Exclusive! Shwetha Srivatsav: I want to surprise my audience and myself with new characters

Shwetha Srivatsav, who is one of the most prominent actresses in Kannada film industry, made her debut with the movie, ‘Mukha Mukhi’ in 2006. The actress has worked in many successful movies like ‘Aa Dinagalu’, ‘Simple Agi Ondh Love Story’, ‘Fair & Lovely’, and ‘Kiragoorina Gayyaligalu’. Currently, she is looking forward to three movies.
Talking exclusively to ETimes about her upcoming projects, Shwetha Srivatsav said, “I entered the film industry only after marriage, and that itself was a revolutionary thing for me.This was not accepted before 10 years, it was extremely difficult. After having a baby, I am not going to compromise on everything. When I have the capacity to play the protagonist, I don't like to compromise even as a female and with my personal status.”
In her next movie ‘Rahadari’, she is playing a super cop role. “It's very challenging to play this role. The life of a super cop is very different, and her life will be very challenging and she should be facing politics, criminals and be fit. All these things disturb the lady, and she should be mentally and physically strong. There are no action, thrilling scenes in the movie, which is entertaining. With ‘Rahadari’ I am also acting in two more projects, and I am playing different roles in all three movies. I want to surprise my audience, and myself with new characters.” said Shwetha Srivatsav.
Elaborating more on the same, Shwetha added, “My character, story, and director matters a lot when I pick the movie. My character should be strong, and it should make some changes in society. In ‘Simple Agi Ondh Love Story’, I played a talkative girl, which had an impact on society. I would like to do all kinds of characters in my career. The people outside feel I only suit to play talkative characters, but I can do more with my acting. I am an artist, and I like to explore different roles in life.”
