Munna: On the right track

Actor Munna is ecstatic. And why wouldn���������������������������t he be? His latest flick Kanden Kadhalai has just hit screens and the actor is on cloud nine.
I am reprising the role of Anshuman played by Tarun Arora in Jab We Met. In the Hindi version, Anshuman was portrayed as a negative character, but the Tamil version shows him in positive light. Even though he doesn���������������������������t accept Tamannaah���������������������������s love in Kanden Kadhalai, he has reasons to justify it.The climax of the film is just incredible,��������������������������� starts off the beaming actor.
The film has been directed by Kannan, who worked as an assistant to Mani Ratnam.
���������������������������It was great working with the team of Kanden Kadhalai. Director Kannan is a tough taskmaster. He accorded importance to facial expressions and wasn���������������������������t satisfied unless he got the best out of us. And that���������������������������s not surprising as he comes from Mani Ratnam sir���������������������������s school of direction,��������������������������� adds Munna.
Lady luck surely seems to be smiling on the actor who has also managed to grab a role in one of the biggest movies being made, Mani Ratnam���������������������������s Raavan.
���������������������������It���������������������������s like a dream come true. I never thought in my wildest dreams that I would work with Mani sir or meet Aishwarya Rai. But today, I am on top of the world because this is the most prestigious project I���������������������������ve been a part of. Every time Mani sir said ���������������������������action���������������������������, I would start trembling. I was very nervous on the sets, but Mani sir would act out every scene and ask me to repeat the same. Sometimes, he would scold me to ensure that I delivered my best,��������������������������� recalls Munna.
Be it Kanden Kadhalai or Raavan, both seem to have done a whole lot of good for the actor���������������������������s reputation. ���������������������������Yes, they have worked wonders for my career. People have now started recognising me. A couple of days back, I dropped into a restaurant in Chennai and a group of young women approached me and asked if I had acted in Kanden Kadhalai. It feels nice to be recognised,��������������������������� he says with a grin.
So, what does the future look like for this chocolate boy? ���������������������������I am reading a few scripts, but I am not in a hurry to sign projects. I have made quite a few mistakes in the past by choosing insignificant roles and I don���������������������������t want to repeat that. I am extra cautious after Kanden Kadhalai and Raavan. From now on, I have decided to do only full-fledged hero roles,��������������������������� concludes the actor.
