VIJAY INTERVIEW FOR DECCAN CHRONICLE
When someone like a Vijay decides to visit a newspaper office, for the first-ever time in his life, there has to be a genuine reason for it. This time, it was evident; he wanted to thank Deccan Chronicle for its continued support during the Kaavalan controversy. He thanked the staff for fair and unbiased reporting.
On Heroines:
I listen to feedback carefully. Many say Asin is my best pair and I enjoy working with her.
On Politics:
Every person has a journey and a place for everything in life. Even if I was interested or wanted to do something, everything has to fall into place. This is not the right time for me. If and when I take the plunge I will be more than happy to make an announcement.
On calling on heads of state:
It is only to pay my respects. There are no political undertones to it.
I will produce films with a message. For me films are about expression and conveying thought.
On acting with other superheroes:
If someone does come with a script, I will take it up. I am not opposed to sharing screen space.
On pirated Vijay’s DVDs of Sura earning ‘4 crores:
It is not to be encouraged. Piracy is sadly a reality but we need to combat it. I hope it doesn’t happen with Velayudham.
On his vision, if he entered politics:
To always do the right thing by the country and not to be drawn into controversy or corruption.
On Bollywood:
No intentions at all. I love Tamil cinema.
On not making any effort to glam-up like other heroes:
No one ever wants to see me in glam roles. If scripts demand it, I am more than willing.
On his love life:
My wife is my friend, confidante and support system. She does a lot for me. I truly found love after marriage.
On news that shocked him:
The rape and murder of Coimbatore kids. I felt very angry about it. In such instances, the perpetrators should be given an instant death by hanging.
On the media:
I have always received a lot of support. Deccan Chronicle has been very kind to me. I read cover to cover of the paper and love reading headlines. Following Pete Sampras in his playing days used to me make me most happy.
