Sapthagiri, who entered the film industry with the aim of becoming a director, accidentally became an artiste when director Bhaskar asked him to do a bit role in 'Bommarillu'. Years later, 'Prema Katha Chitram' gave him a huge break. Since then, he has done quirky roles in scores of movies.

Last year, he dared to dream big when his Homeopathy doctor turned into a producer and cast him as a male lead. 'Sapthagiri Express', released amid low expectations, fared decently well at the box office, bringing cheers and 'happy tears' to him. In the coming months, he will be seen in the films of Naga Chaitanya, Sharwanand and Naga Anvesh, among others.

Meanwhile, he has been into doing his second movie as a male lead! It's 'Revolver Raju'. A source close to him says that it will be yet another oddball comedy coming from the comedy hero.

Great going, Sapthagiri!
