‘There was a distance between me and Kamal sir…’: Sivakarthikeyan reveals he is still waiting for a hug from Kamal Haasan after Amaran’s success

As a long-time fan of Tamil cinema and a follower who has witnessed the evolution of stars like Sivakarthikeyan and Kamal Haasan, I must say that the release of Amaran has been a rollercoaster ride filled with suspense, drama, and emotional highs. The film’s success is not just a testament to Sivakarthikeyan’s versatile acting skills but also to the power of a well-told story that resonates deeply with audiences.


The Tamil film “Amaran,” starring Sivakarthikeyan, has been a massive hit following its release. It’s not just the impressive box office earnings that make it stand out, but also the emotional impact it seems to have on viewers. The movie tells the inspiring story of Major Mukund Varadarajan, a hero who gave his life in service. During a recent success event for the film, Sivakarthikeyan shared some surprising insights about his professional relationship with producer Kamal Haasan.

Speaking candidly about the subject, Sivakarthikeyan disclosed that he felt quite distant from Kamal Haasan on the initial day of filming for Amaran. Although the renowned star has seen the film and genuinely enjoyed it, the Rajini Murugan actor expressed his hope that the senior actor would give him a warm embrace upon the movie’s success.

Initially, there was some space between me and Mr. Kamal during our first day of filming, but over time, we’ve grown quite close. I can hardly wait to receive a warm hug from him upon his return from overseas, as he seemed delighted with the movie after watching it.

In addition, Sivakarthikeyan shared some insights about the legendary actor Rajinikanth and revealed that Rajini was amazed by his multi-faceted portrayal in the movie “Amaran”. Impressed, Rajinikanth stated that he could not distinguish between the character and the actor on screen as Sivakarthikeyan seamlessly brought the real-life persona to life.

As a devotee to my craft, I, Sivakarthikeyan, humbly acknowledge the meticulous work of director Rajkumar Periasamy. His unwavering clarity in storytelling, particularly in the tale of Amaran, was instrumental. I am indebted to him for investing three precious years of his life into this project.

The star declared, “I had confidence that Amaran would excel when director Rajkumar shared the plot. He was incredibly precise about his vision and spent three years shaping the script and production. All the accolades should go to him since my main task was undergoing a physical metamorphosis.

Towards the finale, Sivakarthikeyan expressed heartfelt compliments for his on-screen spouse, Sai Pallavi, portraying Indhu Rebecca Varghese, who was depicted as the wife of Major Mukund Varadarajan in the film.

Sivakarthikeyan praised Sai Pallavi, stating she was an ideal fit for the movie and the character seemed tailor-made for a talent such as hers. He was pleased that she achieved a Tamil box office success with a film like ‘Amaran’. (Paraphrased)

For the unversed, Amaran was released on Diwali, October 31, 2024.
