“I don’t compete with anyone in the industry,” says Sivakarthikeyan at Seema Raja trailer launch

Speaking at the trailer launch of Seema Raja, which is gearing up to hit screens on September 13th for the Ganesh Chaturthi weekend, Sivakarthikeyan said, “We could have done something like our previous ventures. But the success that people gave us pushed us to go for an exceptional thing. Now people have been taking the screenshot of me appearing in the look of an emperor and comparing it to the internationally acclaimed Baahubali. I am so happy that Ponram sir has made me a King in this film. To journey centuries back in time and be portrayed as a King uttering some of the extraordinary dialogues has left me elated. While preparing for this role, I had to roam around with thickly bearded looks, where many would ask me if I am having some sickness. But I had to refrain from explanations and now I’m happy to see the reception.”

Sivakarthikeyan continued to add, “Just as Anjana said I don’t have any competitors here in the industry and I perceive myself as my own competitor. I have no reasons to feel envy about others and I’m happy to be a part of the same industry as everyone.”
