Meanwhile,

recently
shared
his
biggest
fear
while
in
conversation
with
Gulte
and
stated,
“My
character’s
title
is
Naditu
Chakravarthy.
I
don’t
believe
I
am
a
great
actor.
There
is
always
a
percentage
of
the
audience
who
keep
telling
me
that
I
can’t
act.
There
will
be
some
criticism
I
keep
reading.
So
in
my
head,
am
I
not
good?
This
fear
is
there”.
