Chennai: Lakshmi Menon who played a role of Ajith’s sister in Vedalam said that many threatened her not to do this role as she loses her market, but she thought about Ajith and signed.
Lakshmi Menon was riding sky high as her last release Komban was a super duper hit material. The actress later refrained from signing movies as she was busy with her school board exams.
She made a comeback by signing Ajith’s ‘Vedalam’. In the movie, she is doing role of Ajith’s baby sister. The recently released stills proved how much brother – sister bonding both Ajith and Lakshmi Menon has in real. In her recent interview she confessed that, lots of people degraded her for signing the movie.
She says, “I never signed any movie for a while and when I was about to sign ‘Vedalam’, Lots of people around me said not to sign this project. They threatened me by saying that I will even lose my market by doing sister role. The warned me that it is a risk factor.
But I just made it clear that sharing screen space with Ajith was my dream and without second thoughts I signed it and right now I am so happy. I don’t even care if I lose my market. Just after I signed Vedalam, I have signed Jayam Ravi’s ‘Miruthan’. It was actually a blessing in disguise for me.”
