about

Alex Bhat

  • I've been a professional actor for 19 years, with periods of time where I haven't had to work a day job, but many, many more where I have.
  • I've worked in pubs, sold flowers door-to-door and delivered celebrities their awards ceremony clothes during the pandemic.
  • I'm coming up on my 1000th rejection.
  • I'm tired of this industry making us feel like we don't belong in it.
