that I didn’t get any work. I have no idea why. I got frustrated. I got no work. I got so scared. I had rent to pay, I had to feed myself. What would you do with no money? So I kind of signed the wrong films, and they flopped. Then I went back to square one and had no work.”

‘My life went into gutter’

He went on to add, “My alcoholism started out of that frustration. After that everything went south. My life went into gutter. Somehow the alcohol would come… I would wake up at 3’o clock and then have hangover, it just made things worse. I was written off by the industry, they said he is finished. Then a friend of mine, he said that my name and face still holds value. He had a security agency, I used to go to his office to understand, to get trained and that’s where it started from. It started from a place of ab kya kare (What to do now)?”

On the work front, Ronit was last seen in Farrey. The heist thriller film directed by Soumendra Padhi also stars Alizeh Agnihotri, Sahil Mehta, Zeyn Shaw, Prasanna Bisht, Juhi Babbar and Shilpa Shukla. It is an official remake of the 2017 Thai film Bad Genius.
