Vancouver actor says he's unique in Hollywood








Sanjay Madhav

Indian actor, Sanjay Madhav, is a very sought after man these days. He has appeared on General Hospital, and now he has film and TV offers rolling in.


Madhav was born in London, but grew up in Vancouver, Canada, which is where his acting career began. He lived in the suburb of Burnaby where Michael J. Fox grew up. He later moved to LA when Hollywood came knocking on his door.



"I resisted the move for some time," says Madhav, "I wasn't sure the crossover would be that smooth, and that made me nervous. I've seen others before me go that route and fail."



He added, "But it has all worked out so well that I keep wishing I had made the move sooner, when Hollywood types first started calling me."



Madhav appears to be well on his way to TV and film success. He has a multi-ethnic look that is hard to pin point, but he now credits this to his appeal.



"I'm different from what you typically find in Hollywood. I look different, act different, and sound different," he remarked.



Madhav has commented that he struggled as a minority actor in Canada, but now Hollywood is yearning for someone 'different', and this has garnered him lots of attention.



Madhav said, "In fact, I don't see anyone in this town [Hollywood] like me. How many people in Hollywood can say that"
