Q) Tell us about your character in the movie?

A) Am doing a full-fledged mass role in this movie. In one word, my role will be as hot as Guntur Mirchi.

Q) Your previous experimental movie didn’t give you fruitful result. Are you ready to do those kind of movies again?

Q) Tell us about your director Sathya?

A) He is a talented director. I just followed what he said and I’m confident that the audience will love this movie for sure.

A) We followed a correct meter in designing action episodes. Mainly, the sequences which come between me and Sampath garu will be very fresh and engaging.

Q) A few words about your next project, Okkadu Migiladu?

A) It will also be a very good action entertainer. Director Ajay has worked hard for the film. I did the role of LTTE Prabhakaran in this film. War scenes which come in the climax will attract the audience to the core.

Q) Will the film lead to any controversy?

A) No, we just showcased how Prabhakaran emerged as a Leader for Tamilians, who were suffering in Sri Lanka. There will be two stories running paralelly with some true incidents happened between 1990 and 2017.

Q) Are you planning to do any movies in Tamil?

A) Yes, I will be starting a bilingual project from May. Actually, I’m planning to remake Gunturodu in Tamil and I will take a decision soon.
