Hatrick director S.J.Surya is ready for the next
game. If he gives another hit, then he will be
in the list of heroes who get their salary in
crores. In his interview,
he talks about his latest project, BF.
Question: Have you decided to
do only one film in a year?
Surya: It is nothing like that. I am
planning to do 4 films a year.
Question: Before, you used to
write stories keeping other heroes in my mind.
Do you feel any difference when you are the hero
in a story?
Surya: Surya, as a hero is a good person.
Only if there is work for actor Surya, he will
come out of director Surya. I usually have other
heroes in my mind when I write my stories, so
there is no need of actor Surya to come into picture.
Question: What was the reason
for the failure of New in Telugu?
Surya: I committed a mistake in using
Magesh, an action hero in a romantic and comedy
film. Another reason is that Kiran was not used
in Telugu and the duration of the film was more
in Telugu. Too much sweet often causes hatred!
Question: Do you think that the
films which are based on sex are good for the
society?
Surya: It doesn’t matter on what
subject the film is based, what matters is how
it is expressed. One of Balachander’s hit
films Manmatha Leelai was based on sex,
but it conveyed a message to the audience.
