Katta Subramanya Naidu turns actor

Karnataka Information Technology and Biotechnology Minister Katta Subramanya Naidu will be seen on the silver screen for the first time in cameraman-turned-director Ashok Kashyap’s Lift Kodla, a remake of Telugu super hit Maa Shreyobhilashi.

Subramanya Naidu plays the Home Minister in Lift Kodla. He agreed to do the role at the behest of his friend Jaggesh, the hero of the movie.

"It is my friend Jaggesh who insisted that I do this role. I agreed and all the shooting was completed within hours. I’m now eager to see the film. I hope I won’t prove to be a bad actor," the minister told reporters in Bangalore.
