Ananth Ram, who debuted as the younger brother of Hip Hop Aadhi in the latter’s directorial venture, Meesaya Murukku, has now bagged a movie as a solo lead in Telugu. With no filmy background, it was Ananth’s dream to make it big in tinsel town. But he says he prepped well to learn the aspects of acting. “Right from school, I was active in dramatics. Then after completing a degree in Viscom from Loyola Collage, I took up a course in acting at Alchemy. I am a fitness freak as well — when I got a role with lot of action-packed sequences in Meesaya Murukku, my joy was boundless.”
Talking about Aadhi he says, “He is a very positive person. He always tells us not to give up and be focused. He is one person who wants talented youngsters to come up in their career and life.” Ananth says he is a great fan of Vivekh. “I grew watching Vivekh sir’s comedy on TV channels. The first day when I met him, I was awe of him and could not believe that I would share screen space with him in my debut film itself. He is a true inspiration to others. He would keep the entire sets in splits with his hilarious antics all the time.” Though many offers have came in K’town after MM, Ananth has been roped in for a Telugu film as the male lead with Janardhan Maharishi helming the affairs.
