Mangaluru, Feb 5: Coastal Karnataka has produced a lot of young promising talents to shine in the glitzy glamour world. Young promising talent Deepak Shetty, hailing from Moodbidiri adds to the list.

As a civil engineering graduate from SNMP Mahaveera College at Moodbidiri, he had been to Dubai in search of job.

Deepak was in the top 10 in ‘Mr Dubai 2016’ and won the title at ‘Mr Bengaluru 2017’ along with the title of ‘Popular Face in Bengaluru’. He has also been selected for the 'Mr India' contest which will be held in March 2018.

Deepak recently bagged the title ‘Mr South India 2018’ which was held in January in Bengaluru, where he had to battle 14 other contestants. He also won the ‘Best Physic’ award. He was honored by many organisations and NMC for his achievement. 

This achievement brought him offers from film industry. It is gathered that even a Sandalwood director approached Deepak to act in his films. Deepak is willing to act in Tulu movies and get recognized as an actor.
