Sukumar's sweet lie to a woman!
- IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,May 10 2018]
Sukumar had to tell an elderly woman a sweet lie after watching 'Mahanati'. Upon watching the biopic, a thoroughly-moved Sukku came out and was trying to find Nag Ashwin's number so that he can call up and congratulate him.
This is when an elderly woman walked up to him from nowhere and asked him, 'Are you director, babu?'. Sukumar thought that she was asking him if he was a director. But she was trying to find out if he was Mahanati's director. When Sukumar said 'Yes' to her question, the woman hugged him and thanked him for showing Savitri's life so well.
I had tears in my eyes. I couldn't tell her I am not Nag Ashwin. I wanted to take all her love for myself. She blessed me and went away. For some moments, I wished I were Nag Ashwin, Sukumar said, recounting the incident.
