Arvind Swami on Assault Sethu and Siddharth Abimanyu

Arvind Swami, who has delivered  a sterling performance in Thani Oruvan, says he had a lot of freedom playing the role of Siddharth Abimanyu. “I see so many films with backstories for the bad guy to show why he became evil. Thani Oruvan doesn’t do that,” says Arvind Swami.

“I didn’t think Sethu was really a villain in the film. You didn’t quite come out convinced he was evil. But in Thani Oruvan, you’ll have no such doubts about Siddharth,” adds Arvind Swami.
