The lockdown has led celebrities to come up with new ways to engage themselves. For Actor Rishi, the lockdown seems like an opportunity for productivity. The Kavaludaari has been reading script after script!
The actor is looking forward to the release of his next film titled Sakalakala Vallabha. Another film that he is looking forward to his other film Flip Flop; which was to come out later this year.
The actor was shooting for his film Ramana Avatara right before the COVID-19 outbreak. However, with the coronavirus outbreak, there is no certainty of release dates for his films. The actor has rescheduled his dates for another upcoming film offered to him. Rishi has signed on to appear in a Yograj Bhat film. The film is being produced by director-producer Shashankh and Mohan Singh will be directing it. Commenting on the film Rishi said, " Since I don’t have clarity on the release dates of my current two films, as well the shooting schedule of Ramana Avatara, I felt it doesn’t make sense to shoot the new film and keep it ready without releasing it. The shooting schedule of Mohan Singh’s directorial will be decided once the lockdown gets over."
The actor says that he wants to utilize the quarantine time to read scripts as he might not have free time later on. He says he will won't be able to dedicate this much time when directors approach him. “This lockdown has also made me realize that there are some promising filmmakers out there, with whom I want to work, and I am using this time to have discussions with them,” he says.
He also added, “This is a suitable time to know what I can add to my skill set, and explore my abilities." “It's a great learning experience to see others’ work. I am hoping to make this lockdown period as productive as possible.”
