Silambaron TR Interview: On Kamal Haasan’s ‘Thug Life’ and Ashwath makes ‘Fanboy Sambavam’ with Marimuthu

One moment could feel gravitational when Silambaron TR made his grand entry in Mani Ratnam’s audio launch Ponniyin Selvan 2 In 2022. This was the first major public appearance of the star, as ‘ātman’, a new version of Simbu, which embraced spirituality and returned to the headlines after a lullah phase marked by box office, controversies and fitness concerns. But who expected that in an incident of Kamal Haasan, R Rahman and Vikram’s choice, Simbu gets the most loud applause, a clip that went viral on the Internet. While Naysayers hung their heads in mistrust, their annual-vitas Fandam took social media from the storm. Dawned after a new symbu era ManduThe actor is different from the young man we knew ManmadanAnd this moment said how the Tamil audience respected its heroes and assured that they are really a good return.

On one hand, Simbu is not sure about all this attention on its return. Citing how the legends have hanged the lull steps in every region, he blames social media frenzy for flying out of this ratio. It is not to say that he is not grateful for this love. He knows that he has a very loyal fan base – “There is a saying about leaving a sinking ship about mice; so his loyalty does not show who I am, shows who they are,” they say – but they met in the reception ceremony PS 2 The event was not just with his fans. PS 2 His film was not either. “Seeing someone gets faith in people, and this is what I saw there. It felt that the general public was telling me, ‘Hey, we respect what you do, and we want to give you back to that honor.’ “No, but it gave me confidence, and I realized that there was no point in looking back in the past. I realized that I should do what is necessary without expecting anything back. “

For the first time in that event, seeing meat and symbu in the blood also brought me memories of the time when they made an unbreakable grip on the youth. The boys had trouble wearing Star’s signature wire restband in school, while donating headband became a popular style statement. Even today, a generation of youth is watching him, something that he says that he has only made him more responsible. “When I was too young, I did not know about the kind of films I was doing or those films communicated to the young audience,” they say, should not interfere in my craft before emphasizing this responsibility. “See, roughly, I avoid excessive use of oath words, violence and glamor, and I have not smoked too much Idhu Namma AlooBut then, if a character needs to smoke or be violent, I have to do this. For example, how would it be if I played a negative role. Whatever we can do, call on how much we are involved in those things. ,

His role in Mani Ratnam’s much awaited film thug LifeTitle by lotus, the promo seems quite violent than the material. doing thug LifeSymbu says, most of the actors satisfy the desire. “Looking like movies Thevar MaganWhile two generations of stars must have acted together, any actor must have wished to be such a film, and these films are also standing on the test of time. “This happened for him in a lotus Haasan-Starr, he said that when I was a child, see it, even if we need references for it, say, a dialect, a walk, or a specific form, we took inspiration from his filmography.” The actor is awe of how the actor is banged from his point of view for experienced stars and crafts. This is about doing something interesting, something different and better than the previous film. ,

At one level where most of Eco Chambers can get stuck inside, Kamal has managed to anchor in his journey as an artist. He calls himself a student of cinema who is valid to Simbu. “Look, I can say that I am a student because I have a long way to go, but if Kamal sir still feels like a student, it means that I am also on the right path.” Even the opportunity to be part of thug LifeHe says, there is a verification, “I was a child artist for 40 years for all efforts.

Role of Simbu in thug LifeHe says, ‘Mas’ and ‘class’ balance. “I am a peculiar hero with the audience who likes these two schools of acting. You can’t call me an out-and-out classy actor, nor am I just after the month. I can both, both of them can do these schools to balance the roles. It is very good to do these schools. In these schools. thug LifeYou will find a classy, ​​performance-oriented symbu and a raw and stylish symbu. ,

STR is also returning to a Mani Ratnam set, after about seven years Cheka Chivantha VanamA film during which the star realized that he was struggling to perform well due to his then poor physical form. He had earlier revealed that he broke after shooting an action scene in that film and this experience led him to a transformative journey. thug LifeAlso, is full of action, and Mani Ratnam was happy about how STR now moves and dances, Star says. “He would enjoy seeing me performing and will say,” You look good. “Fantastic.” So I realized that it is more to go through the journey of weight loss that we are doing. “You can be surprised to hear Simbu saying that the way he was a body-rhetoric was not right,” being an actor and some truth since losing his fitness. “

But in places like Hollywood, almost a routine is losing weight and does not have room for roles? Perhaps this poisoning indicates something to see how Indian audiences are seen by their stars. Simbu does not think so; He says that it is a jealousy to find a reason for trolling it is a case of some punching. “My weight gain was initially for a film, and if necessary, I could bring myself back to shape. But till then, I had already given a window of opportunity to those who were looking for a reason to pull me down. But I realized that I could not complain about it, and this is the place where this fitness journey started.”

This is not just his fitness; Anything about Simbu and everything is put under media scanner. After facing immense criticism and struggling with many controversies, Simbu began to follow the Buddhist theory, which “when you get something (here, criticism), it becomes yours. But if you reject it, it stays with them.” But certainly a strange negative review for a film or a comment on their acting will have to break their rescue, right? “Earlier, the results of my films impressed me, but I used to find ways to channels that I do further. But I have realized that we cannot seek verification from successes and failures.

Simbu has also been criticized as an actor, who does not enough enough, as a star who is sleeping on his talent. The actor believes that this is because he is not yet getting a solid script that can do it best. “There is no place to give its full potential in a script that no actor can pull”. Simbu has pinned his hopes on his upcoming film with director Desuth Periasamy to do so. “But see, even to go on the floor, we have been waiting for two years now. Look at Kamal Sir; he has done about ten such films, like, like Atmosphere Or DasavatharamBut there is a long list of films that he could not physical. “The star has no qualification to say that every time he wants to do such a project, he finds that his market cannot then maintain the scale of that project.

Late, many A-list Tamil stars have surfaced with films-like PETA, Vikram And The good, the bad, the ugly – That is dubbed as Fanboy sambavamsThese films include aspects that please the dye-hard fans of those stars, such as in the previous films of Camos and Callback the Stars. Simbu’s upcoming film with Ashwath Marimuthu also indicates such a film; The first look poster featured the star wearing a star band, bracelet and check mark tattoo. RoughThrowing his iconic ‘box’ symbol.

“Yes, this is one Fanboy sambavamBut this will not be a film just for fans. This will become a film that does not know me that they will enjoy. Fanboy sambavams It should be so Vikram – It should not just please Star’s fans, but should be celebrated unanimously by all. “Will we also see Str as a singer?”
