Adivi Sesh Rejected Pawan Kalyan Movie at First; Opens Up On His Struggles

During the promotions of his upcoming film Dacoit, Adivi Sesh spoke openly about his life, struggles, and dreams.

Adivi Sesh said that he grew up in the United States, but from a very young age, he loved Telugu movies. He shared that he started watching films when he was just four years old. That love slowly turned into a dream of becoming an actor and creating his own identity in the film industry.

While studying in college, Adivi Sesh worked in a grocery store. There, he used to teach English to Telugu people and build contacts. He hoped that these connections might help him enter the film industry one day.

Adivi Sesh also shared an interesting story about his early days. When he was just 15 years old, he went for an audition for a film. To look older, he used pencil lead to draw a beard on his face. Even though he did not get selected, his passion to become a hero became stronger.

Later, he joined a film course in the US. However, he realized that degrees alone would not give him movie opportunities. So, he left his studies in the final year and started working in web designing. After that, he made his film Karma, where he worked as a writer, director, and actor.

He also revealed that he first rejected a role in Panjaa starring Pawan Kalyan. But after advice from his cousin, he accepted it. That role brought him recognition and opened many doors.
