Suriya: NGK is a turning point for me

NGK, which is a short film for Nandha Gap is one of the most anticipated Tamil films. It piqued the interest of moviegoers by bringing together two distinct talents of Tamil cinema.

In a recent interaction with fans on social networks, Suriya revealed that he had been waiting to work with Selvaraghavan since the early 2000s. It was the time when the director forced himself to make a name for himself with films like Kaadhal Kondein (2003) and Pudhupettai (2006), to name a few. "I waited nearly 19 years before I could realize a project with him," Suriya said.

The Singam star claimed to have discussed a few other Selvaraghavan scripts before finalizing NGK. "We thought the other scripts had some resemblance to the current movies. But NGK has always sounded in Selvaraghavan's mind. He was very close to the character in this film and spoke about it every time. That's why we started this project, "he added.

Suriya said that working with Selvaraghavan had been an excellent learning experience in his career. "It was a turning point in my career. I have learned and learned things.

Although he 's been in the industry for nearly 20 years, he was always surprised by what Selvaraghavan could achieve in terms of extracting performance from his actors. "Thanks to my 20 years of experience in the theater field, I know the extremes to push the emotions. But in the direction of Selvaraghavan, the scene will be seven or eight steps ahead of our imagination, "said Suriya.
