Keerthy Suresh on Deepika Padukone working hours. Keerthy Suresh who is set to entertain viewers with her upcoming film Revolver Rita speaking to scribes, shared her thoughts on 8 hours working hours propagated and followed by Deepika Padukone.

She said &ldquo;For a 9 o&rsquo;clock shift, if I have to be there by 7:30 AM, I have to start from home at 6:30 AM and wake up by 5:30 AM. And when you pack up by 6-6:30 PM, you leave by 7 PM to go back and change. By the time you reach back home, it&rsquo;s 8:15 PM. We change and go to work out by 8:30 PM, and by the time you&rsquo;re done, it&rsquo;s 10 PM. You shower, have dinner, and it&rsquo;s already 11 PM. Now, I have to wake up at 5:30 AM after sleeping at 11:30 PM.&rdquo;

She continued &ldquo;We say 8 hours of sleep is good, but we hardly get to sleep for 6 hours. And this is in an ideal 9-6 shift. Imagine us shooting for more hours, imagine the technicians reaching sets before and packing up after us,&rdquo; she explained, adding, &ldquo;In Tamil and Telugu, we usually have a standard of 9-6. But in Malayalam and Hindi, they work for 12 hours. In Malayalam, they work without breaks in continuous schedules, and it&rsquo;s difficult. They sleep 3-4 hours, and lightmen in Kerala sleep 2-3 hours. However, sleep is just as important as food or exercise.&rdquo;

Under these circumstances, he is forced to take a shocking decision. What is this decision, how Sagar (Ram Pothineni), his die hard fan react and what role his father Simhadri (Rao Ramesh), lover Mahalakshmi (Bhagyashree Borse), her father Purushottam (Murali Sharma) form rest of the developments.&nbsp;\r\n<h2 style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif, Ramabhadra; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1.1; margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px; font-size: 18px; padding-bottom: 0px; background-color: #ffffff;\">Andhra King Taluka (2025) Movie: Artists Review</h2>\r\nRam looked youthful and came up with energetic display on the screen. He showed good emotions and expressions and is impressive with his body language. He looked exuberant on the screen and at times expressed with his eyes. He danced energetically in songs and is good in action sequences. He delivered dialogues according to the situation.&nbsp;\r\nBhagyasri Borse looked good on the screen. She is fine with her performance but didn\'t get much scope to showcase her acting talent.&nbsp;\r\nUpendra played an important role and his role took the narration forward. He showed his expertise and experience and came up with subtle expressions and emotions.&nbsp;\r\nRao Ramesh and Murali Sharma played the roles tailormade for them. Rao Ramesh is good in the role of hero\'s father and Murali Sharma\'s did the same accordingly.&nbsp;\r\nRahul Ramakrishna is good as his friend. He evoked few laughs with his performance. Satya also made his presence felt with his performance. Others like Tulasi, Sindhu Tolani, VTV.

However the scenes involving Ram gives us a routine feeling along with the love track. But few scenes like Ram drawing inspiration from his hero\'s Dialogues and also his friend giving him a reality check about his love before the first half ends on a monotonous but interesting challenge setting the tone for the second half. The scenes and narration in the first half treads at a snails pace.\r\nThe second half continuous in the same vein and it is loaded with many Predictable elements that end up testing the patience of the viewers. Hower few scenes connect chords with the movie lovers and makes a strong impact. The pre climax and climax comes with few interesting elements. For all the elements and scenes, the film missed the emotional connect. Mahesh Babu.P came up with an interesting story and decent narration but screenplay is ok. Dialogues are good and powerful at times.&nbsp;\r\nThe music of Vivek-Mervin is youthful. His songs are foottapping and had energetic beats. The songs are shot in a beautiful and visually appealing manner. He elevated the scenes to the next level with his background music. His background music added value to the storyline.&nbsp;\r\nSiddharth Nuni with his cinematography gave an appealing experience to the viewers with his camera angles and colourful portrayal of the locations in a scenic and natural manner.\r\nThe editing of Sreeekar Prasad is ok but could have been better as there are many drags and scenes that impacted the flow of the narration. Production values are good.\r\n<h2 style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif, Ramabhadra; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1.1; margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px; font-size: 18px; padding-bottom: 0px; background-color: #ffffff;\">Andhra King Taluka: Advantages</h2>\r\n<ul style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif, Ramabhadra; font-size: 17px; background-color: #ffffff;\">\r\n<li style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\">Ram Pothineni</li>\r\n<li style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\">Fresh Concept and Conflict</li>\r\n<li style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\">Couple of Impactful Scenes</li>\r\n<li style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\">Music and Dialogues</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<h2 style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif, Ramabhadra; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1.1; margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px; font-size: 18px; padding-bottom: 0px; background-color: #ffffff;\">Andhra King Taluka: Disadvantages</h2>\r\n<ul style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 10px; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif, Ramabhadra; font-size: 17px; background-color: #ffffff;\">\r\n<li style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\">Slow Pace</li>\r\n<li style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\">Editing</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<h2 style=\"box-sizing: border-box; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif, Ramabhadra; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1.1; margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px; font-size: 18px; padding-bottom: 0px; background-color: #ffffff;\">Andhra King Taluka (2025) Movie: Rating Analysis</h2>\r\nAltogether, Andhra King Taluka turns out to be a decent entertainer. Ram is good with his performance and director Mahesh Babu tried to surprise viewers with a different plot. He starts the proceedings in an interesting way despite taking his own sweet time but from then on many monotonous and predictable elements crept in. The story suffers from missing emotions and this impacted the film\'s final result hugely. A little fine-tuning of the script, doing away with the routine elements, more powerful charcter arcs, turning the screenplay racy and interesting and high elements could have added value to the narration. Considering all these aspects,&nbsp;Cinejosh goes with a 2.75 rating for Andhra King Taluka.

\r\nNikhil talks about losing his precious years. Nikhil captivated all with his performance in Karthikeya 2. He is now busy with Swayambhu which is progressing at a brisk pace under the direction of Bharath Krishnamachari.\r\nSpeaking to scribes, Nikhil shared his fears. He said&nbsp; &ldquo;A lot of people have been asking me why I didn&rsquo;t release a film this year, but I&rsquo;ve been waiting for something big. And that big thing is Swayambhu. We spent 170 days over the course of two years shooting for it. In comparison, I shot Karthikeya 2 in 80 days.&rdquo;\r\n&nbsp;\r\nIn Swayambhu, Nikhil is playing the Chola Warrior , Krishnan Raman, 11 Century CE. Nikhil shared&nbsp; &ldquo;I am a huge fan of period content like Game of Thrones or our very own Baahubali. We often discuss the Greek hero Achilles, but few people are familiar with an Indian hero like Krishnan Raman,&rdquo; says Nikhil, adding, &ldquo;When I first heard this story and about my role, I loved it. I thought his story must be told. He was a kingmaker, and I am happy I get to play him.&rdquo;\r\n&nbsp;\r\nHe continued&nbsp; &ldquo;We ensured we were historically accurate, and I know I did justice to my role. Even something as my character using a Sengol (sceptre) was treated with respect. To be in a world away from phones, I did my best to be in that mindset and fit in that time period,&rdquo; says Nikhil. But ask him what the most challenging part was, and he jokes, &ldquo;Growing out my hair for 3 months. They wanted to put me in a wig, but I insisted on having my own hair.&rdquo;\r\n&nbsp;\r\nNikhil talks about Krishan Raman\'s horse named Maruthi. He says&nbsp; &ldquo;His real name is Diamond, and I truly enjoyed my time with the horse,&rdquo; he says, adding, &ldquo;It&rsquo;s different when you drive a bike or a car. Horses have a personality, and I needed to understand that before we worked together. I spent three months with him before shooting to form that bond. Wherever I went, the horse would come. We shot some fun scenes together. And I&rsquo;ll let you in on a secret, Maruthi can speak in the film.&rdquo;\r\nOn Karthikeya 2 success,he added&nbsp; &ldquo;The story looked fantastic on paper, but we needed a good budget and graphics. Following the success of Karthikeya 2 in 2021, we secured the necessary budget, and the entire team has done a great job. The film has some out-of-this-world ideas that made me say yes, I just needed to do it. For example, there&rsquo;s a scene of Maruthi and me going across oceans&hellip;I&rsquo;ve said too much and can&rsquo;t reveal more.&rdquo;\r\nSwayambhu is up for release on 13 Feb 2026. About his next projects, he shares &ldquo;I have shot 50% of The India House, it&rsquo;s a totally different genre for me. Then I have Karthikeya 3, so hopefully there are good times ahead,&rdquo; says the actor. However, he candidly admits that he fears he is wasting his best years due to long shooting schedules. &ldquo;There was a time when we could wrap films in six months, and that&rsquo;s not happening now. As an actor, I fear I am wasting my best years&hellip;my young years. But if you don&rsquo;t spend such time, people no longer watch a film. I only hope that my efforts pay off.&rdquo;\r\n
