A stand-up comedian, mimicry artist and an actor Badava Gopi did so many achievements. Thiru K. Balachander, a veteran director, cast him in the 2005 film Poi, which marks the beginning of his film career. He has performed his comedy shows all over the world, and the show he created specifically for Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam has earned him numerous accolades. He has worked as an actor, frequently playing comedic supporting roles.
How did you start your career?
I was a software engineer but I had an interest in mimicry, so I started participating in many college events. I used to compete with colleges like MCC, Loyola, and Christ King College in Bangalore. I never dreamt of becoming an actor.
Every role you have played in movies so far is unique and versatile. How do you prepare yourself for the roles?
I observe and learn. Chances are really rare in the industry so I try to perform better in every role I get and that is how I can grow. For instance, I acted as a television journalist for Thodari (2016) for which I observed several television hosts and incorporated their body language into my performance. I always take on challenging roles so that I can perform as realistic as possible.
You are said to be Venkat Prabhu's go-to choice for comic roles. How did it all start?
It started during the Chennai 600028 movie, where I played a role as a commentator. Venkat Prabhu was not available and that scene was directed by his assistants. I did the commentary without any script and it went viral. It opened me a platform for commentary.
