Comedian-actor Santhanam is known for his fantastic comic timing which has earned him a massive fan base from all quarters. One of the most celebrated actors in the Tamil film industry, Santhanam, has various commercial blockbusters to his credit. He is eagerly anticipating the release of his upcoming film titled DD Returns directed by S Prem Anand. He recently organised a press conference for the film at Jenney Club, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu.
Santhanam told the reporters that he has no problems playing the role of a comedian if there is a gripping storyline. The actor also said that he didn’t need to follow a particular diet regime when he played the character of a comedian. Now, he has to stick to a fitness schedule because he is essaying the lead roles in films.
Santhanam also said that his film DD Returns will be a treat for the fans as it belongs to the horror-comedy genre. According to him, if this film turns out to be a success at the box office, the audience will also get to see its sequel. DD Returns will release on July 28.
On being asked whether he will direct his films or not, Santhanam said that there is still some time for direction. The Oru Kal Oru Kannadi actor said that he is looking forward to playing a variety of characters on the celluloid. Santhanam also had a suggestion for the filmmakers. He added that they should avoid incorporating scenes of drinking and smoking in the movies.
One of the reporters asked the actor about Tamil Nadu Excise and Prohibition Minister S Muthusamy’s comment on drinking. The politician had said that people into heavy work such as sanitation workers who drink early in the morning should not be spoken ill of. Santhanam smiled and dodged the question saying that this press conference is focused on his upcoming film DD Returns.
Besides DD Returns, Santhanam will also act in the film Vadakkupatti Ramasamy, written and directed by Karthik Yogi. The film boasts an impressive cast starring Megha Akash, John Vijay, MS Bhaskar and others. Produced by People Media Factory, Vadakkupatti Ramasamy is currently in the production process.
