This stalwart of Tamil cinema has many passions and other than his family, Tamil literature is at the top of the list. “I just happened to start reading Kambar Ramayanam by chance when I was invited as a guest speaker in 2007 for Madurai Kambar Kazhagam. I prepared a short speech and it sparked from there,” reminisces Palanisamy Rakkia Gounder, better known to the world as actor Sivakumar. When asked about the proudest and happiest moment in recent times, he says, “It was in 2008, in the month of May. I was invited for a talk in Chennai for about an audience of 50 people on Kambar Ramayanam. It was taped and recorded with very poor audio quality. I received a call the next day from a gentleman in Vancouver. He introduced himself as a Canadian national and it was lunch hour for them when he played my recording (the one recorded the previous day) and said about a thousand odd people had thronged to listen to it.

"I loved learning circus tricks" - Surya

Image
Suriya is truly excited about his upcoming film 7Aum Arivu in which he plays the role of a trapeze artiste cum animal trainer. The unit is currently shooting at Great Bombay Circus in Coimbatore. Suriya will be performing all the circus acts himself without using a double in any of the sequences. The actor is practising hard to get his body language right. He can now walk the trapeze, blow fire out of his mouth and juggle with six balls. “I stayed with a circus. Do you know there are only about seven or eight companies remaining in the country? It’s frightening how popular entertainment like television has ousted its traditional counterparts. I loved learning circus tricks, specially jugglery. I don’t want people to think it is special effects,” Suriya said.
