Shivarajkumar calls Ravi Mohan “Sakalakala Vallavan”, says he wants to play his brother in a film
At the Ravi Mohan Studios launch event, Kannada star Shivarajkumar spoke about his wish to work with Ravi Mohan while also praising him for being an all-rounder. The actor was invited onto the stage to unveil the promo for Ravi’s directorial debut, An Ordinary Man, which will mark the production banner’s second venture.
After launching the promo, Shivarajkumar said that he came to the event despite not being close to Ravi. “I’m not very close with Ravi, actually. The Tamil film industry is my home. I have just come back home. I will do anything for Ravi Mohan. I’ve seen his films, and I know him as an actor. He has witnessed phenomenal growth from Jayam to now. He’s a very good dancer.” Further, he summarised his views to describe him with a tag. “I think I can say he’s a ‘Sakalakala Vallavan’.” He suits all kinds of roles.”
Speaking about his upcoming production and directorial venture, Shivarajkumar said, “Now, he has ventured into direction, that too with one of my favourite actors, Yogi Babu. The title An Ordinary Man is extraordinary. It is going to be a big hit, just like his first production, Bro Code. Suryah sir’s and Ravi sir’s subtle expressions in the promo itself are wonderful. I have no doubt this film will be a success.”
Further, Ravi Mohan expressed his gratitude for Shivarajkumar’s presence at the event. “Shiva anna, I grew up watching your films. It is my absolute honour for you to say such amazing words. I am still not sure if I deserve these words. You’ve fed me in your house, and I will always have that gratitude towards you,” he said.
Ravi Mohan and Shivarajkumar were then asked about possible collaborations. Ravi Mohan first said, “If I even get the opportunity to star in one scene of Shiva Anna’s films, I will do it. I have literally watched his films all my life, so I know how blessed I would be to star in his film.” Following this, Shivarajkumar said, “If I get the chance, I want to play a positive role alongside Ravi Mohan. Brother, or friend, but I want to play a positive character.”
Ravi Mohan's debut production is Bro Code, helmed by Karthik Yogi. While it was previously announced that SJ Suryah will play a pivotal role in the film, the extended cast was announced at the launch event. Sri Gouri Priya, Shraddha Srinath, Arjun Ashokan and Malavika Manoj have also been added to the film. Meanwhile, Ravi Mohan is all set to helm his first film, which will mark his second production venture. The film, titled An Ordinary Man, will feature Yogi Babu in the lead role.
