doing full justice to the characters he has been bestowed to play in gripping
stories. Now actor turned-director pathiban has roped in vijay for a brief role in his latest directional
venture, kathai, thirakathai, vasanam, iyakkam. The successful actors avers
that it was out of his regard for a senior that had him accept the role.
“though it’s a brief role, I have my consent immediately. I
was told that only I could do justice to this role. Secondly, parthiban sir is
someone whom I really admire. I’m a big fan of his movies, pudhiya paadhai and
pondatti thevai.
Parthiban, who is all praise for vijay’s commitment, says it was a pleasure to direct him. “I felt that vijay would be apt for the particular character in the story. I asked him wheather he could be a part of the film, and the immediate response from him was ‘when and where should I come sir’. I was really bowled over by his simplicity and sincerity. When it comes to his screen presense. He is someone we can relate to and that is the reason for his success. I don’t have another reason why I chose him to essay this role in this experimental films says parthiban.
