Nagarjuna: Devadas Is An Amazing Combination of Magic and Reality

Being in the industry for more than three decades, Nagarjuna has no regrets for what he has done so far. According to the veteran actor, “It will be better if you are happy and do not worry much about works.” At the age of 59, he still has a young and free mind of a 25-year-old man. Some even suggest him making friends with young people. “In a certain aspect, my son Naga Chaitanya is even older than me as he always giving me advice about things.”, said Nagarjuna. Somehow it is the reason of his eternal alluring characteristic which keeps aspiring following generation. In addition to that, his fitness is still a mystery when the actor is turning into 60. However, he does not care much about people comments around it.

An Exciting Role

There is no doubt that it is a challenge for the younger actors to overcome his style and fitness which has become a symbol. There is a change in his acting career that he can feel clearly. Recently, he has been rotated between a variety of roles. In his coming up next film Brahmastra, directed by Ayan Mukerji and Dhanush, Nagarjuna will be in charge of a key role along with other stars.

It Does Not Mean Multi-starrer Will Save A Film From Being Flop

In addition to that, the actor refuses the belief that multi-starters will decrease the risks when it comes to the box office. “The more stars a film casts, the more pressure it gets. People will expect more when you see a lot of big stars on the poster. If it does not meet their expectation, they will say that it booms.” He continues, “For me to say, making a film is somehow working on a startup. Everyone works hard together with a common belief, follows the director’s vision to achieve a big goal.

The truth, however, is that most startups fail. Films are in the same cases. It is a wrong notion that an interesting film will be successful in box office. I learned a lesson from Chandralekha, a film I made in the ‘90s that I had never thought it would be a flop. Sadly it did. It was unable to continue within the first week.” “Sometimes it does not work even when you did it best and there is no clear explanation. However, just continue trying hard, focus on your mission and you will get what you deserve someday.”, he concludes.  

Nani Can Conquer The Balance Between Romantic And Realistic Film

Back to the Devadas, Nagarjuna reveals that it was the first time that he had the chance to work with Nani. “I heard about his name in some films but didn’t know him in person. As you may know, I am not interested in raw and realistic films. However, Nani surprised me by balancing realistic and magic elements in his films. If we need a word to describe this guy, it must be amazing!”. Devadas had a good start at the box office and went beyond the team’s expectation thanks to the great vision of director Sriram Aditya. “The whole team worked together and hold a strong belief that the film will be a blockbuster as the drama and the script convey the vibe of Rajkumar Hirani.

Recently, Nagarjuna has joined a TV show which centered on the life of VP Menon. He is well known as the assistant of Sardar Vallabhai Patel, who played an important role in the India Unification. Nagarjuna was strongly impressed by the character and script but refused to share it around due to the obligation with the producer.
