'NRT' is a comedy film, which has the extreme of emotions with Vijay Sethupathi and Nayanthara as the protagonists.
Vijay Sethupathi looks a film as a film. He never looks at what kind image he is going to get out of the character.
There's nothing Vijay Sethupathi can't pull off, right?
Vijay Anand's death marks the passing away of a true, original mind. Vijay had charisma and cinematic dazzle. He was the first who gave Indian film directors the status of a star.
I call it a comedy film, but I feel that is because 'Sholay' is a complete film. It is the best in every aspect. You see the music, the editing, dialogues, action, drama, tragedy, and the emotions of this film and you will find everything is perfect. It is a flawless film.
Television is often out ahead on social issues. With film, we've only recently proved that one of the oldest misconceptions in the book is wrong, which is the idea that girls will see films with boys as protagonists, but boys won't see movies with girls as protagonists.
I play important roles in Vijay Antony's 'Saithaan,' 'Kadamban' and 'Vijay 60.'
I think 'Paper Moon' is a comedy-drama. 'What's Up, Doc?' was the most severe comedy, but my favorite film of my own is 'They All Laughed,' which is a kind of bittersweet comedy.
I think the book is less emotional than the film. With the film, the emotions are much more raw and in front. In the book, they are kind of ironized and seen through comedy.
Nowadays if you talk of comedy as a film genre, you cannot create a simple comedy film, because there are so many other platforms where you can watch comedy free of cost.
You didn't find comedy in 'Magadheera.' Any film high on emotions doesn't need such elements.
There's such an extreme feeling to be in love, especially in quite an emotionally destructive relationship, where you're both kind of really bad for each other, but you love each other so much. Those extreme emotions, I think, can only be described with extreme imagery.
In the year 1943 my grandfather, Shri Vijay Bhatt made a film by the name of 'Ram Rajya.'
I would love to do a film with a lot of humor in it: a comedy with pain instead of a painful film with some comedy.
If you take 'Agni Natchathiram,' it is about two half-brothers and their emotions and those are genuine, which can be made into a very hard-hitting film just that it can be presented in an entertaining fashion. Similarly with 'OK Kanmani,' it is a genuine film; it is not a flippant film just for commercial purposes.
'Band Vaaje' is all-in-all a comedy film. But all comic scenes are situational. The jokes are not just for the sake of punches. The film has proper story which we are sure that audiences will love.
I just like comedy in general. My film work, which has been at times more dramatic, has been satisfying. But I never feel quite as good and as light and blissful as when I'm doing comedy.
