Then he met Kamal sir following five years, and then he told him to fail the exam: Shine Tom Chacko
Shine Tom Chacko comes to cinema following working as an assistant director in director Kamal’s films. Today he has become a busy actor in Malayalam. Shine Tom Chacko shares the experience of asking Kamal for a film opportunity when he was in the seventh standard. In an interview given to India Glitz Malayalam as part of the promotion of his new film Vichithar, Shine shared his past experiences.
‘Kamal sir’s family and my family were in adjacent compounds. The urge to act in the movie is increasing like this. Azhakia Ravana was released at that time. I am studying in 7th standard. Kamal sir’s school will have some space for children. That day, my father got tetanus from a nail in his leg. Father told me to call Kamal sir. So I went with my mother to meet sir.
Then we want to act in movies. The director is completely close. I am telling mom to tell sir. Amma said you said you want to act. I said sir I want to act in movies. I am very serious. You know what a seventh grade boy would feel when he said that. Sir laughed and took the car and left.
I had to wait another five years to see Sir once more. At that time sir said that he should go and write the exam. So following the plus two exam I didn’t go to ask sir. I went straight to the location and said, Sir, I have arrived. Kamal sir asked if he called you and told you to come. I also said that sir Varana said no. ‘There is no fulfillment without a bang,’ Shine said.
