Agathiyan taught me acting - Jai
Akash - Exclusive Interview
True to his natural soft-faced appearance, Jai Akash
has won many fans even before the release of his film Rama
Krishna. The young actor is toiling day and night to
become the top-most star in the Tamil films. He has recently
signed Kicha Vayadhu 16 opposite Simran. Jai Akash
talks to Galatta.com about his role in Rama Krishna
and the pains he underwent in completing the film.
Who is to be thanked
for your role in Rama Krishna?
First, I must thank the director Agathiyan who taught me acting
for each and every scene of the film. The director came to
me one day and praised me that I have done the role as expected
by him. I must thank the producer Sivasakthi Pandiyan also
who ha d
trusted my acting abilities and offered the role. I also thank
other artistes too who were helpful. Vijayakumar encouraged
me throughout the shooting.
Have you at any time
learnt fighting from anyone or any school?
I learnt Silambam fighting from Jacquar Thangam master.
Since, Agathiyan expected much from me in fighting scenes;
I practiced during my free time. Practice alone makes the
man perfect. Stunt master Jacquar also praised my involvement
in the fighting scenes.
You had some injury while the shootings
were going on …….
I suffered a severe leg injury when the fight in climax scene
was shot. In spite of the injury, I completed the shooting
for the day. Producer Pandian came to my house and advised
me to take care of my health.
Your future projects?
In Chevvel Hindi actress Misha acts with
me and Rajkiran acts as my father. I have taken up the role
of a law college student in the film. Gurudeva is
made in Tamil and Telugu simultaneously. Miss Kerala Pranathi
is cast opposite me in the film. I’m also doing Kicha
Vayadhu 16 with Simran. This is her re-launch film. Sivasakthi
Pandian also wants me for his new film to be produced soon.
I was told that distributors were in praise of my acting.
Tell us about your Telugu films….
Ramoji Rao’s Anandam Anandamayee has
become super hit film in Andhra Pradesh. My next film, Naidu
LLB is to be released soon. I’m very keen on being
successful in Tamil since I’m a native of Tamil Nadu.
What is your aim in life?
Apart from becoming a good actor in Tamil films,
I want to serve the down trodden. I want to construct homes
for blinds. My fans association’s are feeding the poor
and also helping them in their education by providing free
books and notebooks. Recently my fans’ donated Rs.60,000
to Madurai Indian Blind Association. |
