Kannada actor Nanda Gopal MK’s mantra to navigate life is deceivingly simple — “If something works and it seems real, all you have to do is be open to possibilities”.
“I was an unofficial assistant director on that film. Sunil Kumar Desai, the director cast me to play a director in the film. I was essentially playing Desai himself, so to say.”
He has also essayed full-blown roles in many Kannada TV serials including iconic ones like HS Phani Ramachandra’s Danda Pindagalu, Prema Pishaachigalu, and Jagalagantiyaru.
Before that, he was a sleazy film producer/gangster in the Telugu web series Bhamakalapam 2 (2024) and also Kabir Anna in Pavan Sadineni’s crime series Dayaa (2023).
He is aware of the beauty of opportunity and doesn’t shy away from saying that getting to work with Sukumar, Allu Arjun, Prabhas, Fahadh Faasil, and their likes is a “big deal”.
