Finally, Kishore finished his pre-college education with a good academic result. The core issue started in the family again. Kishore stood firm to proceed his career by enrolling into Viscom. Also proceeding with entry with all acting related courses like dance, martial arts, horse riding, etc.
Vivek became terrified hearing Kishore’s plan. Vivek was adamant that he wants him to enroll in engineering studies. Heated discussions crossed limits where Vivek started raising his hand against Kishore on this topic. I struggled to meddle between them to make them calm.
I intervened and tried to tame the situation by talking to them separately. Vivek brought out his very valid concern about the success/winning rate of an acting career. He worried that Kishore will spoil his life without success in this field. Vivek wanted to ensure Kishore gets well settled in some professional career.
I could deeply understand Vivek’s valid concern. I spent time with Kishore in explaining his brother’s concern and justification of why Vivek is adamant. On the other end, Kishore shared his justification. He insisted that one’s career decision should come from themselves and not forced by others.
He strongly argued that he has all the strong potential to become successful as an actor. For me, it became tough to convince both of them and bring them to a common ground. I told Kishore, “Kishore, I agree with all your points and ambition. I really want to support them.”
“But you need to understand that your brother’s concern is also valid. I and Vivek worry about you failing in your career. If you cannot succeed, your entire career/life is lost. You cannot start academics later. At the same time, I respect your opinion that career should be of your choice. But we need to settle in between which is win-win for you and also us. I have a plan, will you agree?”
Kishore: “What is it, Anni?”
Me: “Kishore, for everyone a career is important. I support your interest in movie acting career. But you need to have a backup career in the engineering field in case you fail in the movie field.”
Me: “So I would like to propose that you enroll engineering course and at the same time enroll in all other movie-related classes like acting, dancing. We as a family will support you. You just need to give up your idea of enrolling in Viscom course. You can do all the attempts to grab movie chance.”
Me: “ If you prove successful in an acting career, you can drop out engineering studies. We won’t have any issue there. In case if you don’t succeed in it, you should seriously pursue engineering. During the course of study, you should give your best towards academics and follow your heart with acting proposals. Does it sound like a good deal for you?”
Kishore settled down with the deal understanding the justification from both sides. I explained this decision to my hubby Vivek. Vivek was still very hesitant to agree with this decision. He was worried that Kishore may not keep his promise towards engineering academics.
I convinced that I will take care of monitoring his studies and ensure that Kishore focuses on his studies as well. I insisted that we need to trust Kishore and we need to make him feel confident. Vivek finally agreed to the plan.
Finally, we planned to move to Chennai.
