In her nearly two-decade-long career, Mamta Mohandas has acted in only five Tamil films, including her latest film Maharaja (2024), which marks her big comeback to Tamil cinema after a long gap.
Mamta Mohandas talks about her comeback to Tamil cinema with Maharaja, why she was very selective and what intrigued her about the project, apart from the lack of female characters and working with Vijay Sethupathi.
Also, Mamata Mohandas made some interesting remarks about Rajinikanth’s Kuselan while speaking at the promotion of Maharaja.
Mamata Mohandas said that she had signed a contract with Rajini for a song in Kuselan and went for the shoot for two days. But Mamata said that her role in the film has been completely deleted and she will appear in the scene for only a second. After watching the film, Mamata Mohandas commented that she does not know why she acted in the Kuselan film and this is now creating a stir. Mamata Mohandas’ comments on Rajinikanth’s film are going viral on the internet.
In a previous interview, she explained “I came for the shoot from Dubai while I was in the middle of another film’s shoot. I was specially called to do a song with Rajini sir. There is a shoot in the film and I am the director. During the shoot, I dance with Rajini sir. I came only for this song and stayed there for five days as this is a big film. Everyone else was gearing up for it”.
“When I reached the location, the shoot was delayed immensely. For four to five days we shot and my role was not in the film,” she said.
“I later came to know that the lead actress complained that she was not informed about another heroine’s role and so she refused to come for the shoot. That is what I was told, I am not sure if it is true. That is what I heard. But I know that the shoot was delayed and I was mistreated,” she added.
