Powerstar Pawan Kalyan who infrequently interacts with the media channels has given a more sophisticated interview to well-known Film critic Anupama Chopra on the occassion of Shiva Rathri.
This particular interview is soon going to be uploaded on the You Tube channel of Anupama’s named Film Companion. Even so, we right here brought a handful of excerpts from that interview.
“I am an accidental actor. I actually wanted to be a farmer.”
“I say so many big lines in films.Then how come I don’t follow through in real life? This bothered me. Choked me.”
“My entering politics was because I wanted to find my voice in real life as well.”
“Films is not everything. Life is bigger than films.”
“In real life we all have shades of grey but I cannot play a bad guy. I don’t think I am such a good actor.”
“I keep reaching out to everyone for inputs but very difficult to get an honest opinion.”
“During the lull people thought I was not working hard but that is not true.”
“It is so tiring 2 make an Indian film.We want everything & that 2 in the right proportion.I go crazy.”
“When I am not shooting, I read like a beast & grow my bread.”
“I deeply care about the law & order situation. I want it to become better.”
“I used to drive myself crazy thinking why can’t I be a normal star? Why do I have to think this way? But I am wired this way.”
“I am focusing on films right now because I have to do films to sustain myself. But in a few yrs I will give it up.”
“Politics is like a Pandora’s box. I cannot stop listening to my inner voice. Once I get into politics, I will leave films.”
“When I leave acting, I will continue to write. I enjoy writing.”
“Do your duty and disappear is my mantra! I don’t think about anything beyond that.”
