Many of us know that Kamal Haasan is a huge admirer of Sivaji Ganesan and considers the ‘Nadigar Thilakam’ his father in film industry. In a recent online chat, Kamal has revealed some interesting things about the thespian.
Kamal said, “Many of you don’t know the fact that the great Sivaji sir doesn’t know how to count cash and was also not interested in money. When I went to his residence with the advance amount for Thevar Magan, he didn’t even get it”.
The actor-filmmaker-politician added: “He was surprised to know about my frequent travel to foreign countries on my own. Sivaji sir once told me that if someone asked him to travel to alien countries on his own, he would end up crying in the airport”.
Kamal said further; “Many of you would have heard that Sivaji sir is an one-take artist and doesn’t rehearse much. But in the shooting spot, he wouldn’t be joking around with others. He would constantly rehearse his dialogues silently.” It is to be noted that Kamal and Sivaji had acted in ‘Thevar Magan’.
