On day two of its series of Golden Apricot talks, Tumo hosted Ken Davitian, best known for his role as producer Azamat in the movie Borat. Ken initially gave an interview to Tumo students answering questions about his life, inspirations and lessons he has learned from past experiences. This was followed by a question and answer session with an audience in which he spoke about topics ranging from his current projects, his 40 years of experience in the acting industry and his successes and failures.

 

Ken stated that his favorite role to date was that of Azamat, as it shot him to fame and opened doors in Hollywood for him overnight. He spoke of the importance of sticking to your dreams and working hard for them, by explaining that he would go to auditions fully in character for the role for which he was auditioning. Tumo students even asked for an opportunity to work with him on future projects to which he responded with big smile: "anything is possible."
