Vijay was more like a brother to me on the sets. Many times, when I had to do aggressive scenes in which I had to look at his eyes and scream, he used to say `you are so powerful. You don't have to shout."
Nice to hear.. So sweet of our Thalaivar!
Dev did a good job in Sura, hope he get more offers in Tamil !

> The way I landed the role is interesting. Director S S Rajamouli, who was looking for a villain for the film, was conducting auditions. When I went to visit him, I realised that over 600 people had turned up. He told me that I had been selected and then, all that Rajamouli said was this, "I want a guy who has two sides — a good side and a ruthless side." Believe me, I never knew that I had this other side in me. I was always considered to be a good-looking, clean-shaven boy. But because of Rajamouli, who is like an institution, I could get into the skin of the character.

> From Tollywood to Kollywood ...
> After Maghadheera, which was one of the biggest movies in AP, I wanted to take things a little easy. I didn't want to select the wrong films. I'm not a star son and I want to learn from all the big stars in the industry. All I wanted was some time and it was during this period that Vijay had asked S P Rajkumar to speak to me about being a part of Sura. I said `yes' to it because I wanted to make the same kind of mark as I had made in Tollywood. I knew that after a big film like Maghadheera, a second big film like that of Vijay's 50th would help me make my mark here as well.

> On Sura ...
> I've played the role of a 45-year-old politician in the movie. It's a powerful role where I'm pitted against a big star. So, that was a big challenge. I had never seen Vijay's films before. But after I got a call from him, I must have watched around 20 films of his in six days. The reason I did that was because as an actor, I wanted to understand what my hero was, so that I could give an appropriate performance. Vijay was more like a brother to me on the sets. Many times, when I had to do aggressive scenes in which I had to look at his eyes and scream, he used to say `you are so powerful. You don't have to shout."

> Future Tamil projects ...
> At the moment, I'm waiting to see if the common man gets scared of my role in Sura. I was watching the film recently with a close Tamil friend. While watching it, my friend clutched my hand and shook it. I realised that I had won the race. I think the journey has just started ...
