Did Imtiaz ali, the director
of Jab We Met see Kanden Kadhalai?
Dhananjayan:
I was apprehensive to show the
film to Imtiaz Ali and was not
sure about his feedback. But
he called me and said he would
be watching KK along with the
entire crew of Jab We Met in
Bombay Talkies and give his
feedback. To us, Imtiaz Ali’s
interest in our film is something
big.
How do you view Kanden Kadhalai?
Dhananjayan:
Jab we met is one film which
was telecast in all the channels
so many times. It would be great
if it happens to Kanden Kadhalai,
as it is a ‘feel good’
love story with good amount
of entertainment quotients.
It is important that people
should welcome such films.
Did you find the role of Shakthi
challenging?
Bharath: My
biggest challenge was to carry
the character well. I had to
portray an attitude of ‘born
with a silver spoon’.
It was not difficult for me
to play a role that requires
me to be mute. In my earlier
film Pattiyal, I was a speech-disabled
person and had essayed the role
with a lot of emotions. That’s
not an issue for me but to demonstrate
finer feelings in a subtle way
was a tightrope walking for
me because a bit of this side
or that side would completely
misfire and the audience may
feel I am overacting.
What was the feedback of your
family and friends?
Tamannah: When
I showed the film to my family
and friends in Mumbai, they
loved the way Bharath did his
action scenes. They felt it
was very stylish. They were
so taken aback that somebody
could fight so stylishly. Of
course, in the original, this
was not there.
