“The idea of making this film struck our minds during Bigg Boss. One of the tasks required me to play a mad man and Om Prakash sir was floored by my acting. He told me right there that he’d make a film with me as soon as we wrap the show. I didn’t know he was actually serious. I’m thrilled,” says Keerthi. This isn’t his first outing in movies, though. “I have directed and also made appearances in some films. Understandably, nobody would’ve given me a lead role, but this film will see me playing a pucca local boy. So, acting chops is what matters here,” he says.
