Sanjana Sanghi Shines on a Global Platform
Sanjana Sanghi, celebrated as the youngest Indian actor to deliver a keynote speech at the Summit of the Future, continues to advocate for youth empowerment and women’s leadership. Her recent participation at a Leadership Summit, alongside renowned filmmaker Nag Ashwin of Kalki 2898 AD fame, showcased her dedication to meaningful dialogue. The event was held at the Indian School of Business in Hyderabad.
The Debate: Authenticity or Popularity on Film Sets
During the summit, the duo was asked about the challenges of balancing authenticity with the lure of popularity in the entertainment industry. Sanjana candidly responded:
“I wouldn’t want to be popular at the cost of being authentic. I cannot even, while I am at any event, be someone I am not. If popularity is the byproduct of being authentic, then great—otherwise, just popularity on its own isn’t so satisfying.”
Echoing her sentiments, Nag Ashwin added:
“Completely agree with what Sanjana just said. For the most part, you want to be real even when you’re outside a film set. I don’t know what the choice is really, but yes—just be authentic!”
Inspiring Takeaways on Creative Leadership
The engaging discussion concluded with the audience applauding both Nag Ashwin and Sanjana Sanghi for their honest insights into balancing creative leadership with personal integrity. Their perspectives resonated with aspiring leaders and artists alike, leaving a lasting impression.
