In a recent media interaction during the trailer launch of his upcoming film “Hanuman,” Teja Sajja found himself responding to a journalist’s query about his unexpected presence as the protagonist in what seemed like a grand visual extravaganza. The journalist, expressing surprise, questioned how a relatively smaller actor like Teja Sajja could fit into such a high-profile role. Unfazed, Sajja, who started his journey in the film industry as a child artist, offered a compelling counter.
Teja Sajja emphasized his longstanding presence in the industry, having begun his career as a child artist and gradually transitioning to more prominent roles. He highlighted his versatile experience, including a supporting role in the acclaimed film “Oh! Baby.” Sajja’s journey reflects a deliberate effort to explore diverse roles and collaborate with different directors, ultimately leading him to the opportunity to headline a major film like “Hanuman.” He questioned whether the same skepticism would be raised if the opportunity had gone to a tier 2 hero from a reputed industry family with a strong fan base.
Teja Sajja’s confident response to the journalist’s question has resonated well with netizens. His assertion not only showcases his belief in his capabilities but also challenges the industry’s preconceived notions about the conventional hero. The appreciation pouring in from online communities suggests a changing narrative where talent and dedication are acknowledged irrespective of conventional industry norms. As “Hanuman” gears up for its release on January 12th, 2024, coinciding with Sankranti, audiences eagerly anticipate Teja Sajja’s performance in what promises to be a visual spectacle.
