"I go by where I am emotionally. If it appeals to me, I do it. It is always instinctive," said Madhavan
Actor R Madhavan says he is open to featuring in romance dramas provided it doesn't require him to star opposite a younger female lead. Madhavan, best known for love stories such as Alaipayuthey, Kannathil Muthamittal, Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein and Tanu Weds Manu, said he now wants to play age appropriate roles. "I have to be age appropriate in my roles. It is not that I am romancing a young girl now. It is not something that I want to do. If I am offered a romantic film, it has to be age appropriate or have content that makes me viable for me to be part of it," the 52-year-old actor told PTI.
As a performer, Madhavan said he has always followed his instincts.
"I go by where I am emotionally. If it appeals to me, I do it. It is always instinctive," he added.
