The actor admits that he was uncomfortable shooting his first on screen kiss, “I am doing a lip-lock on screen for the first time. And I was definitely not ready.

Arun will be playing dual roles in Thadam, and he assures us that it is not that of a police officer. “When Magizh narrated the script to me, he said that this will be a milestone film in my career. I play a dual role, but both characters look similar. The script has so much detail, though!”
