That one moment, I feel it would be good to make the film and see the result. So, the most important thing for me is to know my audience.
#JAYAM TELUGU MOVIE TRAILER MOVIE#
If I’m doing a movie to attract the press or get their appreciation, I can only put on a press show, I can’t release the movie. If I think I’m doing a film for me, I have to sit at home and watch it. I think I know my audience and will only do films for them. One thing I want to tell you openly is to know your audience. Is there a film that you think will last better than your hits?įrom what I know, films that didn’t run well then wouldn’t run well now. One of the reasons I brought up Kamal is because Aalavandhan didn’t do well in the box office, but today has a cult following. I’m inspired by all my seniors, and I had also assisted my brother before joining Aalavandhan, so watching actors and films, all these added up to my joining the industry. I met him even before that through my father when I was very young. Was it also that, maybe, you saw Kamal Haasan and got inspired by what he was doing in Aalavandhan ? I thought acting was a medium close to me. I was always interested in the performing arts, I was trained in classical dance and learning Karate. I wanted to become a part of the industry, but didn’t know which field to select. My brother’s a director and I didn’t know if I should be a director. The problem with my family is that my father’s a producer and I didn’t know whether I should become a producer. You were an assistant director first, then an actor.

In Tamil, K Balachander sir, Bhagyaraj sir, Mani Ratnam sir and their works have impacted me to become an actor. That movie was Braveheart, directed and acted by Mel Gibson.

I don’t remember if I was in school or college, but that film made me realise I have to come to this industry. Has there been a movie that changed your life?
