Even as his debut
Telugu
film
‘Savyasachi’
opened to mixed reviews at the box-office, viewers and critics are raving the performance of R
Madhavan
as the antagonist. The versatile actor impresses in his limited portions and tries to rise above the sketchy character. In a recent interaction, the 48-year-old actor revealed that he is going to
dub
for himself in the Telugu version of his upcoming
biopic
on ISRO scientist
Nambi Narayanan
.
Titled
‘Rocketry The Nambi Effect’
, the inspiring film is co-directed by Madhavan along with Anant Mahadevan. The recently released teaser has garnered glowing praises from several film personalities and audience all across the globe.
On why he decided to play the negative role in ‘Savyasachi’, Madhavan stated that his introduction to the plot had him hooked. “The enthusiasm that I felt in
Andhra Pradesh &
Telangana when I went to finalise the Telugu version of my biopic on space scientist Nambi Narayan, made me sure that I am going to star in ‘Savyasachi’. I was told that I had no idea about my fan-following in Andhra. Now I do”, the ‘Tanu Weds Manu’ actor replied.
Though Madhavan learned the language for the Naga Chaitanya starrer, he wasn’t able to dub for his role. “I learned the language for my character in ‘Savyasachi’. But they had to dub my voice finally. But for the Nambi biopic, I will be speaking Telugu in my own voice.” He confirmed that he is open to doing more Telugu films in the future.
