GV Prakash Kumar not only stars as the hero but also produces Kingston, which is set to release this Friday (March 7) in both Telugu and Tamil languages. The movie is produced under the banners of Parallel Universe Pictures and Zee Studios. Touted as India’s first sea adventure thriller, Kingston features Divyabharathi as the female lead.
This marks her second collaboration with GV Prakash Kumar after Bachelor. Ahead of the film’s release, she interacted with the Tollywood media.
Talking about second collab witb GV Prakash, she said “Bachelor was a big hit, and honestly, I never expected it to be released in Telugu. But once it did, it got a great response. Compared to that film, Kingston is entirely different. It’s India’s first sea adventure thriller. I am also excited that this is GV Prakash Kumar’s first film as a producer. When I was initially offered the role, he was the sole producer, and later, Zee Studios came on board. He put in a lot of hard work for this film, and I am really happy to be a part of it.”
Talking about doing action in Kingston, she said “I didn’t suffer any injuries. Our action choreographer, Dhileep Subbarayan, took a lot of precautions. I also did some preparation for the action sequences. It’s quite rare to get such roles. Doing action for the first time was a thrilling experience. I even performed rope sequences in this film. That’s when I realized how tough action scenes can be! I am not sure if I will get another challenging project like this again.”
Talking about fluency in Telugu, she said “I have acted in a Telugu film titled GOAT, starring Sudigali Sudheer, which is ready for release. Also, my assistant is Telugu-speaking, so I practice speaking with him. That’s how I am learning.”
Talking about her favourite heroes, she said “I am a big fan of Power Star Pawan Kalyan! I really love Khushi. And, of course, Pushpa Raj, Allu Arjun.”
