Sapthami makes her Bollywood debut in Kannada film

Sapthami
  • Sapthami Gowda was last seen in Kantara (2022).
  • The actor is currently shooting for The Vaccine War in Hyderabad.
  • Anupam Kher and Nana Patekar starrer will be directed by Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri.

Actor Sapthami Gowda, recently seen in the movie Kantara (2022), is now filming in Hyderabad for the upcoming movie The Vaccine War, directed by Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri. Gowda, who is eager to break into the Hindi cinema industry with the movie starring Anupam Kher and Nana Patekar, says, “Vivek sir watched Kantara and spoke to Rishab Shetty (Kantara’s director and actor), sir. He said that I would be ideal for a character in his upcoming work. Vivek sir phoned me and offered the position after Rishab sir provided him my contact information. “I’ll be pleased if you’d be a part of this picture,” he remarked. I jumped on board right away. After learning more about my character, a script was shortly delivered to me. I made my Bollywood debut in an instant.

Despite the fact that this is the actor’s third film and her first in Hindi, she doesn’t view herself as someone who wants to settle down in Bollywood. “I am happy to participate in any initiative that appeals to me. But my top objective is finding Kannada cinema projects, which I do constantly. The language is good. The actor adds, “I have also signed a Kannada movie called Kaali.

The 26-year-old, who is making her Bollywood debut, adds that she began filming on January 15 and that thus far, it has been a wonderful trip full of learning. She also discusses the significance of her character. The movie doesn’t have any main characters. The language gap is unavoidable, but I’ve been making progress. Although I believe any character is challenging to play, my character is a little challenging. If you find a character to be simple to play, I think you’re not doing something correctly. I’m having a great time shooting, and it’s a wonderful character,” the actor says.

Gowda claims she is figuring out how to overcome the difficulty of speaking another language. “Vivek sir has been a huge help to me in nailing my lines and accent. He advised me that I could study the lines in either Kannada or English as long as the sentiments were clear. The feeling a line conveys is more important than the actual line itself. My eyes must speak louder than my dialogue, he remarked, and that has stuck with me. He’s been really helpful, she says.
