KING on the Lukkhe effect

KING may be stepping into acting for the first time with Prime Video’s upcoming Original series Lukkhe, but the experience has already travelled far beyond the set

Ahead of the show’s global premiere, KING reveals how the experience has reshaped his approach to live concerts, helping him deliver more seamless, immersive experiences both on stage and on screen.

Talking about marking his acting debut with Lukkhe and what it taught him, KING shares, “When you are performing at a live concert, there is no room for error. And in case a mistake happens, we need to act fast and rectify it while still entertaining the people witnessing the show live. It’s a very different ballgame altogether. But when you are acting, you get to solve and correct your mistakes 5-6 times in one shot, thanks to different camera angles.”

He further adds, “Being a very imaginative person, I could understand and figure out the different angles, different takes, and the choreography I needed to perform for a shot to make it look natural and smooth. The practice and choreography I absorbed really helped me in live shows. In a live concert, when you are holding a mic and moving to certain places, it’s about how you move, where the cameras are placed, and how to make those transitions seamless. It’s all about practice and how you can make your show immersive, both live and digitally. I have rage when I am on stage, but this new learning has given me command on stage.”
