Sitting pretty Positivity drives Tamannah
You won’t believe it – I just bought a laptop a month ago and opened a Hotmail account,” giggles Tamannah, who has been working, round-the- clock for six years and featured in 13 films.
Her last four films -- "Konchem Ishtam Konchem Kastam", "Ananda Thandavam", "Kalasaala", "Veedokkade" have released in succession and each one had something to boast about. Dressed in a pink sari, the actor with her father, sits in the last row, watching the preview of her latest film and eagerly waits for the audience’ reaction.
The film apparently did big business in Tamil Nadu, that is the reason why the film was dubbed and released as "Veedokkade".
As it was an AVM’s film which came right after "Sivaji", the actress says she was lucky to have been offered the role and grabbed it without a thought.
The actress played a complex character Madhumita in "Ananda Thandavam" which drew a mixed response.
She explains to why her role drew flak and defends her decision, “The immature and confused behaviour, is a streak that every girl goes through at different points of time in life. I’m okay with it if people are bugged with the role, but it made an impact right?”
The pretty lady lost an opportunity to work with Mahesh and Trivikram for "Varudu".
Tamannah explains in films one has no control over certain things. She was approached by the production house and found that her dates were not working out. “It’s a long life, I may get another opportunity to work with them as they are a fabulous team and their reach is far,” she says.
There were rumours about her rejecting "Pista" with Vijay, as she was keen on doing meaningful roles after the release of "Ayyan".
The actor is aghast, “I choose a film on the basis of a combination. It could be the script, the role, the banner, director etc.
No one can influence me to take up a film.” At the moment Tamannah is busy with "Kandein Kadhalai" with Bharat which is a remake of "Jab We Met" and "Paiyya" with Karti Sivakumar directed by Linguswamy.
Tamannah treats movies as a nine-to-five job and believes in maintaining an etiquette.
She adds it is important to remember that films are just a temporary aspect in life. When she is not shooting, she is found sleeping most of the time.
She says, “I do cardio and weights and have a decent appetite. No fried, junk food and a strict no to aerated drinks.”
She writes poetry and loves to be surrounded by positive people.
“Positivity drives me,” she signs off.
