"While I was dubbing in the studio for Shalini without knowing Ajith sir was present there, he suddenly came said 'Thanks for dubbing for my wife'. he secretly murmured this in my ears . I was really surprised. Only then he said he is going to marry Shalini.

During 'Vedalam' I went to the shooting spot. When we met, he was the first to say hello. He was holding a cup of coffee in one hand and a mobile phone in another. He extended his elbow as a gesture of shaking the hand.

We had to take four-five takes for the shot. It was not the mistake of the artists involved. Stilled he kept asking sorry to me every time when we went for another take. I was simply amazed that a star like him could speak like that to a person like me."
