Thousands of crores worth of property… yet choosing to play the hero in small-scale films? What’s the story behind this unusual choice?
Vikram Sahidev, the son of Telugu film producer Lagadapati Sridhar’s journey in cinema raises a question that’s hard to ignore; when financial security is seemingly not the motivation, what drives an actor to keep chasing the big screen?
From starting out as a child artist to stepping into lead roles, Vikram has taken a path that doesn’t necessarily follow the conventional route.
He shared the screen with Allu Arjun as a child artist in Rudhramadevi, Race Gurram, and Naa Peru Surya.
His latest film, Anakapalli, is a film with Vikram as solo hero; and there’s much more to his choices than what meets the eye.
In this candid conversation, Vikram opens up about his identity, his approach to acting, the thinking behind the films he chooses, and the journey that has brought him here.
But there are also a few revelations and moments in the interview that are best experienced rather than explained.
Why does someone with such a privileged background continue to pursue acting on his own terms? What really matters to him when choosing a film?
