Newcomer Apoorva Rao is making her debut in the upcoming film 'Happy Ending,' scheduled to release on February 2. Hailing from Ongole, Apoorva spent her formative years growing up in Gujarat and Kuwait in the Middle East. She earned her Bachelor's degree in Bengaluru before pursuing a Master's in Luxury Brand Management, a specialized course. "I had the opportunity to travel during my studies," she shares.
In her recent interview, Apoorva reveals, "I've had experience working in the finance, fashion, and hotel industries. However, during the pandemic-induced break in 2020, I came to the realization that regardless of the work I did, I wasn't finding true satisfaction. Upon reflection, it became clear to me that I yearned for something that engaged my imagination. Fields like acting, directing, and writing, which involve creativity, caught my interest. To enhance my skills, I enrolled in a film school with the intention of improving my ability to perform in front of an audience." Apoorva goes on to share that the acting coaches at the school encouraged her to start auditioning for roles.
The opportunity to star in 'Happy Ending' arose when director Kowshik Bheemidi identified Apoorva as a fitting match opposite actor Yash Puri. Apart from her height being suitable for the role, her proficiency in Telugu played a crucial factor. Apoorva elaborates, "The hero's character faces a humorous conflict; he is restricted in certain aspects of life due to a curse. In the movie, I play a Yoga instructor with a character capable of seeing beyond surface-level matters. My role is as endearing as Kamalinee Mukherjee's in 'Anand.' Though it may sound boastful, it's the truth. My character holds substantial importance in the second half, bringing a fresh perspective as the female lead in the film."
The film is produced by Hamstech Films and Silly Monks Studios.
