Dear members,

Could you please tell me if my chart is suited for acting profession. I'm getting a few offers but I'm not sure whether I should be taking them up. Even if I do, will I be able to make a steady career out of it?
I have acted in a few short films etc, and have been told that I have screen presence. But, I'm cautious.
Please guide me.

Acting career will start after last week of December, 2012, and you will be successful in this profession.

Hi shreya,

Acting career can be there, but will be unstable and prone to trouble. I am not discouraging you, but better keep a 2nd option open.

hi Shreya,

You may not get along very well with directors and producers. There may be continuous ups and downs. Payment can get stuck from time to time.

Swamykool - You are right, sir. I've had a problem with authority figures all through my life. Even my career hasn't been smooth at all, lots of unnecessary breaks.

Shreya,

Yeah, thats why I said keep a 2nd option handy, so that you don't land in deep water if things don't work out.
Best of luck.

Dear members,
Just wanted to let you know that I just got an offer yesterday, to take part in a music video. Although it's a very small production, yet I'm thinking of taking it up.
Please pray for me.
Warm regards
