'SIMBU IS LIKE A MIRROR' Says DIRECTOR GANESH VINAYAK
Thagaraaru, the upcoming movie directed by Ganesh Vinayak, that has Arulnithi and Poorna in the lead is all set for release on the 6th of December. We caught up with the director ahead of the release of the movie for a little tete-a-tete.
Tell us something about yourself.
This is my first film. I assisted Tarun Gopi sir in Thimiru and Kaalai and also assisted Simbu in Kettavan. I am happy that I have learned a lot from them.
So, what have you learned from your Gurus?
From Tarun Gopi sir, I learned how to handle a script. It was a backbone for me. I have great respect for him.I learned a lot of things from Simbu. I am lucky to have worked with him. I have learned how to handle a movie technically.Simbu is up to date about the technical side of films. Kamal Haasan sir is known for his up
to date knowledge about films. After Kamal I have seen it with Simbu. Be it Music, Photography, Sound, Direction, Acting, Dance and Singing, he has good knowledge about everything.
How is Simbu as a person?
He is great as a person. He knows how exactly to behave with people. When we go to a restaurant, he asks us to give respect to the waiters. He would say the waiter should not get the feeling that he is working for us. He asks us to address them as sir.He is like a mirror. He looks at you, just like how you look at him. If you are friendly with him, he would be friendly with you. If you behave badly, you’ll get the same behavior
from him.
What are your future plans? Do you have plans of making a movie with Simbu in the lead?
Yes. Definitely. I have plans of making a movie with Simbu. We are good friends. Actually I was supposed to make a movie with him first. But he was busy with the Love Anthem song with Akon and I got committed to this project.
