Dhanush recalls the time 'when people used to make fun of him on sets'

Actor Dhanush has paved his way to become one of the most prominent names in film industry after a lot of struggle; the actor shared that he used to get trolled for his looks and physique in the initial days of his career.

He revealed that the trolls affected him to the point that it made him lock himself in a room and cry out loud. Even though, he kick started his career with his father’s support but yet he faced his ups and downs too despite that.

The Ranjhana actor added: “While shooting for Kaadhal Konden, I was asked who the hero was. I pointed at someone else from the cast as I was not ready to face any more insults. However, later when they came to know that I was the hero, everyone on the set laughed at me. They said, ‘hey look at the auto-driver, he is the hero’ and so on. I went to my car and cried out loud as I was a young boy and did not have composure back then. There is not even one person who had not trolled and body-shamed me”.

He said that the trolls made him think: “Why can't an auto driver be a hero?”

On the work front, Dhanush is widely-known as a Tamil actor. His last Tamil film Vaathi became a super hit. It was a film that focused on the corruption existing in the education system. The actor is all set to feature in an action film next named Captain Miller, reports Pinkvilla.
