Dhanush has been a fan of my father since his childhood. They share mutual respect for each other. Also, the fact that Dhanush made it big on his own and not because he is someone's son-in-law is something my father deeply admires.
Dhanush is a movie star, but like my father, he's very different. In fact, I saw a lot of my father's qualities in him. He's simple, down-to-earth and respects his work a lot.
Neither Dhanush nor I have been interested in using Appa's name ever. We have been married for eight years and I don't think you'd have ever seen Appa at any of Dhanush's audio release functions or movie success functions.
I wanted to work in Tollywood ever since I did the Tamil film 'Anegan' with Dhanush in 2015.
Dhanush has been my strength. When I asked him if he would work in my film, he did not even think twice.
I think that if you have to work very hard at dressing up and it makes you nervous or uptight, then you won't look very well because you won't be comfortable. I think it's much better to be comfortable and happy than well dressed, don't you?

I am extremely thankful and grateful to Dhanush and Wunderbar Productions. It's a blessing to work with them because he is a non-interfering producer.
Dhanush is my biggest shield. Whatever be the situation, he creates a space for me to work. This has been the case since our first film.
Since I am Rajini's daughter and Dhanush's wife, people may think 'why she is even bothered to work hard?' But I want to stand out, make a name for myself.
In some respects I'm quite easily led, so I have to make sure I've got my own space, and that I feel comfortable in my working environment. It's very important for me to work with the right collaborators, as I can easily get led into a corner where I'm not comfortable.
Some people are very much comfortable working out in gyms. Basically, it is all about movement. If you are comfortable moving in a gym, that is absolutely fine. But gymming does not work for me. I don't like carrying those weights and doing workouts on those heavy machines.
I can work with shyness, but for the most part I want people to feel comfortable with me. It's really more about the photographer feeing comfortable right when they walk in that makes the subject feel comfortable.
I'm very comfortable speaking to millions of people, but not comfortable in a small, intimate social setting. Like cocktail hour. I get very panicky.
If you're not comfortable with public speaking - and nobody starts out comfortable; you have to learn how to be comfortable - practice. I cannot overstate the importance of practicing. Get some close friends or family members to help evaluate you, or somebody at work that you trust.
I'm very comfortable with failure. I'm very comfortable being the guy who disappoints people.
