Telugu actor Sudheer Babu’s upcoming action thriller, Harom Hara, directed by Gnanasagar Dwaraka, is set to hit screens on June 14. Sudheer, excited about the film, believes it will bring a fresh perspective to Telugu cinema.
A Unique Action Drama
Harom Hara is predominantly an action drama, covering various genres including romance. Sudheer highlights the film’s honesty in its script and the uniqueness of its backdrop, which is new to Telugu and Indian cinema. The protagonist, a gun-maker, offers a fresh narrative layer, with intriguing dialogues and a compelling conflict between the hero and the antagonist.
Mature Love Story
The film also features a mature love story. The relationship between the hero and the heroine is depicted differently from typical commercial films, with the girl’s character being as strong as the hero’s. This adds depth and relatability to the narrative.
Sudheer Babu’s Selective Approach to Films
Sudheer has been selective with his projects, preferring quality scripts over quantity. He mentions that he’d rather sit at home than work on a film that doesn’t excite him. This selective approach has helped him showcase his range as an actor, leading to directors writing stories with him in mind.
Journey from Business to Acting
Coming from a business family, Sudheer’s initial career path was not in acting. However, his love for films led him to pursue acting, despite his family’s different industry background. His passion for cinema eventually convinced his family of his talent, providing him the confidence to pursue his acting career seriously.
Challenges and Struggles
Despite being the brother-in-law of Telugu superstar Mahesh Babu, Sudheer faced his share of challenges. He believed it would be easier to get film offers but soon realized the industry’s demands. He chose not to leverage his family connections and relied on his talent to build his career, a principle he continues to uphold.
Dealing with Box Office Failures
Failures have been part of Sudheer’s journey, but he uses them as motivation to work harder. He believes in the importance of loving what you do, which helps in overcoming setbacks and continuing to improve as an actor.
Bollywood and Future Plans
Sudheer’s entry into Bollywood with Baaghi was unexpected but rewarding. He didn’t actively pursue Bollywood initially, focusing more on Telugu cinema. However, with changing times and increased interest in South cinema, he now plans to release future projects simultaneously in multiple languages, including Hindi.
Dream of a Pan-Indian Film
Sudheer aims to work on pan-Indian films, emphasizing the importance of choosing the right project. He understands that making a strong first impression is crucial for future opportunities in the broader Indian film market.
Working with Mahesh Babu
Sudheer expresses his desire to work with Mahesh Babu, not just because of their familial relationship but due to Mahesh’s talent as an actor. He believes that collaborating with good actors enhances the experience for everyone involved.
Sudheer has exciting projects lined up, including a Hindi film set to start shooting in August and a Telugu film titled Maa Nanna Superhero. He enjoys working with newcomers, appreciating the energy and healthy environment they bring to the set. This approach aligns with his long-term vision of supporting and growing alongside emerging talent in the industry.
