Dhanush, who is on a whirlwind tour across Tamilnadu to promote his recent-release 'Padikathavan', is happy with the audience response for the film.

He says, 'I thank my fans for making this a successful outing. Due credit should be given to director Suraj and all my co-artistes in the film.'

On his next venture, he says, 'I am acting in my brother Selvaraghavan's 'Ethu Maalai Nerathu Mayakkam'.

Again, I have a very fun-loving, carefree character in the film. Currently, I am working in the Telugu remake of 'Arya', which is yet to be titled in Tamil. Yaradi Nee Mohini's director Jawahar is directing the film. Shriya plays my heroine. Devi Sri Prasad is scoring the music. It will be released in May 2009'.

Queried how he selects his films, the lanky actor says, ' good screen play, characterization and How far I can relate myself to the role are the key factors. These factors play their part before I take up a film.'
