is rather excited about his role in the upcoming film

Old Monk

. Directed by MG Srinivas, the movie has Sathish essaying the role of time. “It’s an interesting character. While we were doing the reading, I was only supposed to be a background voice in the flick. But then we realised that this could be a full-fledged role and converted it accordingly,” shares Sathish. The hero always has an issue with time and encounters trouble. “His dilemma and conflict with time is represented through my character. For example, if he is proposing to a girl, I appear with a smirk on my face, which signifies that it is doubtful about working out... it’s just not his time,” says Sathish.
