Karu PalaniappanÂs gift to Meenakshi
- IndiaGlitz, [Monday,March 22 2010]
We all know Karu Palaniappan, who has directed films like ÂSivappathikaram and ÂPirivom SanthippomÂ, is turning an actor with a movie titled ÂMandhira PunnagaiÂ, in which he is acting opposite Meenakshi of ÂKaruppasami Kuthagaitharar fame.
The filmmaker, who is keen at getting the act right from his colleagues, has recently roped in a Tamil pundit to teach the language to Meenakshi, circles close to the unit say.
ÂSince Palaniappan found it little hard to work with Meenakshi due to the language barrier, he decided to make the Bengali beauty learn Tamil. Hence he searched for a Tamil teacher who knows Bengali well and finally zeroed in on one, they say.
Sources add: ÂMeenakshi is now happily learning Tamil and is able to converse with others in the south Indian language. She is a quick learner and you could soon see her speaking in Tamil with everyone.Â
