Vijay is a fantastic actor and singer, says his 'Puli' co-star Shruti Haasan
Actress Shruti Haasan, who is starring opposite Ilayathalapthy Vijay for the first time in Puli, is eagerly waiting for the film's release on October 1. The highly anticipated fantasy-adventure has been directed by Chimbu Devan.
In an exclusive chat with dna, Shruti Haasan reveals that fantasy is one of her favourite genres and shares her experience of working inPuli.
You worked with Vijay for the first time in Puli.
It was a very good working experience. As everyone knows, Vijay’s a very big star and has a huge fan following. He’s quite focussed on his work, keeps to himself and brings positivity to the work.
What attracted you to the script – other than the Vijay factor of course?
I think it’s the fact that Puli will appeal to all members of a family audience. Everyone can go enjoy it and find something that they like in this film. I think that’s rare for a movie to accomplish. Because of the mix of fantasy and the way it’s been treated like a commercial film, it pulls in different kinds of audiences - this is what is really exciting about this kind of a film.
Devi Sri Prasad has composed the music. Did you enjoy singing the song with Vijay?
Yes, very much! I’ve always enjoyed singing. I’ve worked with Devi before; he’s a very talented musician. He’s excited about music – not that other people aren’t - but he’s a very positive and energetic kind of person. To sing for him in the studio was a really fun experience. It’s usually rare that actors can sing and perform so it was wonderful to collaborate with Vijay on the song Yendi Yendi.
What do you think about Vijay as a singer?
I’m not a critique or one to judge but to be honest, he’s a fantastic singer!
Did you enjoy working with Sridevi?
I’ve always been a big admirer and fan of hers. Sridevi is one of the few actresses who has crossed language barriers and so many other barriers. I’ve always looked up to her and modelled myself on the way she deals with so many different kinds of audiences and been able to do so many different genres. For me, to work and with her and be able to speak to her in a work environment, was very nice. To see her working was something I was looking forward to. I must say she’s so dedicated, driven and focused that she brings much determination and positivity to her work. There was a lot to learn from her!
And Chimbu Devan?
Director Chimbu Devan is very creative as you can see even in the trailers. Making a fantasy film requires imagination and I think he’s got that in abundance! http://www.dnaindia.com/entertainmen...haasan-2128602
