SENTHIL

My philosophy was simple: audiences shouldn't say that I just came, stood, and copied another comedy star. They should say 'Senthil acted in this.

I'd say that comedy is my God-given gift.

I never expected my sons to make a career out of cinema. If they are honest and dedicated in their profession, no doubt success would follow them.

I still don't know how I became famous. It all happened so fast.

I had several friends associated with the tinsel world - like A Veerapan, Bhagyaraj, R Sunder Rajan. Thanks to them, I got a few roles in films.
