Jagapathi Babu continued his career as a hero for nearly two decades in Tollywood. He has several super hits under his belt but he couldn't make much impact as a hero later. His films continuously failed at the box office and there was a stage when the audience stopped caring about the release of his films.
The whole situation changed after he has done a villain role in Nandamuri Balakrishna film 'Legend'. Now, he is one of the busiest villain cum character artist in the whole South India. He has received innumerable awards in the last few years. In a recent development, he received an award from Zee TV. Jagapathi made shocking comments during his awards acceptance speech.
He said that "I continued as a hero for several years. I've done several good roles.. but none of them cared me. Now I'm getting awards for whatever I do. My career is going great after I started playing villain-character roles. I'm getting very good characters now."
Jagapathi Babu is presently doing a crucial role in Charan's 'Rangasthalam'.. Nara Rohit film 'Aatagallu'. Apart from these Telugu films, he is working on a few crazy projects in Tamil and Malayalam.
