Sai Pallavi, who is currently enjoying the success of her film Amaran, recently talked about the challenges she faced while shooting for NGK (Nanda Gopalan Kumaran). The film was directed by Selvaraghavan and starred Suriya in the lead role. In an interview with Behindwoods, the actress revealed that she wanted to quit as she felt “uncomfortable” during her initial days on the set.
Sai Pallavi said, “When I first reached the NGK set, I was quite uncomfortable because I couldn’t tell whether I was doing well or not. After each shot, Selva sir would not confirm that it was okay. Is it or not.” The Amaran actress remembered feeling lost as she was not confident with her performance.
However, Sai Pallavi shared that Dhanush reached out to her to help with the situation. He said, “Dhanush called me and asked how things were going with Selva’s shoot. I expressed my concern, and he reassured me, saying, ‘Don’t worry, he’s just testing us.’ Everything will be fine soon.”
After talking to Dhanush, Sai Pallavi felt relieved and started shooting for NGK with positive thinking. She also received constant support from her co-star Suriya on the sets of the film.
Meanwhile, Sai Pallavi is currently on cloud nine after the success of Sivakarthikeyan’s co-star Amaran. The film is approaching the Rs 200 crore club at the worldwide box office. The film, directed by Rajkumar Periyasamy, entered the Rs 100 crore club in just three days of its release. Despite tough competition from films like Lucky Baskar, Brother, Bloody Beggar, KA, Singham Again and others, the film passed the Monday test with flying colors.
Reports suggest that Amaran could become the second highest-grossing Tamil film of 2024 after Thalapathy Vijay’s GOAT.
