Prasanna turns villain in Telugu

Actor Prasanna has a spate of films at different stages of production. While the actor is awaiting the release of Dhanush’s Power Paandi, he has signed his second Telugu film, which will be helmed by BVS Ravi. Speaking to DC from the set of the yet-to-be-titled film, Prasanna says, “Director BVS met me in Chennai and narrated the film. He saw the recent pictures of mine and felt that my toned physique would suit the character perfectly. I play a posh villain in the movie which has Sai Dharam Tej as the hero. It is a potential role for me to perform.” The Anjaathey actor has started shooting for the film a couple of days ago.

“It is a friendly atmosphere on the sets as we have cinematographer Guhan cranking the camera and SS Thaman composing the music. My character in this commercial venture will definitely be one of my best roles. BVS Ravi has shown a lot of trust in me and I am trying to make him proud,” he shares. Talking about his physical transformation, Prasanna reveals, “It was a conscious break for two years and I started working out. I felt that rather than approaching directors for a film, I would give them something to look out for. And it worked out; I’ve got a lot of offers. I still have 30 days of shoot pending for Mysskin’s Thupparivalan and 12 days of shoot left for Thiruttu Payale 2,” he concludes. Prasanna is awaiting the release of Kaalakoothu and Nibunan.
