When I started as a child actor, my father didn't tell me anything.

No good actor ever stops learning. He is constantly evolving.

Even when I turn 60, they'll call me a child actor.

Adolescence is a tough one to be a child actor.

I was never a child actor. I was a child performer.

We were five kids at home, and my mother and grandmother ensured that we all had a very grounded upbringing in Madras. Even in school, I never used to tell anyone that my dad was an actor.
