Shaam usually plays the role of chocolate hero, seems to have changed this trend in this movie in which her plays the role of a fisherman. Shaam himselves comments that this film is quite tough for him for he has never performed these sort of roles in his prior films. He has done a lot of home work for his role as a fisherman in Anthony Yaar, by watching carefully the body language and movements of the fisherman folks along the Chennai coasts. With this he could gain some experience for the role in the movie. Shaam's fisherman's role will be great boost to his career. Shaam admits that he found the fisherman's role interesting. |
