In conversation with Tellychakkar.com, Divyanka Tripathi shares five cool acting tips for those who love the shutterbugs and look up to her work.

Divyanka, who is ruling television as Ishita in Yeh Hai Mohabbatein, is one of the best actresses in town. The pretty lady’s tips will definitely help you grow as an actor and also improve your chances of landing a great role! Go ahead, take a look:

Always be real and feel it:

If you try to pretend to be sad, it's an effort. If you are actually sad, it comes out in your acting well. Do not try to act like the character, instead, be the character.

Reactions are as important as actions:

Facial expressions are important and combining them with vocal responses is also significant.

The character sketch:

To understand your character better, you need to always have a detailed character analysis of the role you are enacting.

Work on your look:

Things like dress, makeup and hair style make you look the part. So the look should be taken care of…in order to appear convincing.

Chemistry with co-actors:

However big or small, their reactions are equally important. So instead of trying to compete with each other, one must support and work in coordination as the end motive is to come out with a good serial or movie, after all.
