Potpourri of titbits about Tamil cinema

I’ve acted as hero in more than 100 films. I had paired with Jayalalitha in more number of films. It would be a real challenge to work with her as she was very knowledgeable and talented. During the shooting of the film “Baghdad perazhagi”, when I was afraid to go near the lion, Jayalalitha was brave enough to stroke it. During the production of the film “Magarasi”, I had chickenpox. I told Mr. Devar, the producer, to replace me as I was down with the disease. But Devar waited till I was completely cured and finished the film with me. I remained grateful to him till end for this noble gesture and great heart,” said Ravichandran in a nostalgic tone.

Even today, Ravichandran is getting offers for acting. But he accepts only those roles that have some meaning and importance. His ambition is to see his son become a successful hero like him. Let us pray that his wish is realized soon!
