“My fans loved 'Rathnavel Pandian,' as they love mass, but 'Theeran' ga...” — Karthi Quote

My fans loved 'Rathnavel Pandian,' as they love mass, but 'Theeran' gave me complete satisfaction.

I'm very selective about my scripts and about how I am projected on the screen.

I always remember what my dad told me when I decided to turn into an actor. He was emphatic that whatever I do, I should get accepted by the audiences who watch my films.

I would say I was not working in the real sense in 'Paiyaa.' After doing very heavy scenes in my first two films, in 'Paiya,' I was romancing a girl, talking all sorts of funny things, and doing all light things just as if I were not acting!

'Dev' is a love story but isn't about romance. It is also about loving friends as well as family and loving every moment of life.

I only go to mass when somebody asks me, but when I get in trouble I call for a priest.

You can't create a mass market if you don't have a common standard.

I'm not really a mass market writer.

I love small weird art movies, and I love free mass entertainment.

I suppose what's so amazing about working at the National Theatre is that, because it's a subsidized theatre, you're not trying to create a product that's going to have a mass market in order to make the money back.
