Debutant Santhanu, son of K. Bhagyaraj, discusses the pressure and excitement of his lead role in the upcoming film 'Sakkaraikatti'.
Expectations are high on debutant Santhanu even before he commences the shooting for his maiden venture Sakkaraikatti.
Since his father K Bhagyaraj is a acclaimed actor-director, people would naturally expect Santhanu to hit the target right way.
Santhanu says, 'Of course I have pressure and I have to live up the expectations of the masses. When I acted with my father as a child artiste in Vettiya Madichu Kattu, I learnt the nuances of acting. I watched my dad very close in the sets. Later when he directed Parijatham, I was almost like an assistant director to him, helping in completing the film'.
All these emboldened him to try my skills acting in Sakkaraikatti.
'I am fortunate to work with a set of highly-skilled technicians in my debut venture itself. Though I am happy, it creates some tension in me for I have to give my best in the movie.'
A nice challenge to have.
