People ask me if my hero image
will be damaged by acting as Vijay’s father. No one will get that
impression when you watch the movie. I essay a brave Madurakaaran in a
dignified role.
Vijay has huge fan following in Kerala
Vijay’s
Tamil films have done big business in the Malayalam market and he has
got huge fan following there too. So 'Jilla' will be a sweet sakkarai
pongal for both our fans in Kerala.
On his recent blockbuster 'Drishyam'
Even as the director was narrating
the script of 'Drishyam', it had a great impact on me. I knew that
there’s no heroism in it. Still, my characterisation was so intense that
I grabbed it. And the movie is getting remade into Tamil and Telugu.
Vijay became a Superstar when he
was very young. But he is grounded and success has never gone to his
head. His sincerity and hardworking nature has brought him the huge fan
base. Initially, both of us were quiet on the sets. Over a period, we
started sharing a great bond and even cracked jokes. Now, we frequent
each other’s house on special occasions.
The senior actor says that his wife
Suchithra who is his biggest critic, watched the movie along with him
and enjoyed every bit of it. The introductory song "Sivanum Shakthiyum
Serndha Maasuda", "Edhutthu Ninnavan Dhoosuda" where the two stars dance
to the music of Imman was applauded by everyone present at the special
screening.
