Popular Kannada actor Upendra, who had rendered several blockbusters in Kannada film industry, will make his debut in Tamil.
He has been assigned to do the negative role opposite Vishal in Sathyam. To be directed by Rajasekhar, Sathyam features Vishal in the role of a tough cop.
According to Upendra, who is currently the heart-throb in Kannada film industry, "Playing a negative role is no harm, unless you have a scope to perform. Rajasekar narrated the story to me and requested me to do the role. I was impressed with the role, though it had negative shades. I immediately agreed to do it."
