16 Quotes by Suraj Venjaramood

I wanted to do more and not be stereotyped. The roles coming my way were getting repetitive.

It is important to understand that there is no distinction between comedians and actors. All are actors.

There are so many stars who are very good at comedy acts.

It is at programmes organised on the sidelines of temple festivals that you get to see raw audiences who will let you know immediately whether the act has clicked or not. It was those audiences who taught me how to strike a rapport with the audience.

When I used to return in the early morning after late-night programmes, the first people I see on the roads at the break of dawn are sweepers, newspaper vendors and milkmen. Since they were all from my hometown, I would stop to talk to them before going home. So I am quite used to their lifestyle and work.

I grew up not watching but hearing cinema.

What matters to me is being part of good films and doing meaty roles.

I feel that if my work excites me and makes me deliver my best, then it should, hopefully, entertain viewers as well.

I love comedy and I'll never give it up.
