Actress Sheela played the role of mother in the serial ‘Pandyan Stores’. He also acted in serials like Bhakyalakshmi and Bharathidasan Colony. She is actor Vikrant’s mother; Actor Vijay’s Siddhi. We met him one morning at his residence.
“My son Vikrant and I entered the media at the same time. After that, I took a little break. After getting married to both of us and finishing all our duties, we fought to sit idle at home. Like everyone else, the main reason I came to the serial was little Padmini. She was the one who invited me into the serial world. We asked him about actor Vijay.
“When Vijay was born, I was studying in 10th standard. He was the first child in our family. We were all alone then. When we were growing up, Vijay also grew up together. When Vijay was a small child, his mother used to bathe him, she was afraid. I used to bathe the little children. It will be easy for me to take a bath.I will take a bath for him.
Vijay has been a very quiet boy since childhood. They used to complain that they were playing pranks in school.. It was very normal in that season.. Even so, no complaint came to Vijay. Vijay and my friends are very close. My sister will always be at home. That panting is still there!
It’s been a long time since I saw Personala Vijay. Can’t talk to him. He is very busy. Now he is at a great height. Very happy to see it. But, I miss Vijay a lot!” he continued.
“We were all together when Vidya died. She died when she was three years old. There was no such medical advancement then. She was beautiful… She sang a great song… The loss of her own sister, which happened in front of Kannu, must have affected him. Vijay became a bit dull after that.” We asked about the family.
“Our family is a media family. Only my husband and elder daughter-in-law are not from the media. It was Udayakumar sir who turned Santosh into Vikrant. First of all I want to thank him for bringing him to the field. I thought I could bring Vikrant to the field after completing his degree. His father really wanted Vikrant to succeed in cricket. He was playing good cricket. Cricket was different then. He chose to go into acting. He started acting at a young age and people wanted him. I thought he wanted luck. People accepted him. Even now he has a good name in the industry.
We were surprised when Vijay came to act in the beginning. None of us expected him to act. Is this our Vijay when we see him dancing? It looks like you are dancing super like this. Vijay never went to dance classes. But look how super he dances. Surely all this is a blessing! Vijay is very popular in the upcoming films. He is very smart.
Now those who do serials are also doing movies. I also want to act in a Vijay film. Because of this, if Vijay calls me and says, “You have a character in the film to buy Siddhi!”, I will go immediately. That’s what I’m waiting for!” he said.
