Caste has divided us. I wish it should be completely abolished from our society.
Once, when I was driving my bike with my helmet on, two girls recognized me by just looking at my eyes.
If a film is suitable for family viewing, it should remain so, and if a film has some adult content, it should remain so, and these genres should never be mixed and spoil the vision of the story teller.
'Vikram Vedha' is special because it has taken me to the next level in my career.
There's no challenge involved in any kind of role. I don't have to prove or impress anybody.
I was active on Facebook for a while, responding to comments and thanking fans for their appreciation. But I found that the Facebook feed was numbing my emotions. I'd see an extraordinarily tragic news item, and even before I could react to it, see a hilarious meme right below it. This was confusing me.

I don't have a role model.
We have to eradicate caste.

I am always for and with the Tamil people.
As an actor, you need to use everything at your disposal.
I prepare my style of biriyani by sauting sliced onion, tomato, green chilli, ginger garlic and add required water and rice. If I end up adding a tad too much of salt, I used to add curd to balance it.
I'm excited and nervous about every film; once I understand the medium fully, I'll relax.
My father always used to ask me what my aim in life is. I used to tell him I don't have any.
I don't overact, so people think that I naturally act well. I underplay my roles, and that has worked for me.
