Nikhil talks about untold stories. Nikhil, the versatile actor who has recently captivated audiences with films like "Karthikeya 2," "18 Pages," and "SPY," is now gearing up for an exciting array of projects, including "Swayambhu" and "India House." He's not just a skilled performer but also a storyteller with a passion for sharing India's rich culture and untold stories through his work. Speaking about this, he expressed, "There are so many mysteries and countless untold stories about India's culture that we can make 30 to 40 sequels. I believe that some of these stories need to be passed down to the next generation, much like the tales our grandmothers used to narrate. Our movies will be the medium to achieve that."
Nikhil also shed light on "Karthikeya 3," emphasizing his commitment to the genre, saying, "Yes, we recently announced it, but I believe this genre deserves even more sequels and more stories to be told."
Regarding his upcoming project "Swayambhu," Nikhil shared the rigorous preparation that has gone into it. He revealed, "The preparation has been intense. Typically, actors take about 20-25 days to prepare for a film, but we've been discussing 'Swayambhu' for the past five months. We're fine-tuning the script and ensuring that every actor is well-prepared, including horse riding and combat training. The heroine has been undergoing training, and I'm personally working on body conditioning to authentically portray a character set in 1010AD in South Central India. We're going all out to get the look and feel just right."
On the topic of politics, Nikhil shared his perspective, stating, "I believe politics is a demanding and often thankless job. No matter how good you are, there will always be critics. I am content and fulfilled as an actor because of the immense love and affection I receive from all corners. While I am a responsible citizen and will actively participate in the political process by voting, I do not intend to become a politician. I am devoted to my acting career and, with the grace of God, I intend to continue acting until the end of my days."
