Cheran gets accolades for Yuddham Sei

It wasn���������t long ago when actor-director Cheran expressed his doubts to Mysskin and other close friends about pulling off the role of a CB-CID officer in Yuddham Sei.
But now, the actor is totally convinced he fit the role perfectly, thanks to the appreciation he���������s been getting from both the audience and the critics.
���������All those who���������ve seen the film have appreciated the concept and my character.Many even said that the role was tailor-made for me! Hearing it from many veterans and the public has given me a lot of confidence. From now on, I���������ll gladly take up roles that I haven���������t done earlier,��������� says a beaming Cheran.
He admits that playing JK was a difficult task. ���������JK is not like the kind of roles I���������ve played till date. Expressing happiness, sadness and anger doesn���������t come naturally to him. He cries and laughs within himself. His body language is very subtle and he thinks like a pro. Director Mysskin had carefully sculpted my character and I followed his instructions. I���������m just an actor in this film; the story and subject are his,��������� he says.
Cheran reveals that of all the compliments he has received for his role, he will forever cherish what his director, K S Ravikumar, told him. ���������I���������m from Ravikumar sir���������s school. Though he has appreciated me for most of the films that I���������ve directed, he���������s never complimented me on my acting skills. But, after seeing this film, he personally told me he liked me in the film. He���������s my guru ��������� he has scolded me many times when I���������ve erred and he���������s praised me when I���������ve done something good. So, his words are very important for me,��������� he says.
Moving on, Cheran is looking forward to Muran that���������s directed by Rajan Madhav. ���������There are several things in the film that I loved doing. Rajan has explored the darker side of a man. Everyone who sees the film will think he���������s met a character from the film in his life. Nikita, Prasanna and Haripriya play important roles and all our characters are important to move the story forward,��������� he signs off.
The other side...
For Cheran, Yuddham Sei is special not only because it earned him a good name, but also because it gave him an opportunity to meet his online friends! ���������I���������ve at least 200 friends online who stay in Chennai. They constantly stay in touch with me and we discuss films often. So, I arranged a special screening of the film for them. I didn���������t feel like asking them to pay up the ticket price, but I told them that if they feel like, they could contribute funds for CHILD, a home in Korattur that takes care of children who are either orphans or whose parents are HIV positive. I was able to raise Rs 37, 000 when we held the show and we donated it to the home,��������� he says.
