Nagabhushana, a Kannada actor, is currently juggling two aspects of his career - one where he plays leading roles and the other where he takes on character or supporting roles. He reflects on his journey, emphasizing the importance of film success in the industry. His career took a significant turn with the success of two films, "Ikkat" and "Badava Rascal," which marked a pivotal moment in his growth. The actor stresses that while good acting is essential, a film's commercial success is crucial for career advancement. Recent successes in films like "Daredevil Musthafa," "Kousalya Supraja Rama," and "Tagaru Palya" have bolstered his confidence, showcasing his ability to engage audiences. Nagabhushana discusses his approach to comedy roles, opting to be seen as an actor who excels in comedic parts rather than simply a comedian. He values adding his personal touch to characters and dialogue delivery for a more authentic performance.Neither for me nor for others, acting in the film did not work out. It is crucial for us to discern when to make a move and when to hold back. For example, in Badava Rascal, I simply had to be myself as the character required nothing more; whereas in Ikkat, a more exaggerated performance was necessary. My full focus is now on my upcoming film, Vidyapati, where I once again play the lead role. This project holds great importance for me, being a high-budget production with significant expectations riding on my performance, which does make me a bit anxious. However, I believe in the story and am confident that it will entertain audiences with its surprising elements. Additionally, I am also portraying a supporting role in Anna From Mexico, which will allow me to showcase a different side of my acting abilities. Recently, I have found myself extremely occupied, and I am appreciative of this busy schedule. After not having a day off in a month, I am grateful for the demanding workload, especially following my wedding earlier in the year. As a bachelor, I had the freedom to come and go as I pleased, but now, I am mindful to return home promptly after work, knowing that someone is eagerly awaiting my arrival.
