We all know Hari films usually portray the role of a cop in a major character and now we know why. In the recent press meet for his upcoming Vishal and Shruti Haasan starrer 'Poojai', Hari said that he wanted to be a sub inspector when he was younger.

“If you've seen Ayya, which is not an action-oriented movie, there's Prakash Raj who brings in the torture' element. Scripts demand action, and finally, the film is made keeping the audience in mind. And as far as they are concerned, they love all genres. I love action. And that's why I love police roles. The police uniform has so much value. That's the power of police. Even I wanted to become a sub-inspector before I turned my attention to the films,” said Hari.

'Poojai' is ready for a Deepavali release and about that, Hari said, "Poojai is a family entertainer. There are fight sequences. Overall, it's a romantic action flick. Shruthi Haasan has done a great job and Vishal, as always, has been perfect. My next film is with Suriya, but we haven't decided yet whether it's going to be a sequel to the Singham series. Right now, I am focused on promoting Poojai,” he added.

"When my first film Thamizh had released, I had no idea that I would get so much support from the media. Even though the film wasn't a hit, I think I got enough attention a budding director must get,” ended Hari.
