Kudos to BR.. not a single cliché question like "How was it working with Vijay or Ajith or ARR?" just the questions related to his acting method, success and failures! An eye-opener interview

GOAT interview in Tamil cinema ❤️ SJ Surya is the epitome of Self Belief - Completely believed in himself that he is a born star. Then tirelessly works towards it for decades without giving up. 🔥

[svisves]

SJS packs a ton of wisdom behind his deceptive giggles and smiles. Wonderful interview!

[anuradhapoomani]

Wonderful sir...you are such a gem. I once met you in a restaurant on outer of madurai were me and my dau went to hve eve coffee. I was able hear a loud voice resembling suriya sirs. When I looked on the direction from where the voice came, can't believe suriys sir was walking in, he was on his phone talking to someone. He came and sat on near our table. I love his films and my dau too loves, as I waved and said Good eve he did not see me since a pillar stood in between. When I looked on his side he was watching us and said good eve waving his hand. We went to his table sat opposite to him was asking about his films to act. He asked why were we both here and he told he had come to attend a mrg in madurai. He was so decent and friendly. Never thought he would be soo down to earth, he is a good director and actor. We told goodbye sir and left the restaurant. We were talking about him for the next 5 days..he is a gem...

This interview has some magic -- I am seeing it for the third time in a month, still, it gives the same vibe which I got during the first watch. SJ Suryah is at a different zone and BR rightly fed him with proper leads to take him through.

[yeyuravi]

It's a masterclass in philosophy and I'm not even going to complain❤️

[ajeshwar.l]

SJ Suryah sir should become a legend in Indian cinema. Some actors who just have fan base and maniacs for the crap they do, but this man should see the glory of it truly than others.

[sharathkumar]

This is vera level interview. And SJ is vera level actor. Especially when he says 'dialogue comes from subconscious mind' . Amazing technique.

[gowthamn]

This conversation made us relax and forget about covid thought for 1 hour, thank FCS.

[yogeshm]

Moreover his acting... I'm immensely impressed with his thinking process, confidence and idealogy...

[pushand]

Omg!!! What a crazy interview!!! S J S seems to have both buddhaesque wisdom and craziness in equal measure...
also he’s very positive and practical at the same time...
