Art directors turning actorsÂ
- IndiaGlitz, [Tuesday,September 15 2009]
Industry has seen a lot of technicians who work behind the screen donning the grease paint later. Directors, Cinematographers, Still photographers, Managers, Dance choreographers, stunt masters and this list seems to grow like Lord HanumanÂs tail. And the latest to join this list are art directors.
Art director Veerasamar is the hero of the film VeerasaekaranÂ. ÂLaadam fame art director Vairabalan is also acting in an important character for the film ÂMainaÂ. Vairabalan is the art director of ÂMaina as well. Ravi Venkatraman, who won appreciations for his performance as the police officer in ÂNaadodigal is now acting in 6 projects!
Not far behind, art director Prabakar is acting in a central character in the film ÂJohnnyÂ, directed by Selva. Art director Vekatesh who started his on screen presence as a villain far before the above list has now stopped acting says sources. Not to forget our senior art director GK who remains as a busy actor in small screen even today.
A lot more to join this list in the near future and this is a healthy trend in fact, we say!
