On the occasion of Pan India movie Record Break coming to the audience on March 8th, hero Nihir Kapoor interacted with the media and revealed many things about the movie. Answering media questions on this occasion.
What was your feeling when this film approached you and what was the reason for accepting this film?
Earlier I had done Gangster Ganga Raju. In the context of making that movie, Chadalavada Srinivasa Rao said that you have done very well and and there is story for you which is suitable for you. Hearing the story, I felt very excited and agreed to do it. Apart from being a hero, I agree with this story because the characterization is very good.
What will your character be like?
Two orphans grow up in the forest. We are twins. We learned wrestling from the forest, came to the city for competions and went to WWE at the international level.
How is this going to be different from commercial films like Dangal in the past with similar stories?
This is also a commercial movie. There is no comparison with Dangal. In all these other movies wrestling matches are detailed. In this, the journey of two orphans goes to the international level by practicing the wrestling matches and it will be a commercial movie with sentimental, emotional and all mixed together. All the elements are there like good mother sentiment, songs and fights are there in the movie.
It is being released worldwide, how is this concept relevant to the present generation?
In this we are showing WW competitions. If you watch the movie, you will understand how the transformation takes place from wrestling matches to WWE. In places like Rajasthan and Haryana, there are more wrestling competitions, and North people make more movies on that detailing. But in our film there will be other elements besides wrestling matches. It is a Telugu movie but every Indian will be proud after watching it. A film like this should not stop with Telugu. That is why we are releasing the film worldwide in eight languages.
How are you going to promote in other languages?
Recently, we went Kannada and Chennai to promote there. The response in Kannada has been very good. Similar stories are seen more in Mumbai too and there is also a very good response. We are also promoting Next in Malayalam and Odia.
Chadalavada Srinivasa Rao took a long gap after the first movie and directed this movie? How was his direction?
He has a passion for movies. He wants to tell people this story. He makes films that have a social subject and a social concept. This is such a good concept. It is a completely a patriotic movie.
If a director like Chadalavada Srinivasa Rao is making this film, what is new in this film to watch?
Action sequences are done by Joshua and every action episode done by him is very new. Chadalavada Srinivasa Rao’s experience and vision as well as Joshua’s action sequences are a plus for the movie. Similarly, characterizations are shown more than the heroism in this movie.
What was your mother Jayasudha’s reaction after seeing the trailer?
After watching the trailer, she also watched the movie some and gave a very good response. I am waiting to see what she will say after watching the full movie again. But my mom liked the trailer a lot. Mom was busy and I heard the story and after that she said that you have taken a unique concept and appreciated it a lot.
Will you be doing films continuously from now on?
I will definitely continue to do more films.
You have studied direction course, is there a chance to do direction in future?
I will definitely do the direction but there is some time for that. I have written Scripts and I am trying for both OTT and feature film. I will definitely do it if the time is all set.
Thank You.
