"I wanted to leave the film industry before Aadai," says Amala Paul

Without Aadai, the career of actor Amala Paul in Tamil films would have already been clbadified in history books.

The actress, 27, revealed at the audio launch of her upcoming film, Aadai whose teaser, released last month, sparked an overwhelming reaction, particular because of a controversial scene without flags featuring the star Deiva Thirumagal .

I wanted to leave the industry because the resume I received from the filmmakers felt like a lie. Yes, they were centered on heroin … but the concepts were simple. As a rape victim, she fights against all expectation and revenge, or a woman who supports her endless husband, or a sacrificial mother. I had no interest in being part of those lies, "she said.

It was at this point that she received the synopsis of a page from Aadai. "I was shocked when I read it. I was wondering if it was in Tamil or Hindi or English. I was even more shocked that a producer made a commitment to invest in this film, "said Amala. But when director Rathna Kumar approached her to tell him the whole movie, she did not think it was an original screenplay. "I asked him if it was a remake of an English film," said the actor laughing.

On the stage where she is completely naked, she stated that the producer had told her about a special costume to wear during filming. . "I asked him not to worry about that." Yet when the day came, she was nervous. "Only when I reached this point did I feel stressed. I was anxious to know what was happening on the plateaux, who would be present and if there was security, "she said.

" There was only 15 people on the sets. I would not have done the scene if I did not trust the crew, "she added. The actor also responded to the reviews of the trailer stating, "There will always be people who will judge the film before watching it. We can not do anything about it. It was an honest attempt. It's a real movie and every movie has its own destiny. So, who cares [about the comments]? "Concludes Amala.
