Actor R Madhavan whose De De Pyaar De 2 with Ajay Devgn is running in cinemas, has opened up about the intense anxiety he feels while arriving on a film set, admitting he is often gripped by the thought that “Madhavan khatam (I am over).” Speaking to Mirchi Plus, he said, “On the first day [on set], I feel like everyone is looking at me and thinking, ‘It’s over, Maddy is done,’ or ‘He can’t act anymore.’” He added that the feeling grows stronger with every project, noting, “I sometimes feel my assistants are watching and saying, ‘It’s time to bring someone else — he doesn’t know anything.’” Despite these fears, Madhavan continues to push himself creatively, acknowledging that self-doubt is something he battles frequently as he takes on new roles and responsibilities.
