Career

He made his acting debut with Railway Station (2012), where he played one of the lead roles.[2] Sandeep Madhav worked as an assistant director under Jeevan Reddy for Dalam (2013).[3] Sandeep made his lead acting debut with Ram Gopal Varma's biographical film Vangaveeti. In the film, he portrayed the roles of Vangaveeti Mohana Ranga and Vangaveeti Radha, Ranga's brother.[4] A critic from the Deccan Chronicle wrote that "He plays the dual roles of Vangaveeti Radha and Ranga and has done a fantastic job. The two characters have distinct personalities and histories but Sandeep has pulled it off with remarkable talent".[4] Madhav collaborated with Reddy again for George Reddy, a biographical film based on the leader of the same name.[5] Madhav lost weight and exercised to portray George Reddy, who was a student leader and a boxer.[3][6] In a review of the film by The Hindu, the critic wrote that "Sandeep Madhav leads the show; he looks and walks the part of an academically-inclined and polished student who at first glance wouldn’t be expected to throw punches".[7]
