March 29, 2010 (Sampurn Wire): If there could be an actor, who curiously looks out for varieties of roles to perform in every film. Having crowned with laurel wreaths for his extraordinary performances in his yesteryear films like “Ee’, “Raam’ and “Katradhu Tamizh’, the actor shifted his focus towards commercial arenas and indeed gained appreciations.

With his recent release “Kacheri Arambam’ making it big at box office, the actor is now simultaneously acting in “Singam Puli’ and “Roudram’. Sooner, he’ll start working on couple of films “Ko’ and “Vandhan Vendran’, based on serious themes. The film “Ko’ features him as a photo journalist and it’s an edge-seated thriller directed by cinematographer-turned-filmmaker K.V. Anand. The other film “Vandhan Vendran’ is a crime thriller directed by Kannan, an associate of Manirathnam.

Away from these happening projects, the latest buzz is about Gemini Film Circuit approaching Jeeva to enact the role of Sharman Joshi in the Tamil remake of “3 Idiots’. But it seems that, he first wants the producers to finalize the two other actors and later would sign the project wholeheartedly.
