The career of Jagapathi Babu reminds us of waves in ocean. He had his share of failures, but bounced back strongly after every bad fall. 'What happened has happened, what should I do next!,' that's the kind of mindset which keeps him going against the tide.
Jagapathi admits he lost everything at one point and got ready to do any role that comes his way. While shooting for the film 'Maa Nanna Chiranjeevi', His debts were so huge that even selling off his house won't be sufficient. He, however, has never lost the belief in himself when it comes to excelling in any character.
Jaggu Bhai claims he is lucky to command the same kind of respect from Top Stars and Unit Members even now after transition from Hero to Character Artiste.
These days, Jagapathi Babu was offered full-length roles similar to what Amitabh Bachchan and Nana Patekar has been doing. He wishes to take up such projects only if the budget doesn't exceed Rs 2-3 crore as its always going to be a safe bet even if released in multiplexes in all the Southern states.
