<p>Actor Sanchari Vijay’s role in the recently released project ‘Maarikondavaru’ might be small, but he is happy that he is part of the film. <br /><br />In a candid chat with Tini Sara Anien, the humble National Film award winner talks about his role and more.<br /><br /> What made you opt for this project?<br /><br />This was before the National Award for ‘Naanu Avanalla...Avalu’ came. I approached the director, Shivarudraiah K for the role and he told me that it was an important one, yet with minimal screenspace. I was looking to be part of good movies. To me, every role is an important one. So, I accepted it.<br /><br />Can you tell me about your role?<br /><br />I am one of the four protagonists who battles corruption. More than just my role, I wanted to be a part of this film because it had actors like Samyukta Hornad and Sonu <br />Gowda. They were already noted actors then and it turned out to be a great learning experience. I was a beginner then and it was a great platform.<br /><br />Which do you prefer — parallel or commercial cinema?<br /><br />Different traits are required to be a part of non-commercial films. These movies are very realistic and I feel lucky that I was part of movies like ‘Naanu Avanalla...Avalu’ where I played a transgender woman.</p>.<p>There is a lot of work involved like observing the character’s mannerism and lifestyle before playing such roles. Parallel cinema is entirely performance-based. Movies are movies though and I would like to work in all of them.<br /><br />Where will we see you next?<br /><br />I have 11 Kannada movies coming up, of which six are done. The ones that have been completed included ‘Varthamana’, a thriller project with a difference; ‘Krishna Thulasi’ where I will playing a visually-handicapped tourist guide and ‘Nanmagale Heroine’, which is a commercial movie. I am also very excited about ‘Phirangipura’, where I will play <br />an 80-year-old. There is also be a project with veteran director S K Bhagavan.<br /><br /> How have you been balancing it out?<br /><br />If I have to do a complete makeover for a film, I take time to finish it before jumping into another. I don’t do multiple films at once. It has been hectic but I like to give time <br />for every film. Many senior actors multitask but it is not something I can do.</p>
