Actress and doctor Kamakshi Bhaskarla says filmmakers rejected her for having worked with Satyam Rajesh, calling the practice unfair. Speaking while promoting her upcoming thriller Agadha, she said she has auditioned for roles since 2019 but still lacks the fame and financial stability she expected after nearly nine years in Telugu cinema.
Kamakshi said she still travels by bike and comes from a middle-class family for whom owning a car is a major milestone. Known for the Polimera franchise, she said she prefers roles portraying ordinary Telugu women over glamorous characters. Agadha, directed by MS Raju, is scheduled for release on August 14.
The story points to a familiar film-industry shortcut: judging an actor by past co-stars instead of performance. But one account cannot establish how widespread that practice is, or explain every career setback. Kamakshi’s choice to seek relatable roles also challenges the assumption that visibility depends only on glamour. Agadha will offer a practical test: whether a strong performance leads to better roles and steadier work.
