Vasanth Ravi on ‘Weapon’, choosing genre-specific films and dealing with hits and flops
The HinduAfter playing a rugged young man in Taramani, an assassin in Rocky, a commoner struck by the supernatural in Asvins, a cop with a superstar for a father in Jailer, and a guy intertwined in a love triangle in Pon Ondru Kanden, Vasanth Ravi is on a different mission this time around. But doing such projects early in one’s career makes for a good transition towards choosing commercial films later,” says Vasanth who confesses that despite all of this, he is not someone who plans his choices. He explained the different worlds, and how he wants to connect them and do the equivalent of Hollywood’s cinematic universes,” says Vasanth, who was initially apprehensive about how the final product would end up. The fantasy element in the film is convincing and will be presented realistically.” Vasanth also feels that the film’s strong technical crew cleared his initial apprehension. Rajakrishnan sir, who is working onKalki 2898 AD,also saw the film and said he now understands Guhan’s vision and loved the final product.” In his limited filmography, Vasanth has had a fair share of films with an ensemble cast; in Weapon, he stars alongside veteran actor Sathyaraj.
