Heroines Have Become Alert!

        Until the recent past, Tamil film heroines didn't bother about the soundness or importance of their roles in films. They were having the following general concept about films: 'Only heroes were given importance here. Heroines usually had just 3, 4 duet songs. That's all'. Yet, they were, nevertheless, very keen only on getting their full salary. But this trend is fastly changing now. Kausalya, after the film "Sollaamalae", and Simran, after "Thullaatha Manamum Thullum", have come to have the stern belief that their roles in films hereafter should definitely be very sound and important from the story point of view so as to extract sympathy and appreciation from the audience. Nowadays, if the new roles offered to them happen to be of ordinary type they just don't hesitate to reject them outright, so say some sources close to them.

        In this regard, rather much experienced an artiste is actress Swathi. She agreed to act in "Unnai Thaedi", imagining that she could pair with her ex-lover Ajith Kumar in it! But Ajith in the film teamed with Maalavika. So, naturally, Swathi got disappointed! Not only that. Swathi had only a small part as that of a junior artiste in the film. In yet another film viz. "House Full" too, she 'suffered' the same fate! In it she is seen only in a very limited number of scenes. So nowadays Swathi is forced to become double careful. She's now begun to insist that her new roles in the would-be films should be important ones. narrated at the time of booking the heroine, should definitely remain unchanged till the end in the actual film too!
