He won accolades for his acting skills in his debut Telugu film Baanam . Now, he is gearing up to impress the audience with his second movie Solo which is slated for release in a few days.
Having born in a family that is active in politics, Nara Rohit opted to make a career in film industry. “Films are my passion and the liking for movies started very early in my life. In fact, my father prompted me to make a career in films during my +2 days,” informs Mr. Rohit.
“I always keep track of politics by reading newspapers. As of now, I am focusing on my film career and can't rule out possibilities of venturing into politics in the future,” he says while sporting a smile.
Though he has experience of working in just one film, Rohit has immense knowledge about films and the industry. “I attended training classes in acting and filmmaking in the United States. Apart from acting, I am keen on film production,” he informs.
Perhaps the training in US helped Rohit to evolve as an actor and he desires to play the character of Duryodhana. “I am very much influenced with the character of Duryodhana because of the legendary actor Nandamuri Tarakarama Rao. If the story is good, I don't mind playing a negative character,” he declares.
Between his debut movie Baanam and the next movie Solo there is a gap of almost three years. “I was supposed to do movies with Gowtham Menon and Sreenu Vaitla but things did not work out. I heard over 100 stories and finally picked up Parasuram's Solo ,” he explains. The film's audio was released by his uncle and former Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu in the city.
Pursuing engineering in Chennai has helped him a lot as he can speak Tamil fluently and was offered a few movies in Tamil as well. “Ace filmmaker Shanker's assistant director and Paneer Selvam offered me movies before Banam but I was focused in doing Telugu movies,” he reasons.
