Ada vidunga, most of thalaivar's films were remakes yet his performance was so outstanding that we forget that they are remakes. If dhanush puts in his own style which he has it might be quite watchable. But thalaivar chose remakes which had alot of sense compared to nowadays so it still remains to be seen.

Dhanush is busy completing Kutty which is now 90 percent over.

A visibly tired Dhanush told Sify.com: “I am totally drained out as it was blazing hot for the last 10 days in Chennai. We were shooting continuously in the hot sun under soaring temperature outdoors on the beaches for the last one week, and I became dehydrated. To my luck, it wasn’t very serious”

With this schedule, major talkie portion of the film is over and what remains now are two songs and some patch work. Dhanush is taking a small break and will resume Vetrimaran’s Aadukalam soon.

Meanwhile Kutty, according to him has shaped out well. He says: “It will be a cute film sans the usual masalas associated with my films”.

I have learnt to say "No": Dhanush

Well-mannered and attentive, Dhanush represents the 20-something who live, eat and breathe cinema. Last year, has been great for Dhanush who is riding high after a string of hits. Today (July 28), the actor celebrates his birthday quietly without any fanfare or celebrations. He has hardly any time for an interview, but agreed to meet me on a Sunday afternoon, at his swanky new apartment. As we walk in, he was a bit preoccupied with Yatra his cute 3-year-old son who refused to sleep as he wanted to continue playing with appa. Later, he settles down for this conversation with Sify.com about his films, family and box-office success.

What are the two things that you learnt in the last five years?
Actually there are three things-- (smiles)

That I have learned a lot through my mistakes
I have learnt to say “No”
There’s nothing beyond that one brilliant shot you’ve given.

You have zoomed past all your contemporaries to be one the most saleable heroes in tamil cinema?
Good to hear that from you. But I know that success is not permanent. I work hard for every film but ultimately the verdict is in the hands of the audiences with a dash of God’s grace and luck thrown in.

What according to you, is your biggest asset?
My biggest asset is my ordinary, guy-next-door looks. I don’t put make-up and try to look good, as my audiences like me the way I am. I come from a poor background and hence had this fire and determination to taste success. Ultimately, my only aim is to make my parents proud of me.

So do you mean to say that you have reached your goal?
No, I will take me another 10 more years to reach there (smiles).

Do you interfere with the making of your films?
The toughest thing in the industry is to say “No” and I have learned to say that now to people who come to me with a script that is not convincing. When the script is told to me, I put in my suggestions. I don’t tell them to increase the fight scenes and make me look like a larger-than-life hero. Once the shoot starts, I am a director’s actor. My ordinary guy image has worked wonders. Then why should I play with a success formula that has worked for me?

When will you start experimenting with your looks?
I am too young for that. Maybe after a couple of years.

You are teaming up with Shriya after that superhit Thiruvilayadal Aarambham. Please comment?
She is a good friend. Kutty is a breezy love story and she has shed her glam look and has a homely, girl-next-door look in the film. The only problem with her is that she asks you a thousand questions before a shot. She is also my wife Aishu’s friend.

How is Aadukalam shaping out?
If Vetrimaran’s Pollathavan got 100 percent marks, then Aadukalam will be 1000. It has a dream script and I don’t think, I will get such a script in the next few years. I am all excited about the film and let me confess that I’ve not worked or done homework for a film like this ever before. The highlight of the film are the performances of all artists, the script of Vetri, music of GV Prakash and camera of Vel Raj.

After Aadukalam what next?
It is a film for Hitesh Jabak, which will be a remake of Rajinikanth’s Mappillai. It has a great title value as I am doing the film. The cast and crew are being worked out and I will start the film only after I complete Aadukalam.

So you have a right mix of films lined up?
(Smiles).. Yes, by God’s grace I am very contended and happy. I don’t have any friends and I love to spend time with my family or play with my little son Yatra.

Dhanush confirms about Seedan
June 03, 2009

That Un Mugam Parthene has been renamed as Seedan is not news anymore. The director of the film, Subramaniya Siva, has decided on the name change a long time ago. This film is a remake of the Malayalam film Nandanam, which had Prithviraj and Navya Nair as the leading pair.

There were reports that the director has plans to rope in Dhanush to play the lead role. However, sources close to actor say that Dhanush will do a guest role as disclosed earlier and there is no change in it. Subramaniya Siva is expected to take up this venture after completing Yogi, which has Ameer in the lead. Seedan will have a newbie donning the hero’s role. Sources also aver that Dhanush has agreed on the guest role as favor to Subramaniya Siva for directing his smash hit film Thiruda Thirudi.
