✦ This ‘Ustad’ is a movie that was made OK after listening to the story during the movie ‘Matthuvadalara’. But the shooting got delayed due to reasons like delay. That’s why now all my films are releasing consecutively.
✦ Director Fanideep has designed the characters well. I will be seen in the role of a young man named Surya. Out of the four films I have done so far, this will run on my character. Emotions are also high. A movie that gave satisfaction as an actor.
✦ We call an expert in a task ‘Ustad’. It is an Urdu word. Guru is also called Ustad. Coming to this movie, the hero can control his emotions with a bike. A lot of things happen in a hero’s life because of a bike. That’s why the hero calls his bike Ustad. In the movie, the hero gets angry a lot. There is no goal in life. This is the story of how such a person fell on the right path with a bike.
✦ In this film, I will be seen as a college boy who thinks about what to do in life after that. I lost weight by doing exercises and taking a special diet while playing the role of a college boy. For another role, I grew a beard and hair.
✦ Gautham Vasudev Menon played a very important role. The audience likes his role very much. He will be seen in the role of a senior pilot who looks down on the juniors. His acting gave a new look to the character. Apart from that, our director is a big fan of him.
✦ Appearing in a character with three variations felt challenging. Because age should make a difference in body language.
✦ Choosing good stories is up to me. It is a good thing to do films with different variations in the beginning of the career. Rajamouli gives suggestions and advice about the films I do. Everyone in the house, including father and grandfather, share their thoughts. If I have any doubts about the script selections, I ask Karthikeya and Bhairavanna.
✦ We took Kavya Kalyan Ram as the heroine before the release of Masooda. She played the role of a confusing girl who is not clear about what she wants.
