Veteran Telugu actor
Venkatesh Daggubati is all set to reprise his role as Naga Naidu in the upcoming second season of the web series 'Rana Naidu'. Known for his intense and layered performances, Venkatesh recently opened up about his character, sharing insights into what makes Naga Naidu both fascinating and challenging to portray.
A character full of contradictionsAs per an IANS report, Venkatesh described Naga Naidu as a man full of contradictions—unpredictable and rule-breaking, yet deeply devoted to his family. He related to this aspect of the character, that both he and Naga share a strong love for their families.
Venky and Naga opposites in natureWhile Venkatesh considers himself a person who values structure, stability, and predictability, Naga thrives on chaos and drama, often keeping those around him guessing with his unpredictable behaviour.
"That's the one thing Venky and Naga share. But otherwise? I'm predictable, Naga isn't. I like structure and stability. Naga? He lives for drama. I don't play mind games, but Naga, he's full of surprises. You never really know what he's thinking," he said.
The actor also added that unlike himself, who prefers straightforwardness, Naga is a master of mind games and surprises. This constant tension between charm and chaos makes the character compelling and keeps viewers hooked.
Venkatesh said, "There's always something simmering with Naga. You can't look away."
