‘That was the moment I realized my inner woman. Don’t you want to tear us apart, that’s really what the movie was regarding. Can’t we say that none of us, Jayasuriya, had any role, that’s what happened that day. It was a situation where your body was telling you to give up.
Parakayapravesha, I don’t know what to say to that. Anyway, I realized that I have no role there. I mightn’t do that character for three days. I mightn’t really get into that character. When none of this worked for me, one day I went to the caravan and cried.
Even my confidence that I might do it was out of place. In fact, for the first three days of the shoot, I rushed back to Pandaram. It was thought that the shoot would be over and packed up. He reached the point where he was standing with his hands folded, saying that he might not do it. God’s help came. I was able to do the role of Marykutty very well. It happened that way,’ said Jayasurya.
