By Ians English
Actor
Aadarsh
Balakrishna,
who
will
be
pitted
against
Ram
Charan
in
upcoming
Telugu
film
Govindudu
Andarivadele,
says
he
would
like
to
make
a
mark
as
a
successful
baddie
in
the
industry
as
he
strongly
feels
there's
a
dearth
of
young
villains.
Aadarsh
told
IANS,
"I
would
like
to
make
a
mark
as
a
bad
guy
given
that
we
don't
have
too
many
villains
of
my
age.
I
don't
want
to
discriminate
between
hero
and
villain
roles
because
playing
the
baddie
has
always
worked
out
for
me." He
admits
he
has
"fun"
while
playing
the
baddie,
but
says
he
wants
to
be
"as
versatile
as
possible
as
an
actor".
He
added,
"What
I
really
look
forward
to
in
a
role
is
that
it
has
to
be
very
important
to
the
story
and
should
be
directly
proportional
to
the
screen
time."
He
says
he
doesn't
mind
being
hated
for
his
negative
roles,
especially
against
Ram
Charan,
as
he
believes
it
will
eventually
bring
him
admiration.
"As
a
villain
when
you're
hated
more,
that's
when
you're
admired
the
most
I
guess.
I
really
want
people
to
hate
me
after
this
film.
I
would
want
them
to
probably
come
and
even
stone
my
house.
If
they
do
something
like
that,
I
will
consider
my
job
well
done,"
he
said.
Audiences
will
get
to
see
Aadarsh
play
a
villain
who
is
part
"loud"
and
part
"aggressive".
Aadarsh
Balakrishna
said,
"There
are
times
audiences
will
see
me
as
loud
and
aggressive
in
my
role.
At
times,
all
that
they
will
see
from
me
is
just
a
cold
stare.
I'm
eagerly
looking
forward
to
see
it
on
screen."
Aadarsh,
who
started
his
career
with
Nagesh
Kukunoor's
Iqbal,
describes
Ram
Charan
as
a
"friendly"
co-star.
They
are
said
to
have
been
acquaintes
since
school
days.
He
added
"Ram
is
very
friendly
to
work
with.
I
have
known
him
even
before
we
became
actors.
Both
of
us
were
not
friends,
but
we've
known
each
other.
We've
played
cricket
together
growing
up,
went
to
the
same
school
and
coaching
camp.
It's
been
great
working
with
his
so
far."
Govindudu
Andarivadele,
which
is
currently
on
floors,
is
being
directed
by
Krishna
Vamsi.
It
also
features
Kajal
Agarwal,
Meka
Srikanth
and
Kamalinee
Mukherjee
in
important
roles.
Working
with
filmmaker
Vamsi
is
"unnerving",
says
the
actor.
"He
(Krishna
Vamsi)
is
not
someone
who
would
get
easily
convinced.
You
really
need
to
slog
it
out
because
he's
never
easily
satisfied.
It's
really
hard
to
get
him
to
complement
you.
But
that's
what
has
kept
me
going
and
has
pushed
me
to
give
my
best,"
he
said.
Aadarsh
is
currently
awaiting
the
release
of
Telugu
crime
comedy
Superstar
Kidnap.
He
will
also
be
seen
in
a
cameo
in
Telugu
remake
of
Aashiqui
2
titled
Nee
Jathaga
Nenundali.
He
added,
"He
focuses
a
lot
on
his
characters.
He
expects
us
to
remember
who
we
are
as
characters
as
he
doesn't
like
to
tell
us
about
it.
Overall,
It's
been
fantastic
working
with
him."
