Despite the financial situation I was in towards the end of 2013, I made my television debut on BBC's Sherlock. My role was that of an Indian detective during a press conference in 'Mumbai'. We actually shot the scene in Treforest Industrial Estate, Wales. It was there that I met the Hobbit's Martin Freeman when we lined up for lunch. It was unfortunate that I did not film a scene with him. Prior to rehearsing, I met a gorgeous blonde actress. I was standing there with a group of Chinese students who were asked to play Buddhist monks. She came up to me and asked me the question something along the lines of "do you know where the coffee table is?". I pointed her to the table and she ended up walking towards it. I had a feeling she already knew where it was so why was she asking me that? The other guys looked at me and just nodded their heads with disappointment. They told me that she seemed to be attracted to me but I was oblivious to this, I always am.
It was also at this point that I started working at a law firm. Having trained to be a lawyer, I might as well put my education to good use. The line of work that I was dealing with was not what I had imagined. It was depressing. Most of the cases involved reviewing medical records of deceased individuals. I was still not over the death of my mother so for me it was difficult to cope. We eventually agreed that it was not working out and I left the firm in the final quarter of 2014.
I had also worked on a popular television series Da Vinci's Demons. To be quite honest with you, I had never watched the show but I have had recurring roles on it. My first appearance was on Season 2 as a Turkish elite warrior training on a sand dune with 3 others. We had spent 3 days on set in Merthyr Mawr, again in Wales. It was an enjoyable experience.
In February 2014 I had visited the crossroads of the world, Istanbul with a old friend of mine. We only spent 3 days there but I loved exploring the historically rich city. I took my Canon camera and wanted to shoot some beautiful pictures of the Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque and the Bosphorus river - photos can be found on my instagram Youngsheezy. After leaving the law firm, I ended up going to Tunisia. It was my first time going to North Africa and I throughly enjoyed it. I explored some of the mosque's and visited the remains of the Roman Colosseum at El Djem.
Luckily for me when I got back, I had another 5 day shoot on Da Vinci's Demons filming a battle scene with the main cast. I made some good friend's and worked with the Action/Stunt team.
Well that's all I can write at present so stay tuned for another update.
