Talking about how he got the chance to act in Vedam, Nagaiah, in one of his earlier interviews, had said, "Krish spotted me on the streets of Hyderabad and called me to his office. When I went there, he asked me to tell a dialogue which was written on a piece of paper. As soon as I narrated it, he signed me up for a role in Vedam. We shot the film for over six months and soon after its release, many other filmmakers approached with me roles".
