While he's still receiving praise for his work in a recently-released Tamil film, Kollywood actor Pasupathy has moved on and is looking forward to what the audience thinks about his two Malayalam films. The actor will be seen in M A Nishad's No 66 Madurai Bus alongside Padmapriya and Shweta Menon; and Premlal's Outsider with Sreenivasan and Indrajith.
In No 66 Madurai Bus, Pasupathy plays the lead as a convict trying to reclaim his life; while in Outsider, his role is that of the villain who tries to control another man's life.
Of the challenges involved in being part of so many south Indian film industries, Pasupathy says, "Knowing the language is extremely important as it prevents you from misbehaving with your character. Instead, it gives you control over the emotions that you are required to portray." Visibly thrilled about being a part of Mollywood, Pasupathy says, "I was impressed with the script and narration of the stories."
The actor also happens to be one of the few actors to have shared screenspace with both of Kollywood's screen icons Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan. "Kamal sir is a perfectionist. He is involved in every aspect of filmmaking. Rajini sir is more reserved and composed. Though he is keen and perceptive, he hardly shows it," he says.
