Perarasu takes dig at heroines

Not just Perarasu’s heroes, but the filmmaker too is good at delivering ‘punches’. Speaking at the audio launch of ‘Aadhinarayana’, a movie starring newcomer Gajan and Meera Jasmine in lead roles, he came down heavily on actresses who fail to show interest on the films they are acting in.

“Heroines are not interested at attending the audio launch of the movies they are part of. Their only aim is to climb the ladder and cross the Rs one crore mark. Apart from showing interest at getting more salary, they should also concentrate on their movies,” the director said.

Hailing Sandhya for attending the event, Perarasu said, “The situation is different in Telugu industry, where actresses actively take part in the events related to their films. Things should change in Kollywood.”

In his address, lyricist Snehan urged filmmakers to give due importance to lyricists. Others attended the event include Silambarasan, producer of the film Balaji, director Vetri Vendhan, Tamil Film Producers Council president Rama Narayanan and Distributors association chief Kalaipuli G Sekaran.
