Nagarjuna Confirms Doing Brahmastra, Says It’s Impressive

0

Nagarjunas career is going great guns. While his new Telugu film, to be directed by newcomer Sriram Adittya, is on the floors, Nagarjuna has taken off to Europe for a ten-day shooting of his first Hindi film in 15 years.

Before his departure, Nagarjuna said: “Yes, I am doing Brahmastra. It is my first Hindi film in a very long time. I can’t remember when was the last time I did a Hindi film. I think it was Mahesh Bhatt’s Zakhm.”

Reminded that his last Hindi film was J.P. Dutta’s LOC Kargil in 2003, the actor’s memory is nimbly nudged.

“Oh yes, LOC. But that was a brief role, though a lot of fun to do. Zakhm was my last full-fledged role in a Hindi film. I still remember Alia Bhatt as a child on Bhatt saab’s set. Now I am working with her in Brahmastra. How time flies.”

Nagarjuna is looking forward to working with the entire Brahmastra team.

“Except Amitji (Amitabh Bachchan) with whom I’ve worked in Khuda Gawah, they are all new to me. I’m working for the first time with Karan Johar, (director) Ayan Mukherjee, Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor.”

The actor, who has in the past shone in Hindi films like Angaaray, Criminal and Zakhm, sounds a bit surprised at being offered a major Hindi film at this stage of his career.

“My career in Andhra keeps me busy. I’ve not shown any inclination to do a Hindi film, though I’m open to doing films in any language if the set-up is good. Brahmastra was impressive from the moment it came to me. I said ‘yes’ immediately and now here I am on my way to shoot for it. I am looking forward to it.”

Asked about his role, he said: “I am not supposed to say much. To be honest, I’m not very sure of the extent of my role. But it’s a pivotal part. And they probably thought of me because the role suits my personality.”

Nagarjuna set to enter ‘Munnabhai…’ territory

0

After Ram Gopal Varma’s “Officer” that opens next week, actor Nagarjuna is already on to his next project a big light-hearted comedy with which the veteran star says he enters the Munnabhai-territory.

“This new film that I am doing with Nani is very much in the Raj Kumar Hirani territory. I play a gangster and Nani plays my doctor. It is a very warm-hearted funny script. And I’ve a feeling director Sriram Adittya will make something special out of it,” says Nag, who has no problem doing two-hero films with younger actors.

“I’ve never in my career felt threatened by the presence of any other actor. Earlier I was mostly doing solo-hero films in Telugu because that was what was offered to me.

“Recently these two-hero projects have come which I enjoy doing. I enjoyed working with Karthi in ‘Oopiri’. I am sure working with Nani will be a lot of fun,” says Nag who looks forward to working with his sons Nag Chaitanya and Akhil.

There has been an announcement that Nagarjuna would be working with Priyadarshan in a biopic “Makkar the Lion Of The Arabian Sea”, based on the exploits of the 16th century naval explorer Kunjali Marakkar-IV.

However Nag dismisses these reports as premature. “I was approached but I need to hear the script before I say ‘yes’. I will be hearing it June end. At the moment I am only doing the film with Nani.”

Nag feels no pressure at this stage to work non-stop. “I’ve to be happy with the work I am doing. And to be happy the role has to be challenging. And for the role to be challenging it has to be something I haven’t done before.”

RGV Akhil movie used as a bait to sell Officer

0

King Nagarjuna teamed up with Ram Gopal Varma after years with Officer which carried low buzz right from day one. The teasers and the trailer failed to attract the audience and the film lacked interesting business offers. It is during this time, a film in the combo of Akhil and Ram Gopal Varma has been announced saying that Nag is extremely impressed with the way Officer has been shaping up. This film turned out to be a trap for Officer as the makers sold the film citing to offer Akhil’s film if they fail to recover the investments.

Officer released last Friday and has been declared as the biggest disaster of Telugu cinema. The buyers are left shattered and will end up recovering zero from their investments. One of the film’s buyers spoke to Telugu360 saying that he was cheated completely. “I was in plans to produce a small budget film and it is during this time, RGV’s close aides took me to JD Chakravarthy’s office and forced me to buy Officer. They even offered me Akhil – RGV’s film if I don’t recover my investments. Though I was not impressed with the teasers and the trailer, I was forced to buy the film. Now they are out of reach and I am asked to pay the QUBE charges for the film. Suicide is the only option left for me” confessed the distributor.

Officer lacked buyers and RGV’s team managed to sell the movie during the last hours citing Akhil’s film which is a huge trap. Nagarjuna has been staying calm and away from the business of Officer right from the first day. Ram Gopal Varma has been badly criticized for his work and is unavailable as of now.
