Usually, when I am not working, I mostly hang out with my friends, ride my bike, listen to music, and, occasionally, watch movies.

Gangster films are exciting.

Aaranya Kaandam’ is not the biography or history of a gangster but a page out of the life of a gangster. It is like a day in his life.

I am totally inspired by ‘Godfather,’ one of the greatest films made. Also, I am fascinated by the thought of how someone becomes a gangster and continues to be one.
9
It is up to the directors to take risks in telling a story and if they want to experiment, they should work with the right kind of people.
10
It is their job as actors to play different people. Should only a doctor play a doctor’s role?
11
I did not fix any genre for ‘AK.’ We just write a story and audience will put it in a genre as they perceive it.
12
The ‘Mahabharata’ is the best story ever. It makes you believe that impossible things can be made possible. There is magical realism.

We make movies to be watched in theatres. Online streaming is more of a bonus, to revisit the film.

Mostly, I am waiting. Got to finish the edit, I am waiting. Dubbing must get over, I am waiting. Waiting for shoot. Waiting for the set. When you are waiting, your mind isn’t relaxed enough to watch a film.
17
The pleasure for me is in the writing process, which has its own challenges.
18
When I write a story or think of a scene, I always play some song in the background. Sometimes when I don’t add a song at the writing stage, I do it while editing the film.
19
I like films and I have been watching films from a young age. So, making films happened to be a natural progression.
20
I’m a huge fan of Doordarshan, so my influences range from international to local.
21
We all make films to be hits.
22
I am inspired by Indian mythology.
