How Rushiraj became Chandragupta...
TNN | Mar 27, 2011, 12.00am ISTDespite going on a nation-wide hunt to find the young Chandragupta, the creative team was unable to find an apt face to play the title role.
The search that went on for eight months finally ended when one day a boy accidentally landed up at the audition hall to ask for directions to some place. Everyone felt that he should audition for the lead role. Soon, Rushiraj found himself mugging up some lines in chaste Hindi and changed into the costumes for the period drama. A crew member briefed him about the character. Within a matter of few hours, Rushiraj transformed himself into young Chandragupta Maurya and delivered his lines with such poise and elan which left no doubt that he was the face the creative team had been looking for. Co-incidentally, Rushi had always been fascinated by the acting world. Here's hoping that the young lad lives upto everybody's expectations!
