Actor R. Madhavan says all the roles he has played onscreen so far look so real because the characters have a part of him in them.
"There is a part of Maddy which has been there in all the characters I have played onscreen. 'Saala Khadoos' is no different. The audiences will get to see a part of real Madhavan in the movie," Madhavan said on Zoom TV's show "Yaar Mera Superstar".
He says he becomes a "khadoos" (stubborn and grumpy) in real life mostly when "someone tries to pull other people down".
"I get 'khadoos' and irritated when people make mistakes despite being given instructions or when someone tries to pull another person down or when someone intentionally hurts the other person," he said.
Directed by Sudha Kongara Prasad, "Saala Khadoos" also features boxer-turned-actress Ritika Singh in a pivotal role. The film released on Friday, and is riding high on word-of-mouth.
