FACING THE CAMERA
Film directors donning the grease paint has become common now. Recently in “Irandu Mugam”, Aravindharaj did a character role. Now it is the turn of director Agathian to act in “Avargalum Ivargalum”. The only difference is the film is not directed by him, but by Veerapandian, who was an associate of director Agathian, when he directed films such as “Vanmathi”, “Gokulathil Seethai” and “Kadhal Kottai”. Veerapandian is basically a writer who has brought out a collection of short stories and two books of poetry. According to Veerapandian, the film has shaped up well and will be released soon. “Agathian plays a doctor in the film. He has ample scope to showcase his acting skill. After seeing the rushes, I felt he is not only a good director but also a fine actor who emotes well.” The film has four new faces in the lead — Vimal Natarajan, Iswarya, Subraja and captain C. Kamaraj. There is also Satheesh who acted in Thankar Bachan’s “Azhagi”.
