Antony Varghese on shouldering Daveed as lead actor
His immediate release will be Daveed, which has him playing a bouncer turned professional boxer. On shouldering a movie on his own, the actor says, “It comes with its set of challenges. If a few films that you are part of, don’t work at the box office, the number of producers backing your films will naturally come down, the budgets decrease and it affects us as well as the filmmakers who trust us in several ways. Movies like Daveed might not even get made. I am now part of this because of the success of films like RDX and my previous projects.”
The actor is hopeful that Daveed works and consequently, it helps the makers of his next movies – in terms of increasing the scale as well as budget. “So, I am aware of that pressure and I think every actor is cognisant of that. That’s why they want their movies to do well, while also wanting the other films that release along with it to succeed. Because ultimately, everyone puts in a lot of effort and time into making movies,” he said.
