I never thought my navel would create so much buzz around the film

Though Amala Paul was chilling in Ladakh, away from hectic shooting schedules, her enthusiasm is palpable the minute she starts talking about her upcoming release, Thiruttu Payale 2. Touted to be a thriller, the movie is directed by Susi Ganesan and has Prasanna and Bobby Simha playing the lead.
Ask Amala if she had any apprehensions while signing the movie, and she says, “I believe that when a movie comes to you, it is destiny.I realised that I couldn’t have said no to this movie because as an actor, this film gave me complete satisfaction in terms of story, character, and the experience working with a great director. The audience will get to see a different facet of all of us. When you do a movie that pushes you out of your comfort zone, you discover a new dimension about yourself and that’s exactly what I did.”
So, how did she felt when Thiruttu Payale 2 posters were judged, and she laughs, “I never thought my navel would create so much buzz around the film. There is so much exposure to everything and we are living in 2017; despite that, my navel has become a sensation.”
Quiz the actress how she prepares for the intense romantic scenes, and she answers, “I have grown a lot as an actor and as a person. My perception of love was different last year compared to what it is this year. In this movie, I play a bold and confident woman and I also got a lot of liberty to express myself. My co-stars, Bobby and Prasanna, were very supportive. We had great understanding and wavelength, so it was easy to do the scenes. In fact, Bobby used to get the jitters before doing the romantic scenes, but I always have had the upper hand in romance, even in real life, so it was easy.”
