Initial
Years
Were
A
Struggle
Sudeep,
unlike
other
actors,
had
no
background
or
a
godfather
in
the
industry
to
help
him
when
he
had
just
entered
Sandalwood.
Recollecting
it,
he
said,
"From
music
it
was
a
step
away
from
cinema.
For
six
years,
I
struggled
in
the
Kannada
cinema
industry.
I
lived
on
Rs.500
per
month."
When
Affairs
Got
Ugly!
Sudeep
married
Priya
at
an
early
stage
in
his
career.
With
fame,
he
also
came
to
be
known
for
having
alleged
affairs
with
his
co-stars.
When
asked
if
he
was
linked
with
anybody,
he
said,
"A
couple
of
times,
yes,
and
it
was
ugly.
But
it
was
ok.
It
fizzled
out
in
a
few
weeks.
My
wife
knows
either
I
am
working
or
I
am
at
home."
How
Was
It
With
Family?
"No
I
never
took
money
from
the
family
after
standard
10.
I
used
to
work
in
a
clothes
store,
played
cricket
for
money,
did
photo
shoots.
It
was
that
period
of
struggle
which
gave
me
the
experience
to
be
an
actor.
The
emotions
have
to
come
from
the
raw
material
of
life," the
Pailwaan
actor
said.
All's
Fine
Now
However,
things
seemed
to
have
changed
for
good
in
the
last
decade
for
Sudeep.
Though
he
and
Priya
had
a
few
rough
patch,
the
couple
has
decided
to
work
on
their
relationship.
On
the
professional
front,
he's
awaiting
the
release
of
his
next
big
film
Pailwaan.
