The language and cultural barriers are slowly melting away thanks to OTT. This is a great time for actors like me who want to experiment with different roles and work in different language industries. Our History &amp; Culture have so many untold stories of valor that the young generation must know about. For example, I am super eager to see &#8216;Ponnyin selvan&#8217; as it is an important work depicting our culture and history. Similarly, Velu Thambi is a character I have only read about &amp; Watching these stories unfold on the screen will be an interesting experience for the audience as well&#8221; he sings off.<\/p>\n<p
