Prabhu Mundkur: One good 'Friday' will make a difference

Prabhu Mundkur emerges as an actor and a multifaceted creative force behind the upcoming film Murphy. His journey has been anything but ordinary—one that he describes as both tiring and incredibly rewarding. "From the time of inception, which started in a one-room setup, to the film's upload, I was right there," he reveals. "Being an actor, I have no formal film school training or background. This film became my university, and I was involved in every inch of Murphy’s making."

When asked about the numerous responsibilities he took on for Murphy, Prabhu shares his candid perspective. "I just came to be an actor, and I didn’t expect to take up so much," he admits. "Since 2017, from my first film Urvi to now, I have done 17 films. At that time, I wasn’t choosy; the industry was tough, and opportunities were scarce. It became clear that if I wanted to contribute meaningfully, I needed to be involved in all aspects of filmmaking, not just as an actor, and Murphy is the first step."
