Charitra’s press meet was held at the

RC is all about. It is worth mentioning here
that RC is a trilingual film that will be made
in Tamil, Telugu and Hindi.

Suriya said that the filmmaker SMSed him soon
after the release of Kaakka Kaakka, lauding
his performance. Following this, Suriya said

marriage venue on time to wish him and Jyothika.
The actor also disclosed that RGV sends him
prints of all his new films so that he could
view it with his family and friends.
RGV said that he was keen on casting Suriya
in a film that will have ample scope for acting
and was bidding for the right opportunity. He
added that Suriya is the only other actor to
possess powerful and expressive eyes, the first
being Amitabh Bachchan. On Suriya’s role
