I've done a host of Tamil and Telugu films, a Bengali one, too.
I speak Tamil and Telugu better than Bengali.
Commercial Bengali movies are all crass imitation of Telugu and Tamil movies. There are only a handful of directors like Rituparno Ghosh, Aparna Sen and Gautam Ghose who make quality films.
I have worked in Telugu films. I found Bengali easier and sweeter than Telugu.
I have done films in Tamil, Telugu, Kannada. I don't find any difference.
Telugu and Tamil industries keenly watch Malayalam movies and are appreciative of the content, be it 'Ustad Hotel,' 'Premam' or 'Bangalore Days.' They've also been listening to our music. That's how I was approached for Telugu films.
I am not really missing theatre as I get to act in films, that too in different languages, such as Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Marathi, my mother tongue.
I learnt to sing in Bengali, my mother tongue, then went on to sing in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Gujarati and every possible Indian language.
I have regional films, Bengali and Telugu, but always wanted to do a Marathi film especially because I think this industry makes the best comedy films.
I've acted in Hindi, English, Tamil and Telugu films.
Bollywood is a different ballgame. I am quite used to Tamil and Telugu films.
I have been watching all kind of films and I am a bit familiar with Kannada, Telugu and Tamil.
I am very happy that all my films are getting positive reports in both Telugu and Tamil.
In fact, my earliest films were in Tamil and Telugu and since then I have been acting in all languages.
Telugu is a lot like Kannada, so I don't have a problem with Telugu. But Tamil is very difficult to learn, man.
I'm obsessed with all things Bengali, man. I love fish, my maid is Bengali, I acted in Bengali and Bangladeshi films.
True, I was born and raised in Chennai, fluent in Tamil, but essentially, I am a Telugu guy and a Telugu actor.
