Rakshit Shetty says he became an ‘emotional person’ during Sapta Sagaradaache Ello shooting

Rakshit Shetty, set to grace the screen in the upcoming film Sapta Sagardaache Ello Side B, recently shared insights into the emotional journey that led to the creation of the movie. In a candid conversation released by Paramvah Studios, Shetty, along with director Hemanth Rao, Rukmini Vasanth, and Priya J Achar, delved into the depths of their experiences while working on the project.

Rakshit's emotional transformation

Shetty revealed that the genesis of Sapta Sagardaache Ello Side B occurred during a time when he found himself slipping into a certain emotional zone. Following the completion of Avane Srimannarayana and the commencement of shooting for Charlie 777/Side B, the actor noticed a significant shift in his emotional disposition.

"While shooting Side B, I was in a different zone. I started a very different journey when ASM (Avane Srimannarayana) was over and the Charlie 777/Side B shooting started. So when I started shooting Side A, because of that journey, I had become a very emotional person in real life also. For example, the things for which I did not beat my head, started to matter. It was very easy for people to hurt me," he said.

Rakshit opens up about his personal life

The actor emphasised the impact this emotional transformation had on his personal life, stating, "What I want to do in life was very important. So I never cared for people around me talking about me. So I always selected what are the baggages I want to take and what are the baggages I don’t want to take." Shetty's approach, though deemed amusing by some, played a crucial role in shaping his performance in the film.

Rakshit on the necessity of emotions

Addressing the necessity of these emotions for the film, Shetty explained that it was essential for him to experience these emotions genuinely to authentically convey them on screen. He said, "When I tell it to people, they say, ‘How is that possible? One cannot decide an emotion.’ But for this film, it was important for me to have those emotions. Otherwise, how will you emote? But I did not get into that zone because I was doing the film. When I was going to that zone, this film happened." Meanwhile, Sapta Sagardaache Ello Side B is set to hit theaters on November 17.
