Comedy is tough: Arya
- IndiaGlitz, [Friday,July 09 2010]
Having played serious roles in films like ÂArindhum AriyamalumÂ, ÂPattiyalÂ, ÂNaan Kadavul and ÂMadrasapattinamÂ, Arya finds it difficult to work in ÂBoss Engira BaskaranÂ, a full-length comedy movie by Rajesh of ÂSiva Manasula Sakthi fame.
The actor, who has acquired the release rights of the film from its producer K S Srinivasan, says, ÂAttempting humour in front of the camera is a gift and not everyone could do it with ease. ItÂs doubly so for a person like me.Â
Elaborating, he says, ÂWhen Rajesh enacts a scene, it would sound simple. But the real challenge is performing it before the camera with all seriousness. For a fun loving guy like me, acting in comedy scenes without laughing is a lot of hard work.Â
On ÂMadrasapattinamÂ, which is hitting screens today, he says, ÂI play Ilamparithi, a young dhobi who falls in love with the daughter of Governor of the Madras province. A twist comes to their affair when India gets independence on 15 August 1947. The film has been beautifully made by Vijay and I am eagerly waiting for its result.Â
