''Ajith doesn't believe in the numbers game anymore''

Nov 25, 2013

Director Siva recently spoke at length about the upcoming Ajith starrer Veeram. He doesn't seem to be bothered about any impending pressure to succeed, following Arrambam's victory run at the box-office.

"I don't feel any insecurity or pressure. Ajith has remained the same since his early days till Arrambam. He doesn't believe in the numbers game any more and just wants to deliver something unique to each project he does. Heroism isn't on his mind too and you can feel such a surge of positive energy whenever he is around.

We have shot for more than 102 days and Ajith didn't back away until he saw complete satisfaction in my visage, irrespective of the time of the day we were shooting. I have a lot to learn from Ajith.

I assure that Veeram would be an ideal movie for Pongal with proper family sentiments, action and a never-seen-before Ajith. In addition to Ajith, all the other actors have good space as well and Ajith treated all his co-actors like his own family."
