Though his entry to the film industry was through Manirathnam’s
Alaipayuthey, Maddy first starred in Hindi TV soap.
After a half a dozen flops, he finally managed to capture
the hearts of the North Indians with his effective portrayal
in Rang De Basanti and Guru. Madhavan had always encouraged
people to become a vegetarian in order to lead a healthier
life.
He also featured in an ad, where he crammed himself
inside a cage to show how the chickens suffer. Madhavan
once said: "Chickens may not be cute and cuddly
like some animals, but they still feel pain just like
you and me. It's simple – I love animals, so I
don't eat them".
That’s the advise for you from Mr. Vegetarian,
2007.
