In a recent interview, he expressed his excitement about exploring the darker side of characters, noting the freedom they offer compared to the traditional hero roles.

Aadhi shared how much he learned from Balayya during their collaboration. Similarly, he expressed admiration for director Boyapati Srinu, known for his blockbuster hits like Akhanda and Simha. Aadhi stated that Boyapati’s dedication and approach to filmmaking on set were inspiring, and being part of his film with Balayya leading it was an incredible opportunity.

Aadhi’s 2025 career has already been marked by significant projects such as Sabdham and Mayasabha, which have been well received. He credits the writers and directors for the success of his roles, emphasizing that when the script is strong, his job becomes easier. As he steps into a villainous role in Akhanda 2, Aadhi is excited to break traditional molds and explore a new dynamic. Looking forward, Aadhi is also working on upcoming films like Disco and Maragatha Mani 2, with details yet to be officially announced. With a promising future ahead, Aadhi Pinisetty continues to take on challenging and diverse roles that showcase his acting range.
