Day 2 - Meeting with a movie star
On our way to the office this morning Manohar and I took a little detour to the house of the Indian movie star Kota Srinivas Rao. As we made our way up to the gated mansion we were greeted by one of his multiple servants, removed our shoes and were seated in an entry room which displayed scenes of his various roles on the walls and housed many of his awards. When he entered the room there was definitely an aura of greatness about him but yet he made us feel very welcomed. He played roles of characters that were larger than life and almost always a villain. After we shot a few pictures together in the entry way he was gracious enough to show us the rest of his house one room at a time. The architecture was very modern with four floors all made of white marble and stair rails made of stainless steel. Each level had an impressive balcony and rooms very organized with built-in compartments for storage which in some cases literally opened up as part of a wall. Very cool. We left with a hand shake and a promise that I would attend his current movie out called “Leader”.
