BW:
Tell us about Taxi No.
4777
Meenakshi:
After Karuppusamy Kuthagaidarar,
Taxi No. 4777 is my second
film in Tamil. This is
an important film for
me. I am doing this film
with all my friends starting
from director to producer
to costars. When the shooting
began, we did not know
each other but towards
the end, we have all become
like a huge family. This
film is a remake of the
Hindi hit Taxi no. 9211.
I had seen the film and
liked it a lot. So when
the offer came my way,
I immediately grabbed
it. The songs of the film
have come out well and
so is the picturisation.
The sets, costumes and
the sequences have turned
out very well. There are
many driving scenes between
me and Pasupathy sir.
After this film, I have
become a better driver.

Differences between your
character in Karuppusamy
and Taxi No.
In
Karuppusamy my role was
that of a middle class
Madurai girl who comes
from a conservative family.
I am an educated girl
who was doing her M.B.B.S.
In Taxi no. 4777, I am
a rich extrovert, party
loving and a cosmopolitan
girl. My name is Pooja
in the film and I am little
spoilt too. These two
characters are totally
different starting from
clothing to way of speaking
and body language.
Is your role a glamorous
one in Taxi no?
I am wearing western costumes
in the film. There are
no vulgar scenes in the
film and no one can say
that I am doing a skin
show. All the costumes
are very decent, but modern.

Who are your favorite actors
in Tamil?
My
list is a bit long. In the previous
generation, I like Rajni sir
and Kamal sir. I would be fortunate
if I get an offer to act with
them. In the current generation,
I like Ajith, Surya, Madhavan
and Vijay. |
"If
it’s Kamal,
I won’t even
listen to the
script. I will
immediately
accept it" |
If you get an opportunity
to act with Kamal in Marmayogi,
will you take it?
Of
course! I will not even
listen to the script.
I will immediately accept
it.
Who is your role model
in Tamil?
I
don’t have any role
model.
What are your future projects?
I
am not allowed to talk
about my future projects.
Compare Bengali film industry
with Kollywood.
Bengali
films and film directors
are talented. But after
working in south, I feel
Tamil and Malayalam industries
are much better than other
film industries of our
country. I find some of
the actors here are more
talented than even Bollywood
stars.
