Yashashri Masurkar
In the hustle and bustle of adulthood, responsibilities often tether us to a continuous cycle of work, leaving little room for the carefree joys of summer breaks that we relished as children. Actress Yashashri Masurkar echoes the sentiment of many, expressing a longing for the days of ‘Garmi ki chuttiyan’ and the freedom they represented. The Nostalgia of Summer Breaks Yashashri reminisces about the unbridled freedom of childhood summers, a stark contrast to adult life where needs and wants bind us. “As adults, we savour brief summer getaways, but they pale in comparison to the extensive vacations of our youth. Our adult lives are governed by bills, responsibilities, and the demands of our employers,” she shares. The Importance of Taking Breaks Despite the constraints of adulthood, Yashashri advocates for the importance of taking breaks. “In our high-stress world, it’s crucial to pause and recharge. Regardless of your profession, your mind deserves a respite. A break not only rejuvenates but also reignites your motivation to work,” she advises. Yashashri’s Approach to Breaks Yashashri practices what she preaches by incorporating monthly breaks into her schedule. These vary from travelling to simply engaging in a beloved hobby. “I don’t have the luxury of […]

In the ever-evolving world of entertainment, social media has become a powerful tool for actors and celebrities to connect with their fans. However, actress Yashashri Masurkar believes that this trend needs a reevaluation. She advocates for a shift in focus from social media followers to genuine acting talent. The Superficiality of Social Media Fame Yashashri asserts that social media fame is often fleeting—a mere “fad.” While it may grant temporary attention, it lacks the substance associated with true fame. Being the “flavour of the month” on platforms like Instagram or Twitter doesn’t necessarily translate to lasting recognition. In her view, actors should not be solely judged based on their online presence. Decoupling Fame and Success The correlation between fame and success isn’t as straightforward as it seems. Yashashri emphasizes that fame and professional achievements are not mutually dependent. An actor’s talent can resonate with audiences even if they don’t achieve widespread fame. Conversely, being famous doesn’t guarantee project success. She cites the example of Shah Rukh Khan, who faced box-office disappointments but remained an iconic figure. Character Names vs. Real Identity On television, some actors become synonymous with their character names. Yashashri acknowledges that this form of fame isn’t wasted—it […]
