Overwhelmed by the National Award: Kishore

The boy comes across as unassuming, yet confident as he begins to talk about his award-winning experience.
In the city to inaugurate Star Night, an event organized by the John De Britto Dance Academy, Kishore admits to feeling overwhelmed by winning the National Award for his role as the sweet-tempered Anbarasu in the 2009 film ‘Pasanga’.
“Winning the National Award in my first film was a really memorable experience for me, and has given me the confidence to take acting more seriously in future,” he says.He also says that the support of his parents was the key to him getting into acting, with little formal background.
“I had only acted in my school annual day prior to my role in Pasanga, and my parents were extremely supportive, which made me go ahead and play the role with confidence,” he stresses.
The child artist, who plans to pursue his under-graduation in Visual Communication from Loyola College, is now looking forward to his next project, Kamban Kazhagam.
“I will be seen next in Kamban Kazhagam, after which I will take a break to focus on my studies,” he signs off.
