Hero Kiran Abbavaram’s career is no less than a film script. He comes from a small village without even a cinema theatre. His love story with films, his tryst with film writing, acting and the way he made his way into the hearts of the audience is a fairy tale with its fair share of struggles and hardships. Today with back-to-back shootings, not a day goes by without he being on the sets which he says is what gives him happiness. With his next big film— Geeta Arts’ Vinaro Bhagyamu Vishnu Katha’ ready for release, and a bunch of other big banner films in his kitty Kiran says he is all set to enter the second phase of his career.
The Beginning
Acting happened out of the blue. I was coming out of a theatre after watching a film, when I met Girish, my super senior. He told me he was making a short film and wanted to cast me in it. During those days there was a boom for short films. And, I too used to watch a lot of them. I agreed to shoot for it. It was all very exciting, to make the film, and watch the preview at Prasad Labs. I felt this was what I wanted to do in my life.
I quit my job to work in films. My parents wouldn’t understand. For them it was a big thing that I was working and earning good salary. They were planning for my marriage.
I only told them about my decision when Rajavaru Rani Varu’ was ready for release. It was released in 2019, November. And, the audience loved me.
