About the Book

Do you wake up dreaming of millions screaming your name? Do you fantasize about your face beaming down from hoardings? Do you practise your Oscar thank-you speech in your head? Or see yourself walking the red carpet at Cannes?

Is a career in showbiz what you aspire to above all else but are daunted by where to start? Are you clueless about who to meet and how to get your first break? Does the casting couch exist and how do you handle it? How do you keep getting work and become un-ignorable?

Tisca Chopra Acting Smart is the book you have been waiting for. Packed with nuts-and-bolts ideas, hilarious anecdotes as well as sharp advice from some of the biggest names in cinema actors, agents, film-makers and casting directors this is a not just a handbook on how to take on the challenges of the mercurial quicksand of show business, but also a look into the working of the creative maelstrom called the film industry.
About the Author: TISCA CHOPRA has been on stage since she was two years old, when the school where her parents taught couldn not find someone suitably young to play baby Lord Krishna. From that day on, she took to acting like a fish to water and performed all through school and college, finally arriving in Mumbai to follow her dream of being a professional actor. Having trained with theatre greats like Naseeruddin Shah and Feroz Abbas Khan, she got her big break in Aamir Khans Taare Zameen Par for which she won several national and international awards. She followed that up with Dil Toh Bachcha Hai Ji and Ankur Arora Murder Case. She has recently acted in the Indian franchise of the hit American series 24, produced by Anil Kapoor. Up next is a feature film Rahasya. She has also starred in the runaway stage hit Dinner with Friends. One of the most beautiful and stylish actresses of her generation, Tisca is often on best dressed lists and is a favourite with advertisers, having endorsed brands like Tanishq, Titan Eyewear, Olay, Horlicks and Kelloggs.

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
