You need to have control over your emotions and not to get carried away with the role that you are playing. Make sure that you act within the given role and do justice to it. In order to make an impact on the audience, you need to express yourself in a desired manner. Never over react to a situation that could make the audience lose interest over the story.

In such a scenario, your mental preparation is all that can help you in fitting perfectly to a particular role. You need to feel the character from inside and only then is it possible to give justice to that role.
