Krithi Shetty played Revathi in ‘Custody,’ which is set to be released on May 12. She played Naga Chaitanya’s love interest in the film, which starred him as a constable. However, her presence in the film is not a mere prop.
“I’m not a typical hero’s girlfriend who appears in romantic scenes or songs. I appear throughout the film and play an important role in the plot’s events. In general, I practice for dance situations. In this film, however, I practiced gymnastics for custody. It’s an action movie,” she explained.
“The film also includes underwater sequences. We had two days of special training to perform those scenes. The underwater scenes were filmed for nearly 15 days. At first, I was afraid to perform them because I had to stay in the water for at least two minutes without taking normal breathing,” Krithi Shetty revealed of her preparation for the action stunts.
She also praised both the director and her co-star, Naga Chaitanya. “This is my second collaboration with Naga Chaitanya. He’s a true gentleman. He is a genuine individual. Venkat Prabhu is an excellent director. Plus, he’s a nice guy,” she added.
Recent Krithi Shetty films such as “Warriorr,” “Macherla Niyojakavargam,” and “Aa Ammayi Gurinchi Meeku Cheppali” failed at the box office. But she claimed to have learned from her mistakes.
Krithi Shetty also intends to make her Bollywood debut with the right project. She is currently working on a film with Sharwanand.
