LISTEN TO YOUR HEART; IF ANYTHING GOES BAD, STRIVE HARD ENOUGH TO MAKE IT WORK; ALWAYS PURSUE YOUR DREAMS - ACTOR SATYADEV SHOWS THE WAY TO REALISING DREAMS
Rajeshwari Kalyanam
DRIVEN BY SELF

Being able to follow your dreams is indeed the first step to realising them. Actor Satyadev left behind a successful IT career to pursue a career in films. With each film he is growing from strength to strength, and has been garnering critical acclaim for his nuanced performances; the latest to add to his filmography is 'Godse' directed by his partner in the hit film 'Bluff Master', Gopi Ganesh. "Every one of the Fridays that my films released contributed to my rise and journey," he states.

Satyadev relates, "One of the reasons I did the film is because of Gopi. I also relate to the subject. 95% of people study something and do something totally unrelated to what they study. Most youth do not have a destination. With this film we raise this issue again."

He further adds, "I, myself know so many of my friends who studied chemical or mechanical engineering and ended up working in IT. There are so many graduates working as delivery boys. I totally relate and agree to the premise of the story that we must question. I was excited to act in this film, but wondered if I could do justice. Gopi felt I would be great for the role. Perhaps this is the first film with such intense performance as the angry hero."

Even though 'Godse' has a negative reference, Satyadev thinks it is the perfect title for the film. "From the time Gopi Anna wrote the story the name of the character was Godse. Because, there is a strong connection. In a childhood episode when he is asked to act as Godse in a play - he thinks a lot to even shoot with a plastic pistol. He says he won't kill - 'I love Mahatma.' How this kids grows to become the gun-wielding vigilante.
