00:00 It's like exact opposite.
00:01 What do they think about Vijaydevar Kondal outside?
00:04 And the real person who he is.
00:06 Okay.
00:06 He's a softie.
00:07 Okay, all the parents will be writing now.
00:10 Everything.
00:11 Please.
00:11 Already my daughter.
00:13 I might marry in 2-3 years.
00:15 You are so...
00:16 He has no bad habits.
00:21 Seriously.
00:22 This is an information to all the girls out there.
00:24 He has zero bad habits.
00:26 I was like, what?
00:28 Like...
00:29 So, after doing this movie, you would have changed your opinion?
00:35 Not after doing this movie.
00:36 Some practical reasons.
00:37 I was like, I think marriage is like a nice happy thing.
00:41 Discipline.
00:42 He's getting married this year.
00:43 And yeah, his discipline is inspiring.
00:46 They'll say 2 o'clock by 2 o'clock, be ready, short ready or something.
00:51 I don't mind coming at 2.10 or 2.20.
00:53 I'm like, it's okay.
00:54 First of all, I know they won't be ready.
00:57 I know that.
00:57 She also knows that.
00:59 But she'll start panicking.
01:01 At 1.55, she'll be like, oh no.
01:03 Initially, me and Shiva, our communication was not easy.
01:12 Very crude, harsh.
01:14 I don't know how I don't communicate.
01:16 Sam will tell me, this is how we have to say it.
01:19 Not like this.
01:20 And a lot of things got done because of her.
01:23 Now they have become best friends.
01:24 There's Aya and Aya.
01:27 (upbeat music)
01:30 (speaking in foreign language)
01:34 (speaking in foreign language)
01:38 (speaking in foreign language)
01:42 (speaking in foreign language)
01:46 I'm so happy to have you both here.
02:05 Thank you so much.
02:05 And as usual, you guys look stunning.
02:07 - Thank you, and so do you.
02:09 You look stunning.
02:10 - Thank you, so happy to see you.
02:12 (speaking in foreign language)
02:16 - So this is me, Kiki.
02:35 (speaking in foreign language)
02:39 (speaking in foreign language)
02:42 - I'm understanding everything you're saying.
02:59 Very nicely you're speaking.
03:00 Correct pace for me.
03:02 Not too complicated words.
03:03 (laughing)
03:04 I'm understanding everything, actually.
03:06 - Okay, I'm just starting.
03:07 (speaking in foreign language)
03:11 - How do you handle this female attention?
03:21 First tell me that.
03:22 - I don't have to do anything.
03:24 - Always calm and composed you are.
03:27 (speaking in foreign language)
03:31 - You know, not only girls, even boys are crazy over you.
03:34 I don't know how.
03:34 - Are you?
03:35 - I'm serious.
03:36 - The way he's dressing, the way he's carrying himself.
03:39 (speaking in foreign language)
03:40 - I think I'm just at their age group.
03:43 We are in the same age.
03:45 Like all these young girls, these boys and me.
03:48 Everyone else has gotten married
03:49 or they've all been there for a while.
03:52 I think I'm just fresh.
03:53 - Too humble.
03:54 - Too humble, na?
03:56 - Isn't it practically that?
03:57 - So you're trying to say aunties, uncles and all
03:59 don't like you?
04:00 - If when I turn 50, if this is still there about me,
04:05 I'll think it's me.
04:06 - So that time I'll ask you this question.
04:07 - That time you ask, that time I'll be like,
04:09 it's just genetic, God given, whatever.
04:12 Right now I think it is a phase that happens to be around me.
04:17 (speaking in foreign language)
04:19 - Females, too much of attention.
04:22 And coming to our Chennai ponnu, Samantha,
04:24 (speaking in foreign language)
04:27 Any news or any updates about Samantha,
04:30 it creates a buzz all over.
04:31 (speaking in foreign language)
04:32 - Sometimes not such a good thing.
04:33 (laughing)
04:35 - No, but it's okay, whatever you do, it becomes famous.
04:38 (speaking in foreign language)
04:42 - Thank you.
04:46 (speaking in foreign language)
04:50 - So happy and most sensational,
05:00 India's most desirable woman.
05:01 You deserve that.
05:03 So anything comes your way, you handle it with a smile.
05:07 Good or bad, you take it with a positive smile.
05:09 How do you handle that?
05:11 Where does that strength come from?
05:12 (speaking in foreign language)
05:17 (speaking in foreign language)
05:21 - People tend to rise above their capabilities.
05:41 (speaking in foreign language)
05:46 - I don't have like a guide or a book
05:48 with all the answers to everything.
05:49 - Okay, so experience talks.
05:51 - Experience.
05:52 - Yeah, that's very nice.
05:53 (speaking in foreign language)
05:54 God bless.
05:55 And coming to Kushi,
05:56 (speaking in foreign language)
06:02 I'm wishing you all happiness from here on.
06:08 - Thank you.
06:08 (speaking in foreign language)
06:10 Okay.
06:11 (speaking in foreign language)
06:13 Kushi, yeah.
06:14 (speaking in foreign language)
06:15 How special is Kushi?
06:17 Start off with you.
06:18 - It's a really happy film for me.
06:23 It's a really good thing that came into my life
06:25 because at one point I was resisting love stories.
06:29 I was not wanting to do them consciously,
06:32 but due to some reasons I had to do it.
06:36 And it was a script that I loved
06:39 and still didn't want to do it
06:40 just because I wanted to be stubborn
06:43 and not do love stories.
06:44 But sometimes you have to get out of your own way
06:47 to do something good.
06:48 And the universe made me do this.
06:51 And I'm really happy that I was a part of this film,
06:53 this team, this story.
06:55 And I think it's a really nice story.
06:58 It's an important story to be a part of
07:01 because what will get communicated
07:04 through the film on September 1st
07:06 is something that's relevant to everyone.
07:07 - Yeah.
07:08 - Irrespective of your religion, caste, economic status.
07:13 These are feelings that all of us experience in life
07:16 and the opinions that are there.
07:19 I think all of us should listen to it
07:20 and make your own opinion.
07:22 But I think it was a really nice film to be a part of
07:25 and I'm very happy that I did it.
07:27 I'm a very happy man today.
07:29 - Nice. Very good.
07:30 And how about you?
07:31 How special is Kushi?
07:33 - Usually when I select films, I think about it.
07:41 It's not like I have to make a lot of films in a year.
07:46 I don't have a checklist.
07:51 - Okay.
07:51 - I wait. I'm patient.
07:53 I'm patient for good scripts.
07:54 So, Kushi.
07:58 When he told me this story,
08:01 at first it felt like a normal love story.
08:05 But suddenly the film becomes so much more than just a love story.
08:10 - Actually, why didn't you tell me this before?
08:15 Why didn't you make a film like this before?
08:17 Actually, this happens to everyone.
08:20 Everyone has this question.
08:23 You know, questions about God,
08:26 questions about our destiny, about karma.
08:32 When we face difficulties, we ask ourselves,
08:40 "Is our destiny already predestined?"
08:42 Or, "Do we have full control over it?"
08:45 "Is God part of it?"
08:47 We've all asked this question.
08:49 - Definitely.
08:50 - Shiva, our director, has done a family drama in a beautiful way.
09:00 So, I think that,
09:02 whether you are religious or not,
09:05 everyone will connect with this film.
09:07 - Yeah, for sure.
09:08 It's just a beautiful story about differences and similarities at the same time.
09:18 Between people, between families,
09:20 and how you learn to live with each other's beliefs,
09:24 even though you might not have the exact same beliefs.
09:29 So, I think that it's a complicated story,
09:32 but it's simple, beautiful, and relatable.
09:35 - Yeah, you can tell from the trailer itself.
09:37 It's very colorful, very cute.
09:38 It has all the emotions.
09:40 There's love, newly wedded couple,
09:43 parents' emotions, caste, everything.
09:46 We want to know more about it.
09:49 That's how much curiosity this film creates.
09:52 - Yeah, without fear, the director has told the entire story in the trailer.
09:57 Because there is so much to this film.
10:00 There are so many layers.
10:01 Each layer gets peeled through the film.
10:03 This is what the film is.
10:07 If you had seen the trailer,
10:10 you would have known the whole story.
10:13 It's pretty clear.
10:15 But there are so many layers,
10:17 and so many fresh moments and scenes through the film
10:24 that get peeled layer by layer.
10:26 - So, we'll get to know more as we watch it.
10:29 - Definitely.
10:29 - You've played many roles,
10:32 and we've seen a lot.
10:34 Everything you do in the film is related to real life, right?
10:37 They're shooting realistic things that are relatable.
10:40 So, in this film, Kushi,
10:42 do you relate to any real life characters?
10:45 - For me, a lot of...
10:47 - A lot of what?
10:48 Tell me.
10:50 It'll be interesting to know.
10:52 - As in, like...
10:55 Kushi, a lot of the romance,
10:57 the love that is there,
11:00 it comes from who I am as a person.
11:02 It comes directly from my life.
11:04 That is the kind of person I am.
11:07 So, that comes from my life.
11:08 So many of these reactions,
11:12 Vipalav has.
11:13 Like, I know that in fights,
11:15 I've been like,
11:16 "Nan oodhulai thalli."
11:17 What is it in Tamil?
11:19 - (laughs)
11:21 "Enna vittu thayi."
11:22 But it's not like...
11:24 - It's not the exact translation.
11:26 - "Enna vittu thayi."
11:28 - Yeah, I'm just like, "Leave me alone."
11:30 And if they say, "What? You want me to leave?"
11:31 I'm like, "Just leave me for now."
11:33 - You can't say that to him, right?
11:34 - "Leave me alone for some time."
11:35 - "You want me to leave completely?"
11:37 "Enna naa pottumalai."
11:39 "Leave me now."
11:39 - Yeah, it's like, "Leave me for now."
11:41 So, I've had these...
11:42 So, I react very similarly
11:46 in lots of situations.
11:47 So, it's very personal.
11:49 I know that,
11:49 just that I've not been married.
11:53 Other than that, a lot of it comes from my life.
11:57 - So, loving Vijay Devarkonda, basically.
12:00 Lot of love.
12:01 - Yeah, it's my kind of romance.
12:04 - Your kind of romance.
12:05 Not the point.
12:06 - Yeah.
12:06 - Okay, you tell me, Sam.
12:08 What do you think is similar to your real-life character?
12:12 - I think moments like this will be in every relationship.
12:17 - Yeah, everyone's like that.
12:17 - Every marriage.
12:18 - When I see those five scenes,
12:20 it's like me and your husband, Shantanu, are fighting.
12:23 - Yeah, it was like that.
12:24 First, it was a lot of lovey-dovey.
12:26 When we got married for the first time,
12:27 after that, it was dumb-dim.
12:28 - Dumb-dim.
12:29 - Same.
12:30 Actually, the director has taken it that well.
12:33 - Absolutely, yeah.
12:34 Yeah, I think Vijay had said this before too,
12:38 that everyone now, those memes,
12:41 it comes more from the fight part of the trailer,
12:45 not from the...
12:45 So, they relate to that a lot.
12:49 They don't, the little issues that happen post-marriage.
12:53 So, yeah, definitely,
12:55 he has said it very realistically.
12:59 - Yes.
13:00 - I think, when we were shooting,
13:04 always, I expected,
13:08 "Okay, this scene came out well today."
13:11 "The scene should be like this every day."
13:13 "It should be so realistic every day."
13:17 You know, especially when you have a really good actor
13:19 who has a co-star.
13:22 So, for romantic and for emotional scenes,
13:26 you know, it works like magic.
13:29 - Yeah.
13:30 - So, I agreed,
13:32 "Okay, this scene came out well today."
13:35 "It should be like this every day."
13:36 And every scene of Kushi, I felt that,
13:40 that in the scene,
13:41 exactly, "How should it come?"
13:43 "It has to be like this."
13:45 And I was sure throughout,
13:48 even though we took breaks in between,
13:50 finally, when we came back and we did a scene,
13:54 it was always, it always worked.
13:56 - Lovely, lovely.
13:58 Because, you said you have a great actor,
14:01 he too has a great co-star,
14:03 and this is your second time pairing up, right?
14:05 - I think so.
14:06 - Second time.
14:07 - Yeah, yeah, second time.
14:08 - How is it working together again?
14:09 - The first time, I forgot.
14:11 - You forgot?
14:13 - It was not a full arc.
14:18 It was a small bit.
14:20 So, this was like,
14:21 first,
14:22 - Full fledged.
14:24 - And then, there's love,
14:26 there's intensity, there's emotions.
14:29 So, arc was longer and bigger.
14:32 - Okay.
14:33 - Of performance.
14:34 - Okay.
14:35 So, tell us about your director,
14:37 Mr. Shiva Vagal.
14:39 - He's a,
14:43 Sam has worked with him before,
14:44 and they've given a blockbuster film.
14:46 This is the first time I'm working with him.
14:48 I haven't seen any of his previous work.
14:50 - Okay.
14:50 - But, I loved the story when he told me,
14:54 and he's like,
14:55 I can see, you know, since the last one month,
15:00 every time I call him,
15:01 because the post-production is going on,
15:03 and we are going towards the release.
15:06 Every time I call him and I'm like,
15:08 how is it going?
15:08 Is this ready? Is this ready?
15:10 And I say, bye.
15:12 He ends the call with,
15:13 September 1st, I want to see a smile on your face, bro.
15:17 - Oh, sweet.
15:18 - That has become his bye.
15:20 Every time he says bye,
15:22 it's like, September 1st,
15:24 I want to see smiles on all your faces,
15:25 your face, Sam Garu's face,
15:27 your parents' face.
15:28 I want to see a smile.
15:30 Only that I'm working for.
15:31 - Oh, sweet.
15:31 - So, I know how much I can see,
15:34 I can feel his love.
15:35 He doesn't have to tell me.
15:36 I know he loves me.
15:36 I know he loves Sam.
15:38 - Okay.
15:39 - She's his favorite actress.
15:41 - Yeah.
15:41 - He's one big,
15:42 he's a huge fan of Sam.
15:46 So, I know he loves us
15:47 and I know how passionate he's about this film.
15:50 He's 24/7 just on the job.
15:53 So, I'm very happy with Shiva
15:56 and I have a genuine love for him.
15:58 - Lovely, lovely.
16:00 What about you?
16:00 You're working for the second time, right?
16:02 - Yeah.
16:02 Actually, I think,
16:06 when I heard Kushi,
16:08 just like Vijay,
16:09 I was in a different mind space,
16:10 you know,
16:11 family man,
16:12 like action,
16:13 thrillers,
16:17 all of that.
16:18 Now, in the love story,
16:19 and the frame of my life.
16:22 - Why are you all backing out of love stories?
16:24 Why?
16:25 - I think she did too much.
16:26 - Too much?
16:27 Too many love stories.
16:28 And I'm scared.
16:29 Because,
16:30 now, you know,
16:32 what happens is,
16:33 it's the same expression, right?
16:36 - Yeah, that's right.
16:37 - It's the same expression.
16:38 - It's the same love, right?
16:39 - Yeah, it's the same.
16:41 - It's just the air that changes.
16:42 It's just the air that changes.
16:43 What new can I give to a film?
16:45 You know, in a love story,
16:47 when you do so many love stories,
16:48 I think I've done some
16:50 five love stories.
16:51 - See, I don't think the people will remember
16:53 all the love stories that she did or I did.
16:56 But we live that, no?
16:58 And you live through the experience of shooting that.
17:01 Some might not have been good.
17:02 I personally did a love story,
17:05 a couple of films back,
17:07 that I didn't like the experience of making that film.
17:10 Every day I didn't like it.
17:12 So that's why I got agitated.
17:13 I was like,
17:14 "Screw these love stories, I don't want to do."
17:16 So it came from that space
17:17 that I was tired of this stuff.
17:19 I know that I fell in love with Sam,
17:24 looking,
17:26 seeing a love story of hers.
17:27 For me, any time she does a love story,
17:29 it's new.
17:30 - Yeah, fresh.
17:31 - But in her head, it is like,
17:32 "Again, I have to look at one fellow."
17:34 - "Again, I'm walking to some new..."
17:37 - He's enjoyed it so much.
17:39 - And she's reading so many books
17:41 and she's visiting so many...
17:43 She's in so...
17:44 As a person, as Samantha,
17:45 she's in a different space in life, no?
17:47 She's experiencing so many different things.
17:52 So she's finding this silly.
17:54 But it's a very...
17:55 I'm like,
17:57 other than to you and me,
17:59 not wanting to do a love story,
18:00 everyone else wants to watch it.
18:02 - Wants to watch, yeah.
18:03 - I love it.
18:03 And while making this film,
18:06 I fell in love again with love stories
18:09 and the drama and stuff.
18:12 So for me, it's amazing to have Samantha
18:15 back in a genre that we all fell in love
18:17 with her for.
18:20 And recently, I haven't got to see her
18:22 in this space,
18:24 in the last couple of years, at least.
18:26 So it's like a very big thing
18:27 to see her back on screen again
18:30 in this world that
18:32 we are fond of her so much.
18:33 And for me also, it's fun being back
18:36 in this space and giving people
18:37 something that they deserve and want.
18:40 - That's very true.
18:41 Like he said, it's fresh for us to see.
18:43 You've done 5-6 love stories,
18:46 what expression to do,
18:47 you're saying that.
18:48 Maybe your look,
18:50 the people who pair with you,
18:52 it all matters a lot, right?
18:54 - Definitely.
18:54 I think that my performance
18:57 has some...
19:01 good appreciation
19:02 because of the co-star.
19:05 For sure.
19:07 Because I was feeding off him
19:08 and his expressions and his reactions.
19:12 So my performance automatically
19:15 improved in this film.
19:17 I feel.
19:18 - You feel?
19:19 - I feel.
19:20 - See the modesty, right?
19:21 - I feel.
19:22 But how can you not improve?
19:26 Like from 'You've made me'
19:29 to 'You're my spring'
19:30 to 'Majili'
19:32 - You're my favourite.
19:34 - From 'Majili' to 'Kushi'
19:36 there should be some improvement, right?
19:40 So I think that that improvement
19:42 has come because of my co-star.
19:44 - Definitely.
19:44 And people are enjoying it a lot.
19:46 As a pair, you look very cute.
19:49 Very fresh and young.
19:50 It looks beautiful.
19:51 So you both should do a lot more love stories.
19:53 Please don't hate love stories.
19:54 - I'll do a few more.
19:57 - Yeah, please.
19:58 It's a request from my side.
19:59 - Fans, girls.
20:01 Girls only.
20:02 - Yeah, yeah.
20:03 I'll make him do it.
20:04 - Yeah, please, please.
20:04 - I will.
20:05 - I will make sure.
20:06 - Yeah.
20:07 - Even if you don't do it, you can do it, right?
20:09 - No, not with me.
20:11 But I will make him do it.
20:12 - Oh, stupid.
20:12 - Why like that?
20:14 So you both admire each other.
20:18 You both admire each other a lot in your work.
20:20 I can tell from your conversation.
20:22 One thing you learn from each other.
20:24 You learn a lot of things while acting.
20:26 One thing like
20:28 you can learn from Sam.
20:31 You can learn from him.
20:32 Tell me something like that.
20:33 During the shoots.
20:34 - I like his discipline.
20:38 Like, what everyone thinks outside.
20:41 They call him the rowdy.
20:44 What do you...
20:47 Everyone thinks like he's...
20:50 He's like this rebel.
20:53 - You also thought.
20:55 - No, no.
20:56 I also thought like that.
20:57 - Really?
20:58 - You will be surprised that
21:00 he's like...
21:02 He'll wake up early.
21:05 - Wow.
21:08 - I was about to say he'll wake up early.
21:09 Now he wakes up early.
21:11 He doesn't like have any vice.
21:14 No bad habits at all.
21:15 - Wow.
21:16 - He works out every single day.
21:18 His discipline.
21:19 He's so focused.
21:21 He has no bad habits.
21:24 Seriously.
21:25 This is an information to all the girls out there.
21:27 He has zero bad habits.
21:29 I was like, what?
21:30 Like, even like...
21:33 Even if it's like...
21:34 - It's sounding too good to me.
21:36 - No, no.
21:36 - I'm like, you know.
21:37 - I don't know either.
21:38 First, what?
21:39 Even if it's a rag party or something.
21:41 - I can't imagine this.
21:42 - Like a glass of wine throughout for three hours.
21:46 That will be there.
21:47 Like, even that.
21:48 Like, everybody has to force it.
21:49 - To socialize.
21:50 - To socialize.
21:52 - No, I enjoy drinking.
21:53 And not because of the films that I'm doing.
21:56 - Oh, very nice.
21:57 - He just...
21:58 - He's just...
21:59 - He's just focused.
22:01 - No, focused.
22:02 Like, focused.
22:03 I have to go to the gym tomorrow.
22:05 My body...
22:06 - But very dedicated.
22:07 - Yeah.
22:08 I have to...
22:09 Very competitive also.
22:11 And like...
22:11 So, all of this is extremely inspiring.
22:16 And no one knows this.
22:18 - No one knows this.
22:20 - He'll be at home.
22:21 He won't go out.
22:24 - I think that it's like the exact opposite.
22:27 What people think about Vijay Devarkonda when he's not at home.
22:30 And the real person who he is.
22:32 - Okay.
22:32 - He's a softie.
22:33 Family boy.
22:35 I'm just telling you to all the girls.
22:38 - Yeah, actually this is a...
22:40 - I only care all the parents will be writing now.
22:43 Please, already my daughter...
22:45 - I might marry in two, three years.
22:48 - Two...
22:48 You said this year.
22:50 - I said two, three years.
22:51 - You said this year end.
22:52 - I will marry this year.
22:52 - This is new information.
22:54 - Yeah, Vijay Devarkonda is getting married.
22:55 - Getting married in two, three years.
22:57 - Two, three years?
22:58 - No.
22:58 - This year.
22:59 - Year end.
23:00 - Two, three years.
23:01 I'm saying since...
23:02 Since I've been...
23:04 Since five years, I'm saying two, three years.
23:06 - Okay.
23:06 - This time, I think...
23:07 - This year.
23:08 - This year.
23:08 - End.
23:09 - Two, three years.
23:09 - Again two, three years.
23:10 - End.
23:11 - No, after doing this movie, you know.
23:13 Like a newly married couple and all.
23:15 You still want to get married and all.
23:16 Do you have that desire?
23:17 - I had that desire after this.
23:19 - You had that desire?
23:20 - Yeah.
23:20 - Is it?
23:21 - His girlfriend should thank...
23:23 - Thank...
23:24 - Kushy and the...
23:25 - For changing opinion on...
23:27 - Yeah.
23:28 - No, I'll tell you afterwards why I decided...
23:30 That I want to get married.
23:32 Something really changed my opinion on marriage.
23:35 - Okay.
23:36 So, after doing this movie, your opinion changed?
23:38 - Not after doing this movie.
23:39 Some practical reasons.
23:40 I was like...
23:41 I think marriage is like a nice, happy thing.
23:44 Yeah, so it was...
23:46 Was I answering any question?
23:49 - No, no.
23:49 She was like...
23:50 - Basically, her statement is...
23:52 - Discipline.
23:52 - He's getting married this year.
23:53 - Yeah.
23:54 - And yeah, his discipline is inspiring.
23:57 - Super.
23:57 So, that is the thing she's learning from you.
24:00 So, what are you learning from her?
24:02 - From Sam?
24:03 - Yeah.
24:03 - She opened me up to a lot of spirituality.
24:08 She actually...
24:10 Actually, I realized at one point that...
24:13 She was making me very calm and soft.
24:17 - Wow.
24:17 - Yeah.
24:19 One point I was like...
24:20 - Very temporarily.
24:21 - I was like...
24:22 I'm becoming very like a softy.
24:26 And then I was like, "Hello, it's not working."
24:28 - Oh, yeah.
24:29 - This is not me.
24:30 - Yeah.
24:30 - This is not me.
24:31 - I was like, "I need my anger.
24:34 You're making me too calm and too soft."
24:36 - But it's a good thing, right?
24:37 - It was good while doing Kushi.
24:40 But for life, it's not good.
24:41 - Temporary.
24:42 - Temporary.
24:44 I function off one internal...
24:47 I don't know what to call it.
24:51 - Beast.
24:51 - Yeah.
24:52 - Okay.
24:53 - He has to feed the beast.
24:54 - Yeah.
24:54 So, I need that.
24:55 And she was too much having one calming effect on me.
24:59 - One Guruji she was to you.
25:01 - Guruji type, but just like...
25:04 Too much happy, calm vibe she was giving me.
25:08 So, I was like, "Okay."
25:09 - So, you learned that from her?
25:12 - Now I have to unlearn it.
25:14 - Unlearn it.
25:15 - Yeah.
25:15 - So bad.
25:16 - This much calmness I don't want.
25:18 - You don't want?
25:18 See, that's a nice name.
25:21 Softy.
25:22 - Softy.
25:23 - Softy.
25:23 - No, no, no.
25:25 - No?
25:25 Why?
25:27 Girls will like it.
25:28 - Girls will like him whatever he is.
25:32 - Whatever, I know.
25:33 - That is very true.
25:34 - Why are we selling?
25:34 - Okay, okay.
25:35 - We're selling Kushi.
25:37 - Is this a kind of telly shopping?
25:37 - Okay.
25:38 - Telly shopping.
25:38 - Sell whatever you want.
25:40 - She's told something about you that we didn't know.
25:44 - What?
25:44 - Discipline, no bad habits, all that.
25:47 Is there anything we don't know about her?
25:49 - Oh, if there are two people who I might not be able to beat at a workout, one of them is her.
25:57 - Oh my God.
25:58 We all like, awestruck with all her workout videos.
26:00 - In Kashmir and stuff, we used to workout together.
26:03 Now we share the same trainer.
26:07 - Superb.
26:09 So even now I'm like, I hope he doesn't make me workout like her.
26:12 I'm like, I hope that he does one thing called Metcon, which is metabolic conditioning.
26:17 She works out like super intensely.
26:20 And I was just talking to, I'm shooting another film and somehow on set,
26:25 conversation about Sam came and they were asking me about her.
26:28 And I was telling them, I'm telling you now that this is, I don't know what film of hers,
26:35 I don't know.
26:37 Till today, she's like, so, like in Turkey, for example, we get one hour lunch break.
26:44 So we used to go out, me, Sam, our teams, we go out for lunch somewhere.
26:48 Outside, because you want to eat local food instead of eating set food.
26:52 They'll say two o'clock, by two o'clock, be ready, shot ready or something.
26:56 I don't mind coming at 2.10 or 2.20.
26:59 I'm like, it's okay.
27:00 First of all, I know they won't be ready.
27:03 If they say two means 2.45, three, they'll be ready.
27:07 I know that.
27:08 She also knows that.
27:10 But she'll start panicking.
27:12 At 1.55, she'll be like, "Aiyyo, aiyyo."
27:16 And one day we're returning in the car, me and her are in the car.
27:18 The set is somewhere like 150, 200 meters away.
27:24 I'm sitting, I'm like this on one side of the car.
27:27 She's sitting opposite.
27:29 They're like this.
27:29 She's sad.
27:31 She moved towards the door.
27:32 And I'm just looking at the phone.
27:34 I'm like, what, you'll get down running?
27:35 Jump out.
27:36 I'm like, running or we'll get down and go around.
27:39 Ablo, sincere.
27:40 She's obsessed.
27:42 Cinema, I think, she's obsessed by cinema and wanting everything right and wanting everything good.
27:51 Perfectionist.
27:52 It was good to have her as a partner on this film because it wouldn't have been possible
27:57 to get everything the way, be it Aaradhya, the song, be it all the conflict between the couple.
28:05 Lots of development that happens through the film.
28:10 It was important to, initially, me and Shiva, our communication was not easy.
28:16 Okay.
28:17 Because I'm one very crude, harsh, I don't know how, I don't communicate.
28:24 Is that so?
28:25 Proper channel, channel wrong.
28:27 Not that it's wrong, it's just, it's not right.
28:30 Sam will tell me, this is how we have to say it, not like this, like that.
28:35 And a lot of things got done because of her.
28:37 Okay.
28:39 And now, now Shiva just understands me.
28:42 Okay.
28:43 I don't even have to say anything.
28:44 Now they have become best friends.
28:46 There's Aaradhya and Abhi.
28:48 (Laughs)
28:50 Maybe he's rude in that tension.
28:53 No, he's not rude.
28:55 Just, he's not rude.
28:57 He's not rude.
29:01 Impatient, maybe, blunt.
29:03 Means, when you work with a new person, you'll be a little aware, right?
29:10 To find out how they are, how to work with them.
29:14 Definitely.
29:15 So, in the beginning, I've already done Majli with Shiva.
29:19 I know him, I know how he works.
29:21 His style, working style.
29:22 He was working for the first time with Vijay, a lot of expectations, a little scared.
29:27 So, it was getting miscommunicated and I could just...
29:31 Solve it, make it easy.
29:33 No, see that it was purely just like a little bit of...
29:38 How, like, is director Shiva very cool?
29:41 Yeah.
29:41 In sets, there's no tension.
29:43 He's full chill.
29:45 You can tell when you see the trailer, when you see the songs.
29:48 He's a hardcore fan of Manilakkam sir, I can tell.
29:51 The memes I saw in that were amazing.
29:53 Alaipayuthu, then Bombay, the similarity with that film, the taking, it was like that.
30:01 Did you see the memes?
30:02 Yeah, yeah, of course.
30:03 So, did he take it in that feel, completely?
30:05 Definitely, I think he's a big fan of...
30:07 I think he's a lover boy himself.
30:09 Yeah, that's right.
30:11 If you look at his hand, he has a big tattoo of his wife's name.
30:15 Oh, so sweet.
30:17 Romantic at heart.
30:19 Romantic at heart.
30:21 That's nice, and coming to the songs, my god, beautiful songs.
30:25 Enroja Ni, Engayyo Poidichu, Vairil Na Appadiyo Vairil, it's become everyone's favourite, all languages.
30:33 All languages, Aaradhiya, Kushi Padukku, title song.
30:37 Prithama Astru, Vaigrama Sollangam Ongar Rendapethi,
30:39 Song Edukamuthu, Avlo Azhagka Irkang, Rendapethu Kiyutta Irkang,
30:43 Reddy, so you have to share some experience of working with them, about the song experiences.
30:49 I had fun shooting with Brindha Master.
30:51 Okay.
30:53 Sam's job was very easy on that song, and I was very...
30:55 She's her pet, again, she's her favourite, Brindha Master's favourite, she keeps raving about her.
31:01 Such a wonderful performer of being, he'd take Udukku Madhavan.
31:05 He had to dance a lot, which he killed.
31:09 My personal favourite was Aaradhiya, because it was an emotional rollercoaster song.
31:17 It was beautiful to shoot.
31:21 It's also so important to the film, that chunk, story-wise.
31:25 It's not just a song, it tells a story, it shifts the story forward, and their journey as a couple.
31:35 It's an important song, and it shouldn't be like a choreography.
31:39 We struggled a lot for that.
31:43 It should feel like you put a camera into a newly married couple's house, and got what they were living.
31:53 It should be realistic, believable, and it should not look like beat 1, 2, 3.
32:03 We all worked on that, it was a group effort, Shiva, Vijay, and the choreographer Poni.
32:15 I think everybody had effort in this particular song.
32:21 It conveys a lot of messages.
32:23 My favourite visual is Aaradhiya.
