World's shortest movie hero
Ajay Kumar, lovingly called Guinness
Pakru
, will have a new feather in his hat as he is preparing to play the lead character in 'Ilayaraja', directed by acclaimed filmmaker
Madhav Ramadasan.
The poster of the movie, with a close-up shot of Guinness Pakru with a serious look on his face, has the tagline "This fire can't be blown off, this inner fire of life". Ramadasan has earlier worked on '
Melvilasom
' and 'Apothecary', both critically appraised movies.
The shooting of the movie commences by the start of next month.
"Am very happy and I'm a fan of Ramadasan," said Pakru as a response to his new role.

"He (director) has given me a challenging role for an actor like me. Ilayaraja means small king, so it has some resemblance with me," said Pakru. Pakru will direct a movie also this year and he is engaged with the script work of that movie.
