I met PVP at gym and pitched the story of Kshanam. The cost of the film is around 1.1 crore rupees. Heard that Kshanam is made of 1 crore rupees budget? But I am proud to say that we stuck with the original form of storytelling and this film is not inspired by any other movie.

That idea scared me off. While driving through Whisper Valley in Hyderabad, I happened to see a few school going kids asking for a lift. If I go to streets, I am recognized by my work for Panja and Baahubali. If I go to coffee shops they recognise me by the work I had done for films like Run Raja Run and Dongata. What do public recognize you for when you go out? Dustin Hoffman is a wrong choice for Predator and Arnold Schwarzenegger is a wrong choice for The Graduate. Screen presence and body language should suit the character. I have realised the importance of right casting. I have put my efforts in right way and worked hard. You have done eight films so far (excluding a guest role in Size Zero) and Kshanam is your ninth film. Here is an exclusive interview with this promising actor. Made with a compact budget of 1.1 crore, Sesh’s latest film Kshanam has created right buzz prior to release. The movie, directed by Sashi Kiran Tikka, is based on life of 26/11 martyr Sandeep Unnikrishnan.Sesh Adivi who made his debut with Karma is slowing consolidating his position as an actor and as main lead with each movie. He adds, "And to go from such humble beginnings to today where I must have got around 50 messages from people speaking about how inspired they were by the legacy of the film, how it taught them to think differently, it humbles you to think that you have done something right."Īdivi is now gearing up for the release of his biographical drama 'Major', which is slated to release worldwide on May 27.
