First Shot...
Actor Diganth shares his debut experience
"First impression is the best impression"
goes an old saying. Similarly, for many, first experience
turns to be the best experience. Whether its good or bad,
it is indeed the first feel and has its own significance in
their career moving forward. So many people cherish those
moments of their life. We captured the 'First Shot' experience
of Diganth, the hero of new Kannada cinema 'Miss
California'. He shared his experience exclusively with
viggy.com in his own words… Excerpts:
I
think this is the most rememberable work I have ever done
in my life. My first movie experience was great.... SOUND,
ROLLING, MONITER, ACTION... they are still echoing in my ears...
First
I faced the camera through a song, where I had to dance. Those
steps were pretty tough to follow for the first time... But
dance master Ragu made it so easy that I did it in the very
first take... I was little nervous but I gained self-confidence
quickly. Since that was my first ever shoot, director was
very patient and gave me enough time to learn those dance
steps.
I should mention about this for sure... was a pretty scary
incident... I was driving a jeep while shooting the song...
it was really an old jeep and its steering was really tight.
I had to drive the jeep on the mud roads of Chikmagalur tea
estate. Camera was far away from me, and so were the people…
In the middle, I lost my balance and almost fell from the
jeep... Oops... I would have fallen into almost 50 feets deep
trenches... luckily I managed to escape from that disaster...
Working with Dattanna was great fun and even with Swastik
Shankar - two men with great sense of humor. Both helped me
a lot improvising my acting, with modulation and body language.
And
of course Janu (heroine)… How can I forget her... She can't
speak Kannada. So our assistant director Sandeep Malani was
prompting her Kannada. She has a very funny Kannada accent
and sometimes she could not even repeat some words. She used
to murmur something like blurjhfjkhsjhuifik... It was
so funny... I have laughed so many times on the takes. But
she acts so well. I have not seen any debut actress like her...
