Adil Hussain wins hearts with response to a netizen who asked him to 'promote his work'

As the Indian film industry is witnessing many changes in recent times, self-promotion of actors is now considered really important in the public domain for people to follow their films. But 'English Vinglish' actor Adil Hussain doesn't believe so. A user recently called Hussain an 'underrated actor' in India and requested him to promote his work so as to reach people. 

Hussain who was recently seen in Praksh Jha's drama Pareeksha on ZEE5 wrote, "Art is never wasted, if there is truth in it. I believe truth will always get its dues when the time is right. Paid Promotion always brings undue public focus. If my work, at all, falls in the realm of Art, it will get its deserved attention." [sic]

Another fan said, "Wonderful thoughts but in today's fake promotion activities are more than talent your fans should know your project's so they can enjoy it thoroughly... great actor." [sic] Hussain in response wrote that his work will speak for itself and people who are interested will find their way to his work.
