Vaibhav open to playing negative roles
Vaibhav’s role as Maruthupandi in Venkat Prabhu’s Chennai 600028 II: Second Innings was well received and the actor is keen to act in more such roles. “My association with director Venkat Prabhu has given me an identity in the Tamil film industry. Characters like Ramarajan, Sumanth and Maruthupandi in his movies have been welcomed by the audience and my presence as a solo hero in Kappal too enhanced my reputation as a commercial actor,” says Vaibhav, who debuted as Ram Babu in Venkat’s Saroja . Vaibhav says he is open to playing any type of role, including negative characters, as long as it gives him satisfaction as an actor.
