Shankar Panicker bats for Fan Clubs to survive
- IndiaGlitz, [Tuesday,December 22 2009]
Shankar Panicker, is of the strong opinion that it is very much necessary to have fanÂs associations to survive in the film industry. The actor, who turned director with ÂKeralotsavam 2009Â seems to take signals from Tamil film world very seriously.
Shankar debuted as a hero in ÂManjil Virinja Pookkal in the early 80s regrets not heeding to the advice of his friends to have his fans association then. Had he done that he feels he wouldnÂt have faded out as an actor. It may be an irony o note Mohanlal who played villain to Shankar in ÂManjil Virinja Pookal went on to become one of the biggest super stars of Malayalam film industry.
