An emotional Nag speaks..
- IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,March 31 2016]
Nag and the team of Oopiri held a chit chat with certain physically-disabled people in Hyderabad.
Nagarjuna says that doing the role of a quadriplegic in Oopiri was a life-changing experience. Saying that doing the role helped him understand the meaning of life and freedom, Nag talks about his late mother's health problem. "I know how much of a problem it is for those who are wheel-chair bound. It's because my mother suffered from arthritis for eight years. I felt unhappy watching her in that condition. By working for this film, I realized that medicine is for the body, not for the mind. Those who are wheel-chair bound are not disabled persons, but differently-abled persons," he said.
Talking about the scenes that touched his heart (like the episode where he helps Karthi's sister), Nag further says that acting in such films brings change in a person. "I am thinking high of late. Me and Karthi have become good friends. It's that bonding that could be seen on the screen."
In the meet, Vamshi Paidipally and Prasad V Potluri also spoke, while it was attended by some doctors.
