RDX is running packed houses in theaters and did an unforeseen coup, toppling Dulquer Salman’s movie 'KOK' to emerge as the Onam winner for the year 2023. With praises falling from all quarters for the big success of the movie, young star Shane Nigam has again courted some news for his candid talks in an online interview.

“ It feels like I am comfortable doing movies that require quite some physical effort. I have done many emotional roles and a few remarkable characters in the past, but many such roles failed to strike a chord with the public. People come to the theatre for entertainment. We do a yeoman’s effort perfecting some roles and it hurts bad when people chide away such films. I am doing this much work and when I take a look at social media, people call me a “ depression star”. Maybe it is part and parcel of this field, but it hurts nevertheless.’ Shane opined.

Over the years, Shane had some occasional bouts with technicians and veterans within the film industry. He was banned once by the producers' association for showing a 'lackadaisical' attitude at work. However, with the success of RDX, the actor has proven his mettle to deliver when it matters the most.
