TV has its own charm, the reach and connects with the audience is lovely, almost as if you become a part of their daily routine.

The web is like experimenting with different ideas and scripts, which is a delight for both creator and viewer.

Films are larger than life, they envelop you. That big screen is pure joy.

You gained a lot of fame after ‘Drishyam’. How do you feel about it? How was your experience working with such an amazing cast?
