Sumeet Vyas
Though his big breakthrough moment was in English Vinglish (2012), Sumeet Vyas has had a tough road to success in the movies. Digitally, he became a star long before Netflix and Amazon entered the Indian market with their glossy shows. The awkward, boy-next-door in TVF's Permanent Roommates (2014) created for him a steady fan base, but it was eventually this year's Veere Di Wedding, which catapulted him into the big league, making everyone take notice of him. We met up with Vyas at a quaint Andheri cafe.
There was a flurry of quick hellos as he bumped into a few industry folks. Vicky Kaushal (who was having coffee at the next table) walked up to him to say he is a big fan. Not many know that Kaushal's delightful Netflix movie — Love Per Square Foot was written by Vyas. Ask him if the success of Veere Di Wedding changed the game for him, he says, "In a good way, yes, things are different. I won't say it changed my life, but it added to the roles I was being offered. Once there is a successful film, people take you more seriously. People are less afraid to put their money on me now."
