‘Number game does not matter’

With his big film Aegan – The Man releasing on Saturday, October 25, a composed Ajith talks about his career and fatherhood.

We hear that you play a college guy in Aegan, and you have mocked yourself in several places.

Aegan is an action film laced with humour. I have played a college student and the script demanded a lighter note. I have ridiculed myself in those college portions and they are meant to be like that. You won’t be able to control your laughter when you watch them. I feel that’s the way I have contributed to the film.

Is it true that the villain’s name in the film was Joseph Chinnappa and that you requested director Raju Sundaram to change the name to avoid clash between your fans?

Absolutely true! Though I do not want to elaborate on this matter, all I want to say is that I do not want to hurt anyone’s sentiments.

Of late you are working with new directors. How did you select Raju Sundaram for Aegan?

I have known Raju from a long time. We have grown in our respective careers at the same time. My primary concern is to work with anyone who is on a similar wavelength. Raju and I vibe very well. Also his sense of humour, enthusiasm and energy made us good friends.

Differentiate between Ajith as an actor and as a fan.

I idolize Ayrton Senna who was three times Formula 1 world champion. He is no more. He died on my birthday in 1994. I am not his fan just because he was a racer, but because I adore his personality. I have been influenced by many of his interviews. He was very philosophical for his age.

How has fatherhood impacted your life?

I am spending more time with the family. The blessing in disguise is that I have learnt to space my work — balancing between family and work. I have had my share of growing — the learning curves. I have had good and bad times. My daughter Anoushka is no exception. She will also have ups and downs. My wife and I are conscious about the fact that irrespective of her activities, we will always give her the moral support to make sure that she grows up as a responsible person.

Which are the films that are close to your heart?

Vaali, Mugavari, Villain, Citizen, Varalaaru, Kireedam and Billa. Needless to say that Amarkalam is the icing on the cake. It was where I met my better-half and I couldn’t ask for a better soulmate than Shalini.

Do you believe in the number game?

Age has brought about a lot of change in me. I see life in a different perspective today. I strongly feel that there is more to life than just films. So the number game does not matter.

Are you participating in the fast for Sri Lankan Tamils on November 1 ?

My heart goes for all the Tamils in Sri Lanka who are subjected to terror.

அவசரப்படாதீர்கள், தாங்கள் அப்படி சொல்லவில்லையாம். இது ஜங்கரனுக்கு எதிரான சதியாம். நாளை அவர்கள் பத்திரிகைக்காரரை சந்திக்கிறார்களாம்.

இது கனடிய தமிழ் வானொலியில் கேட்டது
