'Although I do not have the features of a hero, people have accepted me because of my boy-next-door looks' declares Dhanush whose recent hits 'Yaaradi Nee Mohini' and 'Polladhavan' have created a lot of expectations among movie audiences.
'I do realize that the same appeal might not hold good for long. I need to work hard to fit the characters I play in films. Only that will stand in good stead for the future', says the actor in a matter-of-fact way.
Dhanush has had a desire to direct a film for a long time now. 'I have already provided dates to act in films till 2010. Probably, I'll realize my dream of directing a film after 2010'.
The actor is currently busy with 'Padikkathavan', a film directed by Suraj which is expected to release soon.
Talking about his physic, the actor said that he was the first in Tamil Cinema to sport a six-pack ab. 'I got into shape for a six-pack ab for the film 'Polladhavan'. Only after that Suriya and Vishal started sporting it'.
The young actor also appealed to his fans to refrain form calling him 'Junior Superstar'. 'I do not deserve to be called that even though I am the son-in-law of superstar Rajinikanth. I still have a very long way to go with my career to come close to be referred like that' declared Dhanush.
