Kannada actor Shri Mahadev, known for his role in the film Just Pass, has decided to change his name to Shree Ram. Explaining the reason behind this decision, Shree shared that his original name, Shri Mahadev, was often shortened to Shri or Mahadev, which is his father's name. Feeling that 'Shri' was incomplete on its own, he has now adopted the name Shree Ram. Currently, the actor is preparing for his upcoming movie Rukmini Vasantha, where he plays a farmer. To better understand the role, Shree immersed himself in farm life by living in a village in Mandya for a month. His experience included milking cows, tilling the land, riding a bullock cart, and even growing vegetables. This hands-on experience left a lasting impact on him and he found it to be a rewarding endeavor. Reflecting on his career, Shree mentioned that after six years in the industry, he is now seeking roles that challenge him and push him beyond his comfort zone, allowing him to showcase his versatility as an actor.
