When producers and directors were courting Sivaji Ganesan, MGR directed and produced 'Nadodi Mannan' and showed that he can do it alone. He created history and stood his ground against one of the best actors in history, Sivaji Ganesan.
I'm not a Kamal Haasan or a Sivaji Ganesan, I know I'm Vijay Antony.
Of course, I have not just been a Sivaji Ganesan fan but a fanatic.
I've admired Sivaji Ganesan ever since he staged 'Veerapandiya Kattabomman.'
If Sivaji Ganesan was Nadigar Thilagam, Manorama was Nadigai Thilagam.
People knew that I was a disciple of Sivaji Ganesan and wanted to honour his memory. In fact, I did a movie and play adaptation of 'Vietnam Veedu,' and used the song 'Un Kannil Neer Vadinthal' as part of the play.
Sivaji' was a fantastic movie. It is one movie I am going to take back to my grave and like a greedy actor, I want more such movies in my career.
It is a privilege that women fancy me, but I cannot sustain the chocolate boy image forever. I don't want to end up being known, like the late veteran Tamil actor Gemini Ganesan was, as the king of romance.
It has become impossible to forget 'votes for women,' just as it was impossible to forget the reformation of Luther.
The great thing about Eminem is, he's just hysterical. You forget, people like Eminem because he is riotously funny. And he's a great actor.
The Actor should make you forget the existence of author and director, and even forget the actor.
I want to do more movies like 'Sivaji.'
Truly great friends are hard to find, difficult to leave, and impossible to forget.
My dream as a youngster was to be like Olivier. To be a great stage actor. To be a great Shakespearean actor. To me that is the Olympics of acting.
The way I see it, the impossible happens all the time; but we're so good at taking it for granted, we forget it was once impossible.
Gary Oldman is impossible to steal a movie from. He's such a great actor, he's off the hook. I love him.
