R Madhavan on reuniting with Anushka Shetty after 14 years

Speaking about their reunion, Madhavan, in an interview with Pinkvilla, said that he hardly repeats heroines and Anushka Shetty is amongst the few of them. He mentioned that he always looks forward to working with Anushka. He said that there are very few actors he has repeated films with, especially heroines. Hence, Anushka happens to be in a unique category.

When he first did a movie with her named Rendu, she had just joined the entertainment industry and was a yoga expert. Madhavan added that Anushka was 'full of life -- tall, beautiful -- and graceful actor'. They both were young, and Madhavan was doing his 5th or 6th film in Tamil, while Anushka was about to make her debut Telugu.
