When you do good work amongst them, it gets noticed even though I’m the youngest on the sets and least experienced,” he said. “It was equally rewarding to work with veterans Ravikumar sir and Radikaa ma’am. Ravikumar, Radikaa Sarath Kumar and Satish, has music by Anirudh Ravichander. Despite the disaster, people were so excited to see Dhanush, and he was mobbed by thousands who showed up to watch the shooting,” he said. “We were shooting in Darjeeling a day after the Nepal earthquake. It’s always work on his mind,” he revealed.Īdith is also in awe of Dhanush’s popularity. When he’s not acting, he’s busy writing songs or doing something else. The film indeed starts of on a positive note and the fun moments involving Dhanushs. I’ve seen big actors taking a break from work to relax, but Dhanush is always working. Dhanushs Thanga Magan is a predictable family entertainer with elements to satisfy the actors diehard fans. It wasn’t easy to match his standards,” he said, adding that he’s also a workaholic. He’s a quick worker and usually doesn’t like to delay shoot. There’s so much to learn each day on the sets. “Working with Dhanush is like being in an acting workshop. He’s gung-ho and recalls working with Dhanush as great learning experience. Having starred in lead roles so far in Tamil and Telugu films such as “Inidhu Inidhua, “Katha” and “Weekend Love”, Adith is joining the big league with “Thanga Magan”. This is a family drama with quintessential elements required to appeal to the masses,” he said. I’ve always craved to do good roles and it didn’t matter whether I was playing the lead or not. “It’s not a typical Dhanush film with a villain. I play a character with negative shades,” said Adith, and clarified that his role can’t be described as the antagonist. It also features Amy Jackson and Samantha Ruth Prabhu in important roles. While VIP had brilliant songs, Thanga Magan 's music is ordinary and fails to touch our heart and it's not peppy either.He plays Dhanush’s cousin in the film, which is directed by R. VIP had a weak 'Amul' baby villain and here he has been replaced by another stone face, Adith. Just like VIP, here too we are having two heroines and a comedian. If Dhanush's mom died in VIP, here we have the actor's father dies. The major problem with Thanga Magan is the predictable screenplay, which has been written with the blockbuster Velai Illa Pattadhari template. Samantha too looks dull with her makeup but she compensated it with her performance. But one wonders why the director chose Amy ? An Indian girl would have been perfect for the role but now the character wasn't justified and looks artificial. Portions involving Dhanush and Amy will be loved by teenagers, while the scenes with Samantha will be loved by guys in their mid 20s. Although we have seen Dhanush stalking young girls in several films, he makes it interesting with every given opportunity. What its about: When you think of the Velraj-Dhanush-Anirudh combination it is obviously ‘Vellailla Pattadaari’ that you think of.But ‘Thanga Magan’ is a different attempt by the team and one needs to go in with an open mind. The film indeed starts of on a positive note and the fun moments involving Dhanush's innocent character are captivating.
