I've seen an increasing willingness to hire Canadians for lead roles that shoot up here. When I started, they would always just fly in L.A. people to do the lead roles.

I have played lead roles, supporting roles and also miniscule roles in my career so far, and have never been image conscious.
Even when I was doing supporting roles, I always had this belief that one day the opportunity to play a lead would come my way.
If I can, I would like to do as many different roles in a year because then there is no stagnation. That used to happen when I played one role in a serial for years. When a show goes on for years and is delivering ratings, you didn't get the chance to take up other roles and shows.
There are quite some interesting roles. Just take my career for instance. I played a vivacious aerobics instructor in Porki.' In my Telugu debut Bava,' I played a lively girl from a village. In Udayan,' my Tamil debut, I played a soft spoken Brahmin girl.
Good roles are hard to come by, and whether they're a few lines or a lead, you snap 'em up when they come along.

I do like ensemble work. I would like to do a lead role, though. I didn't shy away from that. I'm desperately looking for a lead role to do in a film, an independent film, and it just hasn't come my way yet. I'm desperately looking for that role that will put me in a lead category. Or a television series.
I have never been of the opinion that I will only play the lead in a serial. For me, just the role needs to be good.
I'm a character actor and that's what I do. All the roles that I've had have been mainly support roles, because character actors don't usually get the lead in movies. It rarely happens.
In the serial 'Kutumb,' I play a psychopath.
I have stopped looking at roles as lead or parallel lead. Also, I feel these are very misleading terms.
Sometimes I try to sell shows with a female lead to networks, and that isn't something that's been a proven formula for them, so they reject it. I do feel like men get the funniest roles in movies.
I love drawing on lead. Romans used to curse each other with sheets of it. My slave would come slide the sheet under your door with a curse on it. They had amazing writing and drawings on them, and they survive to this day since lead is so stable.
When I played the lead actor, it was a stressful job right from the starting to the release of the film. I even used to put in money from my pocket for a few films. But once I accepted the negative role, filmmakers started writing different kinds of roles for me.
