Vishal Is Eagerly Waiting For The Release Of Avan Ivan

Vishal is eagerly waiting for the release of Avan Ivan. Not just it is directed by Bala and his co-star is Arya, but he appears in a different role --- that of a man with squint eye in the movie.

Talking about Bala, he says, ’each director has his own style. Bala stands out, because he waits. Even if it takes a month for a specific shot/scene, he wants the best from his actors. His style of filmmaking for me was like graduating from Harvard; and it gives meaning to the word actor’.

He says, ’more than the subject, it was the portrayal of the character that was challenging. This was the maximum I could push myself as an actor and as an individual; I will never do such a role again in my career’.

The toughest challenge in the movie was playing the role of a squint in the movie. He says, ’my character has a squint throughout the film. I knew before we began filming that this would be the first time in the world an actor had to squint right through the film and this had me very excited.

We are in the process of applying to the Guinness Book of Records. I met my doctor before filming, and he thought I was crazy; I suffered from severe headaches all through the making of the film. But I did it out of the passion I have for cinema, and the love I have for the director’
