Dia Mirza Opens Up On Her 'Hardest Time', Reveals No Filmmaker Approached Her For 2 Years
Dia Mirza says she started her production house in 2010 because she was 'tired of waiting' for the kind of roles she wanted to do.

Dia Mirza is currently promoting her movie Dhak Dhak. The film which also stars Sanjana Sanghi, Fatima Sana Shaikh and Ratna Pathak Shah in key roles released in theatres on Friday, October 13. During a recent interview, Dia Mirza opened up on the ‘hardest time’ in her life and revealed she was not approached by even a single filmmaker for two long years. Talking about why she was never a part of the ‘rat race’, Dia mentioned that she started her production house in 2010 because she was ‘tired of waiting’ for the kind of roles she wanted to do.

“I decided to create that opportunity for myself, and those around me who I believed had the talent and the intent to deliver. And almost everyone who was a part of that film has gone on to do such wonderful things with their lives as actors and are just beautiful people. And I think that was also a time when I realised that I needed to stop limiting my growth by focusing on the outcome of the business. So I just have to work on my craft and myself. And I have to seek opportunities that I can be my best version of,” Dia told India Today.

Dia revealed that there were times when she waited for ‘six months or eight months’ to hear from a filmmaker. “I remember my longest wait was two years. Two years, I didn’t hear from a single filmmaker, and it was possibly the hardest time of my life. But I filled those two years with so much life,” she revealed but added, “I did so many things. I travelled and spent time with different communities. I learned different crafts. I spend time with family. I picked up hobbies. I grew.”

However, Dia also mentioned that she understands if one is an actor, “you sign up for a lifetime of waiting. Basically, if you are a creative person, you sign up for this.”
