His own man, and director's too

Prithviraj’s strength is himself.

He is a highly self-motivated person, who doesn't speak his mind out.

He is also one who does not like to tread the beaten path.

In this context, it is a surprise to hear him say that he is a director’s actor.

He recently said that he is ready for any competition, especially in Tamil where he has switched over recently, as he is a director’s actor.

After a stellar performance as a suave villain in the Tamil film Kana Kandein, a red carpet welcome beckons Prithvi there.

Currently acting in a Bhagiyaraj movie besides one by art-director Muthuraj, Prithviraj, says, 'I am happy that my career has taken a smooth take-off'.

Asked whether he was aware of the stiff competition in Tamil filmdom, Prithviraj says, 'there are many talented actors like Surya, Vikram,Vijay, Ajith, Madhavan and Dhanush. I have been watching all their movies. I know what they are and their skills. As far as I am concerned, I am a director's actor'.

'It's a dream come true for me to act in Bhagiyara's film, whose movie I had watched in my younger days with my parents', he adds.

In Malayalam, too, he is happy that his Ananthbhadram is doing well.

Prithvi’s days are just about beginning.
