Feel like BR’s demeanour was very different in this interview (and I don’t mean that in a bad way). Usually it’s a “sit, back & relax”-kinda chat. This was so back-and-forth. A good interviewer adapts to the personality of the interview subject. I guess that’s what happened here.

Nice interview. I guess she kind of answered it when she talked about how much she loves Tamil mass films but I would have loved to know her thoughts on whether she considered making the film (SP) on a more pan India scale given Gopinath was well known all over the country.
