Kamal Haasan’s Vishwaroop impresses Ang Lee

Oscar-winning filmmaker Ang Lee, whose next filmLife of Pistarring Indian actors like Tabu and Irfan Khan is all ready to hit the theatres, seems to be highly impressed by Tollywood megastar Kamal Haasan who interviewed him recently. Before the interview with Kamal, Ang who was not familiar with the veteran actor’s work wanted to see his films and watched his upcoming releaseVishwaroop.

Kamal said, “I took him to my office where he saw my new filmVishwaroop. I think he liked what he saw. It was very kind of him to make time for something beyond his jam-packed schedule only so that he could be familiar with my work. He had worked in South India in Pudicherry forLife Of Pi. He had heard of me but not seen my work." On the reports, that Ang was apparently very impressed withVishwaroop, the South superstar said, “I don't know how impressed Ang was with my work. I've been deeply moved by his work. That's why I readily agreed to interview him for a television channel when the offer was made to me. He was surprised that I knew he was a micro-biologist before he began making movies. I've literally seen all his films, right from the first Pushing Hands. I think we covered extensive ground during the interview."
