'Dev' is a love story but isn't about romance. It is also about loving friends as well as family and loving every moment of life.

So many want me to do another 'Paruthiveeran'; others are fans of my 'Siruthai' avatar. Extreme expectations, but I have to strike a balance.

I'm very selective about my scripts and about how I am projected on the screen.

In my career, I have learnt how to handle failures in a matured manner.

It is a treat to do scenes where you silently enact.

I dub only four hours a day for a Tamil film because my voice doesn't stay strong for long hours.

For me, repetition is death.

I am not adding more films to my kitty just for the sake of money; I choose my script and do it.

'Mouna Ragam' is my all-time favourite, and it will always be.

My dad was very busy with his films, and I got the opportunity to mingle with him only when I was in 10th standard. More than anna Suriya, my sister and I used to discuss many things with him. But he never, ever advised me, instead will only share his life experiences.

I met lot of fighter pilots and heard their breathtaking experiences. They risk their lives for our well being. Not many understand the risks involved.

I've not done the Jackie Chan kind of stunts.

I am a big foodie. So, dieting really puts me off!

My fans loved 'Rathnavel Pandian,' as they love mass, but 'Theeran' gave me complete satisfaction.

I've known Radhikaa akka for a long time, and have seen her perform like a pro in front of the camera. But, to work with her and mouth dialogues in her presence had me in jitters.

Actors usually feel skeptical about double hero films because one character might overshadow the other, but the late scriptwriter K. Subash has penned 'Karuppu Raja Vella Raja' in such a way that Vishal and I have equal scope in the film.

Your entire world revolves around your kid, especially when you are a dad to a girl child. Your responsibilities become more.

After I did my graduation in mechanical engineering, I got a scholarship to go to the U.S. to do my master's. So I did that. I also worked there for a while. After my master's, I did a course in Film Appreciation.

I was dying to start shooting for 'Paiyya.' I had worn no good clothes for months, and I was dying to wear good clothes. And, for 'Paiyya,' they gave me eight clothes to change in a day!

Each time when my films get released, people always compare it with my debut film 'Parutthiveeran' and comment that nothing comes near that flick.

Even for 'Paruthi Veeran,' I'd work out for six hours every day and lost 10 kg.

I always knew I wanted to be in films, but I did not know exactly what I wanted to do.

Many people tell me that my pairing with Tamannaah worked big time towards the success of 'Paiyaa.' In 'Siruthai,' our on-screen chemistry will crackle as we share a terrific rapport.

Though I have done films like 'Siruthai' with larger-than-life characters, I have more of a guy-next-door image.
