00:00He is a very knowledgeable person.
00:02He is not aware of his history.
00:06He is not aware of the way he is directing.
00:12So, he is asking, your dad knows quite a lot about it.
00:15Why didn't you ask him to direct rather than this director?
00:18Okay.
00:19See, I don't think my father is a director.
00:21Okay, but every actor believes, you know, at least I might be wrong,
00:26but every actor believes they can be a director.
00:28But we would be probably good at directing a shot or believing that, you know,
00:33giving a little bit of inputs to the director.
00:36But people like my father, if he becomes a director,
00:40the actors would be probably beaten up every day.
00:44So, that's the reason why, you know, that's the reason why.
00:48Jokes apart, you know, I don't think my father ever had the mindset to direct.
00:53Dad is famous for losing his temper.
00:55So, what was Mohan Babu Gauru's first reaction when you have taken Akshay Ji in control of Lord Shibak?
01:03So, he was very supportive right from the beginning.
01:06What he said was, will he accept it?
01:08Okay.
01:09I said, I want to try it out.
01:12He is a fine actor. He shouldn't have a problem.
01:15Should I call up somebody and ask him?
01:17I said, no, no, I'll try it on my own.
01:19I'll go through the right channels.
01:21Let me just reach out to him in the proper way.
01:23Previously, do you have any acquaintance with Akshay Ji?
01:26Not really.
01:27Not really.
01:28Not really.
01:29But one thing which my father told very clearly when I went to, you know, meet him.
01:36And once he accepted to do it, he said only one thing very clearly.
01:41You have to first give him respect when he comes on to the set.
01:47Okay.
01:48Okay?
01:49That's the way we respect everybody.
01:51Never go down on that.
01:52Second thing, make sure whatever you have agreed to give him.
01:57Okay?
01:58You give that to him as soon as he, you guys, on the dates you agree.
02:02Right?
02:03But I am grateful for Mr. Akshay Kumar also because there were times where I wasn't able to give the money on time.
02:08He never pushed me.
02:10No, I'm honest.
02:11No act of money.
02:12No, the thing is, he finished his dubbing.
02:15I'm going to be talking.
02:16Okay, let's go next.
02:18No, no.
02:19He finished his dubbing.
02:20Okay.
02:21You know, he finished acting there.
02:22He didn't even sign his agreement.
02:23And I said, no, sir, it's okay if you don't sign.
02:25I told him.
02:26On the last day of shooting, he said, no, it's not for you Vishnu.
02:29It's not for me.
02:30It's for you, you know, tomorrow.
02:31For you to be safeguarded.
02:32I'm signing this agreement and I'm sending it.
02:34He was very gracious.
02:35See, it's not the reason why I hold Mr. Akshay Kumar over here.
02:40It's not just because he's a phenomenal actor or he's a great actor.
02:43Not just that.
02:44For a human being what he is.
02:46Okay.
02:47You know, these things people have to talk because he'll never talk about it.
02:51Okay.
02:52You know, I was really, you know, touched by his gesture.
02:54You know, he didn't demand the entire money as soon as the shooting.
02:57Because I have only four or five days shooting Aipu Indi.
03:00Then you don't know whether he'll give the money or not or not.
03:04Then I sent the movie because he had to dub it because I had to edit it.
03:07And he dubbed it.
03:09He sent it.
03:10And, you know, I'm really grateful for him being accommodating also.
03:13Okay.
03:14But when, and by the way, he did say his Telugu lines.
03:17Oh.
03:18Oh, yeah.
03:19He spoke in Telugu.
03:20The Telugu version he spoke.
03:21Oh, okay, okay.
03:22Telugu version?
03:23Yeah, Telugu version.
03:24Dubbing?
03:25Not the dubbing.
03:26The on location when you have to mouth the dialogues.
03:28Oh, oh.
03:29Dialog, right.
03:30He used tech right now.
03:31The AI tech where it's your own voice which comes out to Telugu.
03:34Who gave voice in Telugu to…
03:36His own voice.
03:37Because, see, what happens is that today there's artificial intelligence.
03:39Technology.
03:40Technology.
03:41Yes, yes, yes.
03:42Replaced as…
03:43As far as the money is concerned, you are the good pay masters.
03:46You have a wonderful name in that aspect.
03:48You might have hold it just to continue his relationship.
03:51That might be the reason.
03:52No, even though I have his number, you know, every day I want to say and I'm excited to text him but I hold back saying that no, no, no.
03:59Let's just text him only on his movie releases or his birthday and let's respect that space.
04:04Shuguru, this is your first pan-Indian release in Hindi also.
04:08So, tell us more about the distribution and the release span of the film.
04:11So, I think, you know, that's for a later conversation but I'll just tell it in brief.
04:16It's being distributed in Hindi by the pen murder group, Mr. Jain Tilal Gada and everybody.
04:24And as of now, we are looking at opening up in 1800 screens.
04:28Oh.
04:29I just hope and pray it actually goes up because this is a story which has to be told.
04:34And the reason why I'm getting 1800 screens also is because I have the star power of Mr. Akshay Kumar.
04:40You know, otherwise, you know, I wouldn't find so many screens.
04:44And luckily for Kanappa, the distributors believe that it will resonate with, you know, the Hindi heartland also.
