Kaakha Kaakha fame Jeevan is eagerly awaiting the release of Thirruttu Payalae. Directed by Susi Ganesan, it features Sonia Agarwal opposite him. Meanwhile Jeevan has accepted to be part of a short-film being churned out by director Naveen. As it happens, it is titled Jeevan. Naveen had earlier directed a short-film titled Arumbu, which was screened at various film fests. Jeevan is a short-film about romance and Jeevan would certainly do justice to his role, says Naveen.
Jeevan is chuffed
The success of Thiruttu Payalae has brought great joy to Jeevan. Now shooting for Thotta directed by Selvah, he says, 'any actor has to choose his films with caution to survive in this highly competitive industry.' 'After Khaakha Khaakha, I was flooded with offers to play the role of a baddie. However, I decided to wait. It (three-year wait) ended with Thiruttu Payalae. I believe in being patient and it has paid off. When Susi Ganesan narrated the story to me, I was confident that it would be successful. Due credit should be given to Susi Ganesan, the cast and crew, who toiled to make a quality movie. Jeevan says, 'I am in no rush to sign films. I accept films which has good script and storyline. I would love to do challenging roles'. 'My next release would be Thotta being directed by Selvah. The movie would be completed soon'.
