The SURYAs behind Auto Nagar Surya: In this series I would like to share my journey with the character artists who delivered impeccable performances in Autonagar Surya.

AJAY GHOSH as GIRI’s AID
(also MAYOR VOICE)

Ajay Gosh is another yet to be discovered extremely talented artist who comes from stage and radio background. He played a very important role (SP Gowda) in Prasthanam. His voice and statue are captivating. I expected him to break into main-league character artists in Telugu cinema after Prasthanam. He played some important characters in small budget films and also in Bhojpuri.

At some point I even thought of casting Ajay Gosh for Mayor Kotalingam in ANS. Between Madhu Singampally and Ajay Gosh, it was a toss up decision for me. Eventually it turned out that there is a significant contribution from Ajay Gosh in completing the Mayor character. It’s Ajay Gosh’s voice that captivates you in theater when Mayor talks. Even though Madhu Singapally has a very good voice and modulation, I was obsession by the way Ajay Gosh sounded in Prasthanam. It was more of my obsession for that voice that pulled me towards requesting him to dub for the Mayor character. Even though he is a terrific actor himself and is still looking for recognizable opportunities, he accepted my request just to help me out. We both were concerned that people might call him frequently for voice dubbing instead of offering characters. Ajay Gosh’s ambition and true potential is acting. Compared to the efforts he put in playing the characters in both of my films put together, the effort he put in giving voice to Mayor Kotalingam is more. I don’t want that effort go unrecognized, so I dedicate this article to him.

Though Ajay Gosh is now a reasonably busy artist, he is an extra-ordinary talent waiting to be discovered on a big canvas. The contrast between characters he played in Prasthanam (SP Gowda) and ANS (Ajay’s aid) and the voice dubbing for Mayor Kotalingam shows his tremendous versatility as a natural artist.

I thank this Surya for his commitment and sacrifices. Wish him all the best to reach higher altitudes in his career.
