Q : Tell us about shooting for Muthukku Muthaga?

A: 'I  just did what my director Rasu Madhuravan wanted me to do. As a lovelorn girl desperate to hold the hands of her lover, I had immense opportunity to prove my acting skills. I have been receiving accolades for my performance. It was a challenging role and hopefully I did it to my best'.

Q: About Nanjupuram?

A: In Nanjupuram, I played a tribal woman. It was a de-glamourised role. The whole unit was co-operative and gave me the courage to pass in flying colours doing the role. But still my movie Azhagi is still close to my heart. It was the movie that gave me an identity. I am yearning to do such sweet roles again.
