Nagabhushana, a Kannada actor, is currently managing two aspects of his career - one as a lead actor and the other as a supporting or character actor. He reflects on his journey, emphasizing the importance of success in the film industry. According to him, the success of a film is crucial for an actor's growth, regardless of their performance. He credits the turning points in his career to successful films like Ikkat and Badava Rascal. The confidence gained from these hits fuels his passion for engaging audiences in various roles. Nagabhushana also discusses his approach to comedy in films, preferring to infuse his own touch while respecting the script. He believes that showcasing versatility as an actor who does comedy offers more opportunities for performance than being solely labeled as a comedian.For me, it was not about them, nor did I work on the film. Understanding when to act and when not to act is important for us. For example, the character in "Badava Rascal" simply required me to be myself, whereas in "Ikkat," a more exaggerated performance was necessary. My focus is now on my next film, "Vidyapati," where I play the lead role. This project is significant to me as it is a high-budget film, and the responsibility as the lead actor makes me nervous, yet I am confident in the story's ability to entertain. Additionally, I have a supporting role in "Anna From Mexico," which allows me to showcase different aspects of my acting skills. I am grateful for being busy lately, as I haven't had a day off in a month. This is a contrast to my bachelor days when I could come and go as I pleased, whereas now, I have someone waiting for me at home, which I appreciate after getting married earlier this year.
