Actor Rahul Bose, who has carved a niche for himself through his unforgettable roles in Mr. and Mrs. Iyer and Japanese Wife, is set to make his debut in Kannada films through Apoorva Kasaravalli’s Niruttara .
Rahul will essay the lead role of a corporate executive opposite Bhavana in the film. Aindrita Ray and Kiran Srinivas play important roles in the movie.
Incidentally, Niruttara is the debut film of Apoorva Kasaravalli, son of national-award winning director Girish Kasaravalli. “I accepted the role because the movie is being directed by Apoorva, the son a legend of parallel cinema in India. When Apoorva approached me, I readily agreed, considering some things never go wrong,” says Rahul.
On a more serious note, he said he was convinced of Apoorva’s sensibility after going through the script.
On his foray into regional films, Rahul says, “I have never bothered about labels, whether it is Bollywood or regional. Though it is believed that acting in regional films is infra dig, I look for good stories, directors and scripts. Though money matters, I do some movies for my satisfaction. Niruttara is one among them. In fact, I am planning to dub myself.”
The film deals with the lives of four characters in an urban setting. “It explores the manner in which relationships change among the four characters in post-liberal society,” director Apoorva says.
