Soundarya may have played it safe with her directorial debut ‘Kochadaiiyaan‘ by teaming up with her superstar father Rajnikanth, but she is feeling the pressure of high expectations. She said if her dad took over three decades to attain stardom, she should be given at least half the time to prove herself.
She said: “It’s a tough life for star kids…for people they are stars; for us, they are the people that we know.”
“As star children, we face the expectations, which is as much as that of the achievers who are the fathers or mothers who took so much time to achieve it. My father is a superstar now, but he took 31 years to reach here, at least give me 15 years,” the 30-year-old, who is married to Chennai-based businessman Ashwin, told us.
Rajnikanth, who rose to meteoric heights from a bus conductor to Tamil cinema’s superstar, enjoys a huge fan following.
Achievers’ children can’t afford to take their lineage for granted, Soundarya said.
“Be it in any business, when the achievers’ children enter, the expectation and pressure on them are much more. Yes, we do have an access no doubt, but there is too much of pressure,” she said.
‘Kochadaiiyaan’, a Rs.125-crore film, said to be India’s first motion capture photo-realistic 3D animated movie, is expected to release worldwide May 1 on about 6,000 screens in six languages.
Bollywood diva Deepika Padukone plays the female lead opposite Rajnikanth in the film, which also features Jackie Shroff, R. Sarath Kumar, Shobana, Nasser, Aadi Pinisetty and Rukmini. Read More On MSN
