"If an actor cannot fully immerse himself in a role, he should reconsider pursuing acting: JP Reddy"
Actor JP Reddy, also known as JP, is gearing up to share a compelling narrative that resonates with individuals who make the transition from rural areas to urban centers in pursuit of better educational opportunities. The upcoming film, Karki, is a notable milestone as it marks director Pavitran’s debut in Kannada cinema. Expressing his thoughts on the film, JP highlights the significant themes explored, including caste dynamics and the fundamental right to education. However, stepping into the character was no easy feat for JP. Initially hesitant about his ability to embody the role, he underwent a transformation process to authentically portray the character of a local boy, shedding weight and adapting his mannerisms accordingly. JP emphasizes the critical role of actors in immersing themselves in their characters, underscoring the necessity of embracing and embodying the roles they portray.
