What are your future plans for Envis?

I want to direct a couple of films. I want to encourage as many newcomers as I can too. I plan to tie up with corporate houses so that we can make more films.

Are you planning to make only Tamil films?

I don't plan to restrict myself. There is a market for every kind of films. We have to have an idea about the target audience.

You worked for Stephen Spielberg when you were a student. How did that happen?

When I was doing my studies in the US, there was a call from his studio asking for five students to join him. First there was an interview of 2000 students. After a series of tests and interviews, I was one among the five selected to work on a science fiction series Taken by Spielberg. I worked on it for a year and a half.

It was like working in a dream land. Everything was so professional that you learn a lot. One met a lot of people from different walks of life. It was a great experience, in a different world.
