Versatile Artist Thanikella Bharani: From Writer to Actor, His Journey in the Industry

In a recent interview on a popular YouTube channel, he shared insightful anecdotes about his journey, reflecting on the diverse roles he has donned throughout his career.

“Back in the 1980s, I entered the industry as a writer and later ventured into acting. Many newcomers would primarily be writers or actors. If they are talented, demand for their work would increase, and they would have to wait for dates. However, now the scenario has changed. If someone doesn’t get opportunities in a certain role, they can easily switch to something else. This trend has its advantages,” remarked the seasoned artist.

Thanikella Bharani’s illustrious career has seen him excel in various roles. “Acting as a hero or heroine’s father, you tend to get typecast. Due to this, it has become increasingly difficult to be recognized for different roles in recent times. I, however, am open to accepting diverse characters, irrespective of their screen time,” he explained.

The acclaimed actor highlighted the importance of embracing unique roles and expressed his preference for accepting roles beyond the conventional, as he believes that portraying such distinctive characters brings immense satisfaction. “I only accept roles that resonate with me and challenge me as an artist. Stepping out of my comfort zone to portray a polar opposite character is what excites me,” Bharani added.

A writer par excellence, Thanikella Bharani has also made significant contributions to the industry with his engaging scripts and dialogues. He emphasized that while the demand for artists is limited, there’s always a demand for talented writers.

“Each era in the film industry presents its unique challenges and opportunities. As an artist, I am grateful for the incredible roles I’ve portrayed and the diverse characters I’ve embodied,” he concluded.

Thanikella Bharani’s remarkable journey from being a prolific writer to a versatile actor serves as an inspiration to many aspiring talents in the industry. His commitment to embracing diverse roles and his passion for storytelling continues to make him an esteemed figure in the world of Indian cinema.
