Birthday Boy Sharwanand is all set for his quarter century in filmdom. In a career spanning over a decade, Sharwa has done 24 films in Telugu, Tamil. Now the Gamyam star is prepping up for his 25th film. Buoyed with 3 hits (Run Raja Run, Malli Malli Idi Rani Roju and Express Raja) in a row, Sharwanand is very choosy about his 25th film.
Keeping it under wraps, Sharwa says, ” Presently three directors are working on the scripts. Whichever goes first depends on how they shape up. But am going to work with all three of them for sure.” Sharwa adds that Vijayawada MP Kesineni Nani’s brother Kesineni Chinni (Siva Naga Prasad) is going to produce his 25th film.
Ask him whether he increased his remuneration? Pat comes reply. “I haven’t asked or demanded any producer to increase my fee. They themselves increasing the pay considering that my previous films fared well at Box Office. I think it’s fair too.
At the same time, I always tell my producers to control the budget. I don’t want any producer or any distributor to lose money on my film,” reasons Sharwa. Is working with ace directors on cards? Sharwa says he’d love to act under top directors like Mani Ratnam, Rajamouli, Trivikram, Puri Jagannadh.
He admits he’s great fan of Puri’s trademark characterization of heroes. Sharwa also says he’d like to be part of thrillers, concept-based films which are catching up of late.
