Dhanush occupies an interesting space in pop culture. Somewhere between winning accolades for films like Aadukalam (2011), the internet phenomenon Why this kolaveri di, and Asuran (2019), he rose to fame. And that was only the beginning of his career spanning decades. Over the years, Dhanush has taken to directing, producing and music-making. After winning over the South and Bollywood, the superstar has now set his gaze westwards. Dhanush recently made his Hollywood debut with the Russo Brothers’ The Gray Man starring Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans, Ana de Armas and more. The big-budget action thriller sees him play Avik San, a Tamilian agent and a man of few words. A character that seems to be tailor-made for the actor. However, actions speak louder than words, and Dhanush certainly isn’t one to keep it low key. In The Gray Man, he goes up against Ryan Gosling’s Court Gentry with an unparalleled swagger. That’s just what you get when you pair one of our biggest stars with some of the most prolific action filmmakers Hollywood has to offer. In an exclusive interview with Filmfare, Dhanush opened up about his scene-stealing Hollywood debut, Indian representation in international cinema, and more.
