Nagarjuna to take a break after Shirdi Sai Baba

Actor Akkineni Nagarjuna, who is playing Shirdi Sai Baba in his upcoming film, had a tough time while shooting for the role. The actor has donned grey hair and austere getup to look like Baba. He says that he has worked hard to get into the skin of the character. He wants to take a break after completing its filming.

Talking to the media, Nagarjuna said that the film team was to have photo shoot, but instead of it, they took one of his still from the film Ramadasu and made some necessary makeup to his look. “I had put in lot of effort to get into the skin of the role of Shiradi Sai Baba.
