He mentioned that it was Cheran's assistant Jaganathan who directed him for Puthiya Geethai and Cheran supervised the shooting of the film for four days. Those five days, Vijay claimed, he felt like acting in four films of Cheran as he felt the director paid a lot of attention to detail. He even expressed his desire to act in Cheran's direction.

The event wore a different look when a leading director opined that his assistant director's presence intimidated him. Now how often have you heard that? We guess never. Parthipan made this revelation about his assistant Karu. Pazhaniappan to an audience that had all the bigwigs of Kollywood at the Santham Theater during the same event.

Parthipan, the eloquent speaker that he is, was at his jovial best. This isn't something we haven't seen in the past but what made this special was that he didn't spare anyone on stage.
