Kannada actor Nagabhushana is currently managing two aspects of his career - one as a lead actor and the other as a character or supporting actor. Starting in the Kannada film industry was challenging, as he had to prove his talent before significant opportunities came his way. He took on small roles with dedication until he found success. Nagabhushana attributes his career milestones to the successes of his films "Ikkat" and "Badava Rascal." These hits propelled his career forward, emphasizing the importance of a film's commercial success in an actor's growth. Last year, he was part of three hit films, showcasing his versatility in both supporting and lead roles. Embracing the distinction between being seen as a comedian or as an actor performing comedy, Nagabhushana values the latter for its creative possibilities. He enjoys infusing his own touch into roles, delivering lines naturally while also being open to following directors' instructions when necessary.For neither myself nor others did I work on the film. It is crucial for us to know when to act and when not to act. For example, in Badava Rascal, I simply had to portray myself, whereas in Ikkat, a more exaggerated acting style was required. My focus is now on my upcoming film, Vidyapati. As the lead in this big-budget project, I feel the weight of responsibility but am also confident in the story's entertainment value. Additionally, I have a supporting role in Anna From Mexico that will showcase a different side of my abilities. I am grateful for all the busyness in my life, especially since my recent wedding. As a bachelor, I had freedom, but now I appreciate having someone waiting for me at home when I finish work.
