Siddharth has proven successful as he starred in over 14 films including his forthcoming release ‘180’. Since he works his fair share in the love genre, he is often seen playing the lover boy kind of roles. However, the actor wants you to know that there is more to him than just that he’s not just one note. Here is what Siddharth has to say about his latest film ‘180’ which is directed by his mentor Jayendra. Some excerpts are:
One will see the taste of an experienced technician in ‘180’:
“To begin with, ‘180’ with a tagline ‘Vayasika Raadu’ was directed by Jayendra who directed atleast 500 ad films. This is his debut feature film as director. Jayendra is known to me right from my childhood and he is the one who prompted me to enter the movie industry. I consider him as my godfather. He wanted to do a film according my taste. One can see the taste of an experienced technician in ‘180’. His efforts are clearly seen in the film. When he gave the written script and asked me to read it, I then understood this movie would certainly be useful in my career. Hence I decided to do the film. There is a philosophy in it which attracted me a lot. My father used to say not to think of tomorrow, instead think of today and work hard.”
I never attempted to do films this way:
“I felt the title was justified when I read the script in the beginning. One character is very prominent in this film. Those who watched the trailer have asked if mine was a dual role. Of all my films, this is the only film which I’ve acted in two languages at a time. I’ve never attempted to do films in this way. But going by the script I felt it would be the right choice to act in two languages, so I went ahead. ‘180’ is going to release on June 25th. The film made a very good business since it was made in two languages simultaneously. I did this film with tension free. The director crafted the urban love story in which you will see my matured performance.”
‘180’ is about a man’s philosophy:
Director Jayendra portrayed the philosophy of a person in a very sophisticated manner. There is philosophy in the songs as well. He filmed how a life of a person can be beautiful. We planned the film completely before taking it on to the sets, hence it took such a long time to complete the film. We had a wonderful experience while shooting for the film in overseas. It gave us the native feel. The film was made with the latest technology and it was shot with Red One camera. Therefore the cameraman had good opportunity to capture scenes in various angles.
I did lot of experiments with films this year:
This is the aptly suitable role for my age. The movie appeared fresh when I saw it recently. It is quite different from that of my previous films. This year I did films in different genres without sticking to routine ones. But still the success and failure is not in our hands. However, I’m very happy to say that I did lot of experiments in that way. Many have appreciated the trailers post their release. They have opined that the trailers appeared unique with latest technology being on par with Hollywood flicks. I’m eagerly waiting for the film’s release and to see the youth’s reaction. The director narrated the story in a classy way.
180 will take me to the next level:
‘180’ would certainly reach the expectations of the Telugu audience. As an actor, I’m completely satisfied with the film’s output. The romantic scenes have come out very well since the film has two heroines. Music is yet another highlight of the film. It will play a vital role in the film’s success. Music director has got good command in music. He has come up to this level from a very small level. My guru Jayendra has got resemblance of Maniratnam garu. To conclude, this movie will definitely take me to the next level as an actor.
