Recently R Madhavan came forward to talk about rumours around him.
It has been said that earlier he had made a promise of not kissing an actress – but his onscreen liplocking with Vidya Balane was sensuous. After that he said “I never said that I will not kiss an actress. Moreover, I have not kissed Kangna in ‘Tanu Weds Manu’, not even in a single scene.
It has been said that the actor has been unhappy with the way Kangna was doing for publicity campaigns, because he was left alone. The actor says “Kangna was in Bangkok past few days, so it was necessary for her to begin promotions before she takes off, so that she doesn’t miss out. It is anyway so boring to give interviews alone, and so much fun when your co-actors are around. At times, it all depends on the PR person of the film – he/she decides what should be written about you, and not the actor. Otherwise, tell me, how could it happen that Kangna would decide the title of the film, and rather have it changed according to her convenience. In the Indian tradition, it’s the bride’s name first and then the bridegroom’s name for a wedding, which is why the film is titled “Tanu Weds Manu”, and the news reports said that the film was originally titled “Manu Weds Tanu”, and Kangna got it changed!” Madhavan also says that publicity gimmicks are required when one is out of budget but still wants to promote his film, “and I don’t need that.”
Madhavan also disclosed about the money he gets for a movie, “It’s as straight as it could be. I don’t get paid so much for my films, no matter how much people say that I am famous, successful and all that,” he also said “The income I get in South is at par with the income in Bollywood.”
Passion about biking: He has always passion about biking; he says “My dad was also a biker, so I never had to fight with my dad to get me a bike, like all teenage boys have to. But then, I also never misused what I had. I have never had any accident or mishap coz of my passion for biking. In that way, I am responsible.” He is going for a Europe tour by the end of this month, with his close friends, and that too on a bike. This is for adventure so he is not taking family with him. “I usually give my commitment for only one film a year, so that I can spend time with my family.”
