Welcome back to another episode of Down & Dirty with Dr. T. and this time, we had the most introspective chat with Sidhaant Karnick.

Sidhaant Karnick is a versatile Indian actor who made his television debut as Arjun Khanna in the teen drama Remix. He gained widespread acclaim for his role as Rana Indravadhan Singh Deo in Ek Tha Raja Ek Thi Rani and added another feather to his cap with his portrayal of Varun Pratap Malhotra in the blockbuster film Animal.

Join Taapsi (Dr. T.) as she sits down with her old friend and takes a look at his daily life, his passion for biking, and how he stays grounded amidst the unpredictability of an actor's life. Sidhaant also shares his thoughts on the importance of introspection and how he uses YouTube Music to set the mood.

Highlights from the episode:

A day in the life of an actor: Sidhaant is not just an actor but a seeker in many realms. He shared that there is no average day in his life due to the ever-changing nature of an actor's schedule. From early morning badminton sessions to late-night movie marathons, Sidhaant’s days are filled with a variety of activities that keep him grounded and inspired. He also shared how he likes to take long rides on his motorcycle to help him hit 'neutral' after getting deeply involved in a character.

Seeking Self through various mediums: Throughout the conversation, it became evident that introspection is central to Sidhaant’s lifestyle. Whether it's through acting, biking, or manifesting goals on a whiteboard, he constantly seeks ways to better understand himself. He even participates in physically challenging activities like trekking or surfing annually to push his limits and return home more grounded and appreciative of life's comforts.

Music as an emotional anchor: Music plays a significant role in Sidhaant's life. He starts his mornings with soothing tunes from artists like Louis Armstrong or Norah Jones via Alexa. Depending on the activity—be it working out or preparing for a meeting—he uses music to set the right mood. Unlike others who might use music to tune out the world, Sidhaant uses it to enhance his focus and emotional state. He also shared how YouTube Music’s terrific and intuitive algorithm curates playlists that help him discover new sounds that resonate with his moods and inspire his creativity.
