Cheran is a master director, chronicling human emotions in all its realism.
He has also made his mark as an actor. Having acted in three of his own films, Cheran is now naturally more confident as a performer in front of the camera.
So much so, he has evinced interest to act in others' direction too.
So far Cheran had limited himself to acting under his own baton.
Now, he has decided to go the whole hog and do film in others direction.
But, he says, he will pick and choose the roles that will suit him.
Next year he will act in three 'outside' films.
Cheran is currently acting and directing Mayakkannadi, a movie that deals with another realistic subject.
