It’s a big war to get space for a small film, says Samuthirakani

New Indian Express  

Samuthirakani, the veteran actor-director who plays the lead role in the upcoming film Ramam Raghavam, had a particularly busy 2024, having appeared in as many as 14 films, including Hanu-Man, Indian 2 and Garudan. On how he came onboard for Ramam Raghavam, Samuthirakani recalls his association with debut director Dhanraj that goes back 12 years, to when Dhanraj had worked in his film Janda Pai Kapiraju. Samuthirakani remembers the Jabardasth actor as someone who “was always doing something, narrating some stories, always with a nice vibe.” Ramam Raghavam isn’t the first script that Dhanraj pitched to Samuthirakani. He told me the story and conveyed its different aspects, how it’s based on real incidents happening around us.” Samuthirakani goes on to add, “I agreed to do it right then and there.
