Q) How nervous are you about your debut film ?
I am very excited about my debut film and am eager to see how the audience will react to my performance.
Q) What made you decide to become a hero in such a young age ?
I had very clear plans and wanted to enter films only after six years from now. But when the director Raj Mudiraju approached me for this project and told me that I was the only choice for this role, I couldn’t say no to him.
Q) What was your dad’s reaction when you told him about this offer.
He was quite supportive and told me to go ahead with the project which would be a learning curve for me in the future.

I had a wonderful time working with her. Even though she is not from here, she learnt the language well and gave a splendid performance.
