'Though my directorial skills are hailed, I want to establish myself as a successful actor', says director-turned-actor S J Suryah.
Currently busy shooting for ÂNewtonin Moonram VidhiÂ, Suryah, says, ÂInitially I thought I am not hero material. Hence I learnt the nuances of film-making and made my mark as a director. Then I made the transition as a producer quite successfully. After eight years of struggles, I managed to bring out the actor in me. Stardom has not come overnightÂ.
'I am now exploring different roles. I don't want myself to be branded as an actor, who does glamorous themes. ÂNewtonin Moonram Vidhi features me in a new role. Former Miss India Sayali Bhagat plays my heroine. It is a movie that will take me to new heights', says a confident Suryah.
He has commenced his Telugu directorial venture ÂPuli starring Pawan Kalyan. ÂI would play the lead role in the Tamil versionÂ, adds Suryah.
