“I got a good name in ‘Arundathi’. That was my initial success. Later I acted in ‘Panchamugi’ and that movie was a failure. But ‘Baahubali’ fetched me a better name. Now I am happy as the same has happened with ‘Rudhramadevi’. I have worked a lot for this movie.

I have acted for close to three years and for this movie, I was forced to learn the art of Sword Fighting, Horse riding and so on. Every day it will take some three hours for makeup. I sat on an elephant for 5 hours amidst the sun and heat. I have side effects when I watch smoke. But for few weeks I acted inside it and I suffered a lot. I am happy that now all my hard work is rewarded.”
