How did ‘Month of Madhu’ begin?
I did Bhanumati & Ramakrishna with director Srikanth Nagoti. This movie got very good name. After this movie he also got some projects. Although we are thinking of doing another film together, I am already busy with many films and web series. When I asked him what he was doing next, he said that he wanted two stories. I liked the month of Madhu very much. I thought it would be good if I did such a role. I immediately said ok without another thought. That’s how this movie started.
What will be your role in this?
In this I will be seen in a role that is very close to nature. My character name is Madhusudhana Rao. During his school days, his friends looked up to him as a hero. But after the passage of time, they go into someone’s life. Madhu remains in the same state of mind. He gets addicted to drugs and cigarettes. There is no need to work under someone. He has no hope for money. He has no goal. Does not take any responsibility. Since childhood everyone looks at him with a hero image and he stays in that image.
We observe that the people around give the buildup that one person lacks. We come across characters in real life who think the same is true and stay in it. Madhu’s role in this is also similar. I chose this movie because I liked the story. ‘Month of Madhu is a very special movie.
