My wish was fulfilled through this film. I’m now getting some Hindi film offers because of ‘Ravanan.

’ I’ve been so busy these last few years that I’ve had no rest at all. I just had some free time and took a holiday in America with my family.

There was some news about my acting with Salman Khan.

I am presently acting in Hindi film ‘Raktacharitra.’ If the story is really good, I have no problem in acting opposite newcomer heroes.” Read more...
