Interview with Gautham | View Chat pictures and read chat excerpts
Q:Did your interest and inclination to dance lead you to become an artiste or was it vice-versa?
Gautham: My interest towards dancing was totally different; it was a passion I discovered, something I wanted to do all along my life. Acting happened along the way. I did not plan for it to happen, it was something I eventually took up as it came along. And dancing helped me in my acting career. As I was a dancer it was easy for me to emote, because basically dance is also a form of expression like acting.

Q: Do you have any dance school where you train and inspire people who want to become dancers?
Gautham: Yes, I do run a dance school where we teach proper and authentic Western dancing. It serves as an opening for those who want to learn more about different forms of dances around the world. The dance school we conduct is affiliated to a foreign board that is in Australia.

Q: Are you trained in Indian and Western classical dance?
Gautham: Yes, I am trained in Western and classical dance. I am still under training; I am doing my grade five in 'jazz'.

Q: Being an artiste, a TV anchor, a performer of dance, and a choreographer? Which do you enjoy doing the most? Or what is the order if you like doing everything?
Gautham: Ok I can be an artiste, a TV anchor, a dancer or a choreographer I enjoy doing everything as it is related to the media. I enjoy doing anything and everything as long as it is a part of the media. So there is no choice of preference or order when it comes to doing what I am doing now. As long as it is concerned with media I am happy.

Q: Who is your favorite choreographer(s)? What do you like about him/her/them the most?
Gautham: Favorite choreographer - right now there are many of them. But if there is one person who has always been on my mind it is Gene Kelly.

Q: How do you feel when people say actor 'Major' Sunderrajan is Gautham's Dad instead of the other way around?
Gautham: It doesn't matter if I am recognized as the son of 'Major' Sunderrajan or if he is recognized as Gautham's Dad. The way I am recognized or acknowledged does not bother me, as it is the fact, the basic fact. So there is nothing to feel about it.

Q: Are you doing any movies/TV serials as of now?
Gautham: Yes, I am doing a movie with Director Agathiyan called 'Kadhal Samrajjiyam' and I am doing four or five serials along with my 'Thillana Thillana' dance show on Sun TV.

Q: In one of your interviews we heard a pretty interesting narration from you about you meeting your wife? Is it true?
Gautham: Yes meeting my wife, it is quite a long love story. We met in 1990 and we got married in 1996, six years of love and then finally marriage. It is too long to write it down here. It is a long story but an interesting story. May be some other time. Thank you.
