\u201cHe spoke about me\u2026 and hugged me. I can never forget that moment\u201d \u2013 \u2018Thimmarajupalli TV\u2019 actor Lathish<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

It\u2019s known that the film \u2018Thimmarajupalli TV\u2019 turned out to be a good success. With this movie, Kiran Abbavaram introduced nearly 50 artists and technicians to the screen. Actor Lathish, who played the villain Siddaiah in the film, earned good recognition. Talking about this first success of his, he shared his happiness. Here\u2019s what he said..<\/span><\/p>\n

Tell us about your family background?<\/span><\/p>\n

Mine is an agriculture-based, underprivileged family from Nagari. There were days we even stole salt to eat. My parents and elder brother worked hard to educate us. When I entered films, my brother stopped talking to me. But after watching this movie and my performance in it, he spoke to me. Among those who always stood by me in this journey, my sister Chamundeshwari and brother-in-law Koteshwara Rao come first.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Tell us about your cinema journey?<\/span><\/p>\n

I worked in Bengaluru for a few days. I came to Hyderabad in 2017. Since then, I tried to act in films. Everyone said my acting was good. But no one gave me a chance. I worked as an associate director for Mahipal Reddy garu for the film ‘ Poster ‘. Then came a gap due to Corona. During that time, I directed and acted in a short film on YouTube. After that, I worked again in the direction department.<\/span><\/p>\n

What challenges did you face in this journey?<\/span><\/p>\n

I faced many hardships while making the short film. At that time, I had to ask my family for money to buy a camera. No one came forward to invest and produce it either. I didn\u2019t have membership in any association. I got that story registered under another director. Even the producer asked me for money. Later, I took training under Dr. Shaik John Bashir garu.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Tell us about your journey at B Studio?<\/span><\/p>\n

At B Studio, they asked for One Lakh rupees for personal training. I asked dejectedly, \u201cIs acting only for those who have money?\u201d Immediately, seeing my commitment, they gave me training for free without taking a single rupee from me. I performed dozens of plays there. While I was doing those plays, the associate directors of \u2018Thimmarajupalli TV\u2019 saw me. They auditioned all of us right there.<\/span><\/p>\n

How did it feel to act as a villain?<\/span><\/p>\n

In the past, those who acted as villains later became big heroes. When I was told it was a villain role, all those stars came to my mind. A villain is just as important to a film as the hero. For this movie, I gained weight. I gained a full thirty kilos. I worked really hard to fit the role of Siddaiah. When people who watched the film ask, \u201cWas that really you?\u201d, I feel so happy and content.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Tell us about the appreciation you received from the industry?<\/span><\/p>\n

After watching the film, Kiran Abbavaram anna appreciated the entire team. Especially, he praised Pradeep anna and me a lot. \u201cYou\u2019re so silent outside\u2026 how did you appear like that on screen?\u201d he was surprised. \u201cYou did wonderfully,\u201d Kiran anna complimented. Naresh Agastya garu also praised me a lot. My Bashir sir too appreciated me greatly. Bashir sir was happy that four of his students acted in the same film. After going to the institute, he spoke about me and hugged me. I can never forget that moment.<\/span><\/p>\n

What are your current projects and what are you doing now?<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019m working part-time at B Studio. I\u2019m getting calls from many people. I\u2019m listening to a lot of stories. But nothing has been finalized yet. It looks like everything will fall into place soon.<\/span><\/p>\n
