Nagabhushana, a Kannada actor, is currently navigating two aspects of his career - one as a lead actor and the other as a character or supporting actor. Recalling his early journey in the Kannada film industry, he emphasizes the need to showcase talent before significant opportunities arise. Initially taking up any role offered to him, Nagabhushana highlights the importance of film success in an actor's growth trajectory. Two pivotal moments in his career were marked by the success of his films "Ikkat" and "Badava Rascal," where he played the lead and an interesting character respectively, propelling his career forward. Reflecting on recent successes in films like "Daredevil Musthafa," "Kousalya Supraja Rama," and "Tagaru Palya," Nagabhushana credits these hits for boosting his confidence as an actor and engaging audiences. Choosing to be seen as an actor who performs comedy rather than just a comedian, he values adding his touch to roles for a natural delivery. While he respects directors' preferences for exact dialogue delivery, Nagabhushana emphasizes the importance of infusing authenticity into his performances.I have not worked on the film, either for myself or for others. It is important for us to discern when to take action and when to abstain. For example, in the movie "Badava Rascal," my role simply required me to be authentic, whereas in "Ikkat," I had to exaggerate a bit in my performance. Currently, all my focus is on my upcoming project, "Vidyapati," where I play the leading role. It's a significant undertaking for me, being a big-budget film with high expectations. Despite feeling the pressure, I am confident in the story and believe that it will entertain viewers with its surprises. Additionally, I have a supporting role in "Anna From Mexico," which allows me to explore a different dimension of my acting abilities. I am grateful for my busy schedule, having not had a day off in a month. This shift in dynamics, especially post-wedding, reminds me that someone now eagerly anticipates my return home after work, unlike in my bachelor days where I had more freedom.
