Bharatham
Director: Sibi Malayil

Bharatham is not my favourite because I won the National Award for Best Actor. Actually, we were to shoot a different story. When we were just about to start, we learnt that someone else was making a film with a similar story. I said, let's drop the idea.

Then Lohitadas, the writer, got this spark and started writing another story. In no time, we started shooting again. It was a music-oriented film. We recorded the songs and shot the film at a brisk pace. On day 53, we released it. It was just amazing!

Sometimes, I feel that if something has to happen, it will. The film became a huge hit and I won the National Award.
