Kannada actor Shri Mahadev, who last appeared in the film Just Pass, has officially changed his name to Shree Ram. Explaining the reason behind the name change, Shree stated that his original name Shri Mahadev was often shortened to Shri by people, but they felt it was incomplete. As a result, he decided to adopt the name Shree Ram. Currently, the actor is immersing himself in the life of a farmer for his upcoming role in the film Rukmini Vasantha. Rather than focusing on agricultural issues, the movie explores the essence of love deeply rooted in Indian culture. Shree Ram spent a month living in a village in Mandya to prepare for the role. This experience involved early mornings milking cows, tending to the land, and even growing vegetables, which he then brought home. Reflecting on his journey in the industry over the past six years, Shree Ram expressed his desire to take on challenging roles that push him beyond his comfort zone and allow him to showcase his acting skills.
