This star shocked our special correspondent by saying that he doesn’t like to be called Simbu anymore. He said “I was named Silambarasan by my parents, and I always want to be Silambarasan, not Simbu.”

Silambarasan, the little superstar, said that his Silambaattam will be a commercial potboiler and would impress fans from 6–60 years. He also assured that the film would be lapped up by the family audiences. Simbu revealed that when cinematographer Saravanan wanted to narrate a story for a film he rejected it outright based on the assumption that cinematographer-turned-directors always came up with artistic movies. But when Saravanan started explaining the story, Simbu realized that it was an outright commercial film and gave bulk dates immediately. With three movies set to release this 2008 for Silambarasan, Behindwoods hopes that 2008 proves to be a Silamb(arasan’s)attam.
