Kannada actor Shree Mahadev, previously known as Shri Mahadev, has decided to change his name to Shree Ram. Explaining his decision, he shares, "People used to address me as either Shri or Mahadev, which is my father's name. Eventually, I shortened it to Shri, but some felt it was incomplete. Hence, I have now chosen to be known as Shree Ram." Currently, the actor is immersed in preparing for his role as a farmer in his upcoming film, Rukmini Vasantha. Rather than focusing on agricultural themes, the movie delves into the essence of love rooted in traditional culture. Shree Ram's preparation for the role involved spending a month in a village in Mandya, engaging in farming activities like milking cows, tilling the land, and even growing vegetables. This immersive experience was both challenging and fulfilling for the actor. Reflecting on his career, Shree Ram expresses a desire to push his boundaries as an actor by taking on roles that are different from his real-life persona.
