Actor Darshan Watches Chikkanna-starrer Upadhyaksha, Lauds Makers
Darshan and Chikkanna share a close bond.
Darshan praised Chikkanna’s dance skills and offered his full support to the director of Upadhyaksha.
Actor Darshan, who is a prominent figure in the Kannada film industry and has a massive following of fans, recently watched his close friend Chikkanna’s film Upadhyaksha. However, he burst into laughter and even fell while watching it, as per reports.
After attending a special screening of Upadhyaksha, actor Darshan was impressed by the young actor’s performance. He expressed his satisfaction with the overall production and couldn’t help but burst into laughter during a particular scene. In this scene, a clip from Darshan’s movie Robertt is featured, where Darshan is seen in an intense fighting sequence, inspiring Chikkanna’s character in Upadhyaksha. However, the portrayal of this scene turns out to be comedic, which greatly amused Darshan. As a gesture of appreciation, the Challenging Star patted the young actor on the back, the reports added.
Darshan and Chikkanna share a close bond, which has been evident on multiple occasions. However, until recently, Darshan hadn’t watched the movie himself, much to the disappointment of fans.
Also, Darshan praised Chikkanna’s dance skills and offered his full support to the director, encouraging their filmmaking efforts. His words of appreciation have quickly spread across social media platforms.
Chikkanna kickstarted his acting journey in comedy shows in Mysore, starting with Drishya Kalavide. He later gained visibility through appearances on Comedy Kiladigalu on Zee Kannada and a Prank Show broadcasted on Udaya TV. His talent caught the attention of actor Yash during the diamond jubilee celebrations of Kannada cinema, leading to his casting in the 2011 film Kirataka.
Following this, he appeared in movies like Raja Huli (2013) and Adyaksha (2014) alongside Yash and Sharan. In the 2015 film Sharp Shooter, he shared the screen with Diganth and also wrote the lyrics for the track Kuntebille. Recently, Chikkanna made his debut as a lead actor in the film Upadhyaksha.
During the teaser launch of Upadhyaksha, Chikkanna revealed that he encountered ridicule and mockery when he decided to take on the role of a hero in the film. “I’ve never faced any challenges in my 13-year career as a comedian, but I experienced it all in just one film when I accepted Upadhyaksha. I was ridiculed and questioned, ‘Is he a hero?’” the emotional actor shared during the event.
