Adivi Sesh Says Pad Man Changed His Approach to Hindi Storytelling

The actor Adivi Sesh has been in the news recently owing to his latest flick called “Dakait.” Not only did he act in the film, but he also penned it himself. He recently revealed that a film starring Akshay Kumar inspired him to rethink his understanding of Hindi cinema, which led to the creation of his new movie called “Dakait: Ek Prem Katha.”

While speaking to India Today, Adivi Sesh elaborated on the significance of filming the movie on the borders of Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka. The dry and sunny terrain was selected intentionally to create an image of a South Indian cowboy Western.

Adivi Sesh said that after watching Akshay Kumar's "Padman" and learning about its true background, he reconsidered how to bring regional stories to a wider audience. He said, "We wanted something that felt like the backdrop of a cowboy western film. We always knew it would be a South Indian story told in Hindi."
