You get people coming up to you and asking about movies, especially in Chennai, which is nice.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Chennai is the birthplace of a new language in cinema. The audiences here are the most evolved moviegoers to be found anywhere in India.
I was born and brought up in Chennai, as the entire Telugu film industry was based there.
I knew that all South Indian language films were first made in Chennai and that Tamil Nadu is one of the biggest film-producing centres in the country. I wanted to be part of films here.
In India, the films are not looked upon just as entertainment. They're a way of life.
Cinema should always be in touch with the soil of the country. My films celebrate the heartland of India.
Cinema in India is like brushing your teeth in the morning. You can't escape it.
Movies are a big part of our Indian culture.
You see, I have many friends in the Hindi film industry.
Chennai is such a beautiful place to perform in. The city is lovely, and the people, even more so.
