00:00 I would like to know that compliment is very important when you work and that too the loved ones, near and dear ones.

00:08 What is Vijay sir's compliment?

00:10 That's why I didn't give the mic.

00:12 It's called Google and Internet.

00:14 Vivek sir, no.

00:16 I am very happy to answer your question but we have come here for Tua Dilbara.

00:24 Vivek, one second. That's why this is intimate. That's why I gave the mic to trust both sides.

00:30 Tamanna, my question is a little on the nose. I hope you don't mind.

00:34 The thing is, your pairing is looking obviously fantastic with Rajni sir and it looks with any hero.

00:43 When it comes to Hindi films, the moment the age gap is a bit large,

00:49 like recently we saw in Diku Bhai Cheru or with Salman Khan movies, usually there is a lot of chatter over it.

00:55 When it comes to South movies, we don't see the same chatter, be it with Rajnikanth, be it with Chiranjeevi.

01:01 Now this is not a personal thing, I just want to see about the fans.

01:04 Is it because the South heroes are put on a pedestal and they are worshipped so much so they are impervious to such criticism?

01:12 No, I think all these really big superstars understand that they are actors first.

01:17 And as an actor, your age doesn't matter. It's only in India we have this idea of age and actors being of a certain age.

01:24 Internationally, nobody asks these questions because it doesn't matter. We are an actor.

01:30 I am playing a character, Rajni sir is playing a character. He is a god. He is a demigod for the entire nation.

01:36 But still everyone is playing a character. And I feel like we as performers value that over everything.

01:43 So that is supreme. And you know what, I might be 60 and I might be still doing a song like this.

01:48 And I think if a Tom Cruise can do an action sequence at the age of 60, I want to do this song at 60 and I want to rock it even more.

02:00 And I hope people go berserk way more than they have today.

02:04 Would you like to answer Pankaj? He was worried that if you don't come.

02:09 Sir, were you worried that I won't come? I would have brought my slipper.

02:17 That was in humour.

02:20 Thank you.

02:21 Thank you.

02:23 Thank you.

02:24 (upbeat music)
