00:00Why don't we speak a little about our friend over here?
00:02Devendu.
00:03Devendu, tell me, you've done such amazing work.
00:06Starting with your work in Mirzapur, which is well received in the South.
00:11Especially for your character, your swag, the gangstanness it displays and your Gali.
00:19And the Gali's.
00:20Why is he a gentleman?
00:22He is a gentleman, sir.
00:23He's not on screen.
00:25He's a gentleman.
00:26That's the character you play.
00:28Did you see that love?
00:29Did you see that love in the South when you came?
00:31So, yes, I mean, you were one of the first people who told me that it's very big in Mirzapur.
00:38And because we were shooting the cricket sequence, where there was a lot of crowd as well.
00:45And the crowd, when I came for the first time onto the ground, I saw them reacting to me a
00:51certain way.
00:52That they know me.
00:53Yeah.
00:54Like going a little.
00:55Yeah.
00:56And you know, what I really like is that down South, Hyderabad especially, they are really open with their feelings.
01:02They will show you that love us from you and you.
01:06So, I started doing it.
01:08I thought, sir, take it back.
01:09Kind of own you.
01:10Yeah.
01:10How do you know in my family?
01:12Then you told me that Mirzapur is very big.
01:16But it's just amazing.
01:19I mean, languages change.
01:21So, your songs are also iconic in the coining room.
01:25I have heard that dubbing artists have given him a little more notch-up.
01:31But how do you find this character and working with Piddhi?
01:35Sir, for me, this whole story started.
01:39When I got to know that there was a film called Piddhi-Nam, which I am.
01:44And I was directing it.
01:46And I was directing it.
01:47And at that time, I was shooting somewhere on the ground.
01:49And they were like, get it, get it, get it, get it.
01:51It's very important.
01:52And I said, I'll go to a week or ten days later.
01:55I said, no, I'll get it now.
01:56So, I finished my shoot,
01:58and left it from one day,
01:59and left it from the mountains,
02:01and left it from the mountains,
02:01and left it from the mountains,
02:03and the mountains from the Jubilee Hills.
02:06And I met Buchi Babu.
02:08And, sir, I immediately fell in love with the guy.
02:12Because he got so much in my heart.
02:15He's so warm and so gentle.
02:17And he just met me like a true artist.
02:20Being a director without any baggage.
02:23And he, and he's so sweet.
02:25He was showing me my scenes from my series to me only.
02:28On the screen.
02:29And he's telling me, sir, see,
02:32how well you have done this.
02:33He's asking me.
02:34And I'm also saying, okay, if you say so,
02:36I agree, I agree with you.
02:38But, sir, at that time,
02:39I didn't know much about the story.
02:41I didn't know about the character.
02:42I didn't know much about the character.
02:44But I felt like to meet him,
02:46that this person who will say,
02:47I will do it.
02:48Because I met many days later,
02:50an artist with whom,
02:52who doesn't mean anything.
02:53He wants to make a film.
02:55He wants to play a character.
02:57And he wants to play me for that.
02:58But his want was simple.
03:01You brought in,
03:02I've seen all your scenes.
03:03And I think the class with which you performed,
03:06it brought in the nuances of a zamindar's kid.
03:10And the swag you had,
03:12it's a subtle swag.
03:13It's from a village ka swag.
03:14It's not like a city swag.
03:15It is so subtle.
03:16It is so powerful.
03:17You have displayed that command on the screen.
03:21And it is attracting and pulling audience to you on the screen,
03:25when you see them.
03:26Coming from you. Thank you.
