Hyderabad:
Telugu
actress
Lakshmi
Manchu
said
on
Saturday
that
a
hallmark
of
a
good
actor
is
that
he
or
she
can
perform
one
single
scene
in
three
million
different
ways.
The
actress-cum-producer
was
addressing
graduating
students
of
Annapurna
International
School
for
Film
and
Media
in
the
city,
when
she
made
this
statement.
"If
you
need
to
excel
in
the
art
of
filmmaking,
then
you
need
to
adapt
to
all
crafts
of
filmmaking.
One
needs
to
learn
to
perform
a
single
scene
in
three
million
different
ways
as
an
actor.
As
a
director,
one
should
also
get
in
front
of
the
camera
and
act
to
bring
the
best
out
of
the
cast," IANS
quotes
Lakshmi
Manchu
as
saying.
From
the
perspective
of
a
producer,
she
said
movies
seldom
fail,
but
budgets
do.
Lakshmi
Manchu
said,
"We
make
a
big
budget
film
when
it
could
have
been
done
in
a
lot
more
simpler
way
because
audiences
in
this
region
like
to
see
big
things
on
screen.
They
like
to
see
their
hero
doing
larger
than
life
stunts
and
expect
lot
of
magnificence
in
the
film."
Lakshmi
Manchu's
recent
production
Gundello
Godari,
which
has
been
made
with
a
hefty
budget,
has
done
decent
business
at
the
Box
Office.
She
added,
"This
is
why
most
big
budgets
fail.
But,
now
I
feel
that
we
are
inching
towards
making
films
like
those
made
in
other
industries
which
are
smaller
in
budget
and
experimental
in
nature."
