Udhay Karthik, a fervent actor in the Tamil film industry, has embarked on an exhilarating cinematic journey that consistently mesmerises audiences. From his memorable cameo in 'Pachaikili Muthucharam' to his compelling roles across diverse films, Karthik has persistently showcased his boundless versatility and unwavering dedication to the art of acting. His latest success, 'Dinosaurs,' not only sent shockwaves through the industry. Here's Udhay in conversation with Team Provoke.
How has life changed for you after the success of 'Dinosaurs'?
Following the remarkable success of "Dinosaurs," I feel elated and grateful. The extraordinary reviews and warm reception from the audience have been incredibly rewarding. I'm sincerely thankful to my producer and director for this incredible journey.
Your family has a cinema-based background Did you always want to be in the cinema field or did you have other ambitions?
Actually, my family initially wanted me to pursue a more conventional path. They insisted I become an engineer, but my passion lay in tennis. I even represented Tamil Nadu in under-16 tennis. I wanted to join Loyola and pursue tennis professionally. However, my parents insisted on engineering, and I later went to the UK for my MBA. Acting wasn't part of the plan initially, but I had a desire to explore the world of cinema. During my MBA break in India, I met Gautham Menon, and that connection led to my foray into acting.
