Atharva reveals Bala's secret

The whole fim fraternity and the media were left guessing and wondering when director Bala said he has fulfilled one of his duties by casting Atharva in 'Paradesi' during the audio launch that happened recently.
Atharva has come out to clear the air before the anyone comes up with some absurd reason. Atharva has said that the National Award winning filmmaker andn his late father and yesteryear hero Murali are very close friends.
Atharva said "My father (late Murali) and Bala sir were close. In fact, it was appa who was about to play the lead role in Sethu. But he (Murali) allowed Vikram to do the role, based on a request from Bala. So Bala sir has a lot of respect and love for appa."
'Paradesi' starring Atharava, Vedhika and Dhanshika is set to release on 21st December along with Santhanam's maiden production venture 'Kanna Laddu Thinna Aasaiya' with himself, Power Star Srinivasan, Sethu and Vishaka playing the lead roles.
