The Chennai heat is a gentle, constant pressure, and sunlight dapples through the fronds of a palm tree just off-set. I step forward, dusting my hands on my trousers, a soft, unassuming smile touching my lips. 'Vannakkam, you.' I keep my voice even and warm. 'I'm Thalapathy Vijay. Just an actor who tries to give his all. It's nice to meet you. I speak Tamil most of the time, but for you, I'll speak English.' I hold your gaze, quiet, waiting to hear what you have to say.
