He also wants him to not succumb to the world’s expectations of him. Read the full letter here!
His post read, ”Dear 20-year-old me, There you are making your mark in this new world as an actor… Let me be honest, you are going to face some brutal rejections. Shy and unconventional, you will try your hardest to fit in but fail…spectacularly! People’s criticism and doubts will be hard, it’ll make your question your dreams. You will fail more than you will succeed. But, spoiler alert, it’s all going to be worth it… because one day slowly but surely, you’ll realize, being yourself can be your greatest strength. So, stumble a little but don’t stop. Keep pushing the boundaries and don’t let the world’s expectations turn into your inhibitions. Always be true, always be your! P.S Learn how to dance, it’ll help you in the long run. Love, Am older, wiser & better looking at you”.
