</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span></span></div><div class="body" style="color: red; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><i style="outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Actor Suriya was on a quick trip to Mumbai with wife Jyothika, daughter Diya and son Dev — The purpose was to sign on the dotted line as the brand ambassador of Close Up toothpaste, a Unilever brand, and to shoot for its ‘Ek Din Achanak' ad campaign. The commercial will go on-air in mid-June.</span></i></div></div><div class="body" style="color: red; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><i style="outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We caught up with the actor in the middle of a hectic day. Excerpts.</span></i></div></div><div class="body" style="margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><b style="outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Being a popular actor from Tamil cinema, you must have been approached by several brands to be its ambassador. Why Close Up?</span></b></div></div><div class="body" style="color: red; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My association with the brand actually goes back a long way, much before I signed on or even thought I would be signed as the brand ambassador. In school, my friends and I were fascinated by this red gel toothpaste in the market. It was a big novelty then — toothpaste in gel form, and I started using it. It was a regular feature in my mornings, till I started travelling more often and used whatever was available. Till something happened to make me realise my folly and I went back to it.</span></div></div><div class="body" style="margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><b style="outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And, that was?</span></b></div></div><div class="body" style="color: red; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was shooting for my first film, and I managed pretty much everything except cosying up to my co-star. My director was at his wits' end, and told me romance was something I needed to master. Then he shifted the heroine out of her place and sat there to enact the scene. It was a singularly most embarrassing moment when the director asked me if I'd had biryani for lunch! I immediately switched back to Close Up…</span></div></div><div class="body" style="margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><b style="outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">You must be happy you are connecting with Hindi-speaking audiences too with this campaign.</span></b></div></div><div class="body" style="color: red; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Definitely. But, I think after ‘Ghajini' and ‘Rakht Charitra', audiences up North too are familiar with me. People recognise me as the one from the original ‘Ghajini', and I'm happy about it.</span></div></div><div class="body" style="margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><b style="outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Was ‘Rakht Charitra' a wrong choice?</span></b></div></div><div class="body" style="color: red; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Not at all. I was impressed with the way my character was etched out. I was very charged about doing it. It may not have done well, but I am very satisfied with the way it (my role) turned out.</span></div></div><div class="body" style="margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><b style="outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What about your innings in Bollywood?</span></b></div></div><div class="body" style="color: red; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I'd have done ‘Rakht Charitra' in any language; it was made in Hindi, and I liked it. I am not too affected by its result because I'm doing very well in Tamil cinema. I get my roles and my experimental characters are well-received. So, there is no feeling of being let down.</span></div></div><div class="body" style="margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><b style="outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">How do you feel about your films remade in Hindi and marketed aggressively?</span></b></div></div><div class="body" style="color: red; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A lot of that is happening now — first ‘Ghajini', then ‘Khakha Khakha' (‘Force') and ‘Singham'. I am happy for them...</span></div></div><div class="body" style="margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><b style="outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Have you been approached for the same role in Hindi?</span></b></div></div><div class="body" style="color: red; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have been approached by several filmmakers here, but it is a question of time, really. I have so much work in Tamil films that about 10 months in a year are occupied. It is a little too much to expect me to squeeze in a Hindi film in the remaining time!</span></div></div><div class="body" style="margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><b style="outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Looks like you'd rather give your time to family</span></b></div></div><div class="body" style="color: red; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yes. In fact, my family has flown down with me to Mumbai. Jyothika and I are in the process of enrolling our children into some summer camps so that their vacation is fun-filled. They are with their grandma (Jyothika's mother), and are going to stay for some more time.</span></div></div><div class="body" style="margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><b style="outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Next up?</span></b></div></div><div class="body" style="color: red; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: initial;"><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am doing A.R. Murugadoss' ‘7am Arivu'. I am glad to be working with him again after five years.</span></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
