Venkitesh VP, a lesser-known actor from Malayalam cinema became a sensation in Telugu even before his debut film Kingdom released.
Though he had only acted in a few small Malayalam films he landed a golden chance to play the main villain in this Telugu movie and made the most of it.
Before the film’s release, his performance impressed the team and lead actor Vijay Devarakonda publicly praised him.
However it was Venkitesh’s energetic pre-release speech that truly grabbed attention. With confidence and boldness, he asked audiences to clap during his entry scene, a daring request that paid off.
When Kingdom hit screens audiences responded with whistles and cheers during his entry. His performance in key scenes, especially in the second half stood out for its intensity and subtlety.
Many felt he deserved more screen time and hope to see him again in a sequel.
He was the best actor and stole the scenes with his acting.@venkitesh_vp
Glad to see @ActorSatyaDev and @TheDeverakonda get some nice performances and a movie.#Kingdompic.twitter.com/GAOosZ4Lbl
