Discussions on R.Madhavan Pt 4

The film was bad. But Maddy was swimming across the tide IMHO. Without doing a double role like Captain and Sarath, Maddy still managed to pitch it down - Vikraman's senti quotient - to a more tolerable level. Add to it that he was neutralizing sOthika's presence. The material itself is Vikraman's worst :lol2: I caught telugu remake Vasantham *-ing Venkatesh. :oops2: And then managed to watch "Unnai ninaithu" on Television. :lol2: Shows us how sophisticated Maddy is in over emotional scenes, and how his uninhibited style of performance refines sappy values and shoddy material. :P

Madhavan is riding high these days and he has reasons to. Recently his television show Big Money on NDTV Imagine has turned out to be a runaway super hit. Maddy is all excited about his new Tamil film KS Ravikumar directed Manmadha Ambu in which he shares screen space with Kamal Haasan. The actor has just completed the first schedule of the film in Europe on board a luxury seven star ship.

Maddy, talks exclusively to Sridevi Sreedhar about his Mediterranean cruise in his first interview after reaching Mumbai.

How did the shoot go?
Bagging this role in Manmadha Ambu is an ecstatic feeling. It is the best thing that happened to me in years. I am completely floored by the script and love my character. I am so happy that finally, I am working with Mr Kamal Haasan again (after Anbe Sivam) and also have the pleasure of working with Trisha again for the second time (after Lesa Lesa) and Ravikumar sir too for the second time (after Ethiree). I hope that Manmadha Ambu will be another turning point for me. It is amazing to be part of something so big.

Can you tell us about the experience on the Mediterranean cruise liner?
It was mind blowing and out-of-the-world experience. I think, all of us were spell bound to be on a ship like that with 18 decks and we were shooting on the 16th deck. The suites we were put up were 7-star and the liner had about 11 swimming pool and 23 restaurants. All of us had a ball and I must say that I had the first hand experience of being with Udayanidhi Stalin and he is such a wonderful, chilled out polished person.

How was it working with Kamal sir after a break?
We learn so much working with Kamal sir. He goes out of his way to treat you nicely and makes everyone so comfortable on the sets. I had Saritha and Vedanth with me, and they say it was a fantastic holiday for them. It was simply a mind blowing experience and the shoot went off meticulously.

What are your future plans?
I have completed the Hindi film Tanu Weds Manu with Kangana Ranuat. I will be back in Chennai to complete Manmadha Ambu and then I am off for a sabbatical.

Why a sabbatical at this juncture?
I have wanted to take a break from work and do whatever I always wanted to. I was not taking up any new offers and during these six months I want to spend quality time with family, write a script and take treatment for my injured knee.

Trivia: Chennai Kaadhal opening scene was in Mumbai, while Veyyil's opening scene was a dark stormy night. :D

Is Maddy working with Lingusamy again? :boo:

while doing chennai kaadhal, Vikraman was giving an interview saying... "veyyil kaalathula ennala kambali vikka mudiyadhu" ( means he feels that his way of filming is outdated... so he wanted to make a youth film)
