I feel embarassed to watch some of my own films: Madhavan

Having garnered appreciation for his roles in films like '3 Idiots' and 'Rang De Basanti', multilingual actor R Madharavan says he can never feel embarassed to watch these films as it is a testimonial to his noteworthy performances. "I have found out that after over a year or so I feel embarassed to watch my own films but my performances in films like 'Rang De Basanti', '3 Idiots' and 'Ramji Londonwaley' are something I would love to watch again and again," Madhavan said. "These films are close to my heart as the characters that I played were appreciated by all. The roles were significant and audience could connect with it," he said. The actor, fondly known as Maddy, has acted in 11 films in Bollywood since 2001 including 'Rehna Hai Tere Dil Mein', 'Dil Vil Pyar Vyar', 'Guru', 'Ramji Londonwaley', 'Mumbai Meri Jaan' and his latest flick 'Teen Patti' alongside Amitabh Bachchan and Ben Kingsley. 'Rehna Hai...' marked Madhavan's debut in Bollywood in 2001 for which he was nominated for the 'Best Male Debut' and 'Most Promising Male Newcomer' awards catagory. But the 29-year-old actor's recognition came with 'Rang De Basanti' in 2005. In the film, Madhavan essayed the role of Ajay Rathod, Flight Lieutenant in the Indian Air Force who was killed in a fighter aircraft crash. "My role was appreciated by film critics and it was my first major hit in Bollywood," he said. On his role in '3 Idiots' and 'Ramji Londonwaley', Madhavan said, "Role of Farhan Qureshi was appreciated by all and was nominated for awards. Every young guy could associate with the character." However, 'Ramji...' did not do well at box office but it was simple, sweet and lovable character, he said. Maddy has also acted in number of Tamil films of which his 2006-release 'Thambi' proved to be a big hit down south. Besides, the actor also made his entry in tele soaps in late 1990s. "I have done about 1,600 episodes on TV before films," he ssaid. Maddy was part of television serials like 'Banegi Apni Baat', 'Saaya', 'Sea Hawks', 'Tol Mol Ke Bol' and 'Ghar Jamai'. Madhavan's upcoming projects in Bollywood include the much delayed Hindi-Bengali bilingual 'Sunglass', directed by Rituparno Ghosh, 'Tanu Weds Manu' with Kangana Ranaut and 'Freedom'.
