Natural Star Nani, talked to the media about Devadas. Talking about working with Nagarjuna, he said “I was afraid if me and Nag sir can bond over and deliver a good fun film as he is most senior to me. I am still in awe of him as a star hero I look up to but while working he doesn’t bring any attitude with him and we could gel on the first day, itself.”
How did he choose Sriram Adittya? Nani said, “We had a story with us from a long time. I was waiting for someone to improvise it and make it into an engaging screenplay. I came across trailers of Sriram’s films and decided to give him a chance. I gave him 40 days time and asked him to narrate the screenplay. He did come exactly after 40 days and even though I had no dates and did not want to do it so early, I got tempted by his narration and accepted the movie.”
He also talked about Bigg Boss show and said, “I am happy that it will be over as last three months have been hectic for me. I want to take rest and Bigg Boss experience opened my eyes. I could see how many people are ready to pull us down and I will be mindful of that.”
He said that he is taking cricket training every day for three hours a day and by the end of the film, Jersey, he will be well trained enough to take part in CCL. He praised Nag for being a gentleman and friendly. He hoped that the impression that Nag and family have him will last longer. Devadas is releasing on 27th September.
