Sometimes he will let you do what you want to do and sometimes he will tell you what he wants whether you like it or not. I hope it is a revelation for the audience and the industry. This one is especially so because there is so much I have done in this film. For me, all my characters, including the ones in Danger and Subramaniapuram are very, very close to my heart. When it flops, they tend to ignore it even in their own careers. When a film becomes a hit, people become close to the film. Would this role remain close to your heart as it is hard to get a role like this in Telugu cinema today?ĭefinitely. But I had co-stars like Bharani garu and Vikram Gokhaleji. We were working non-stop and for long schedules. It was a lot of hard, physical work. That's why it was demanding. It was demanding because this is not an extremely big budget film. How exciting or demanding was role of Shreya for you as an actor?

But Satish garu said it will break the character because Shreya doesn't know how to sing. It's beautiful watching such tough ragas going in one single lengthy shot. We all wanted long shots and not small bits. I would sit, learn and then go for my shot. I asked them to give me the songs two-three days before so that I could learn them totally and go to the location. Unfortunately the songs weren't ready. I would get them only that morning. More than me making an effort during the acting process, it was when I was doing the ragas scenes that I really concentrated. How did you cope with the music, especially the musical scenes?

All of us are bubbly and cheerful when we are happy and we get serious when something regarding our family happens. I'm sure any girl will relate to Shreya's role. Every girl has a little bit of everything. I did not do any homework for the film because it's a regular normal city girl and a responsible one at that. I remember asking Satish garu if I had to do anything.

How did you get into the skin of the character? You play quite a chirpy character in the first half and in the second half, there is a lot of seriousness involved. It was difficult then because you don't have that atmosphere to cry and to sync it exactly with your lips, that little sniff, that intake of breath - that's when it hits you. But when I was dubbing, I realised what I had done. It did not emotionally drain me while I was shooting. The fact that I could do so many things in Shreya's role impressed me. Were you emotionally drained at the end of it? You had to show a kaleidoscope of emotions. The role of Shreya in Kalavaramaye Madilo was an exacting one. When I saw Hope, I realised there is hope because the heavy intense emotion was very subtly handled. He previewed Hope for my parents, Kamal (Kamaraju), me and everybody. He gave a call and then narrated the line. I remember meeting him later and he said he had seen Ashta Chamma five times, he loved the film and he has a script for me. He introduced himself to me, watched the movie, praised me and left. After the morning show, the word spread and a lot of people whom I didn't invite turned up. When Subramaniapuram released, I had a preview in the morning and evening in Hyderabad. Had you watched Satish's Hope earlier? Did you know him? I am not a fan of heroine-centric films or hero-centric films. People have seen the bubbly side of me in Ashta Chamma and the serious side in Subramaniapuram but Kalavaramaye Madilo was a neat blend of the two. I had been hearing a lot of scripts after Ashta Chamma and Kalavaramaye Madilo was packaged in a very interesting way.

Was it the script of Kalavaramaye Madilo that made you sign the film? Radhika Rajamani caught up with Swati to talk about her fabulous act in the film. Actress Swati has bowled everyone over with her outstanding performance in National award winning director Satish Kasetty's Telugu film Kalavaramaye Madilo, which released last week.
