Chennai: Remember Christopher, the real ratsasan in Ramkumar’s Ratsasan? In one side, the movie is turning out to be the biggest hit in Vishnu Vishal’s career. While on the other side, people started asking who was the actor who played the role of Christopher, and the production house was keeping it a big secret for a long time.
Finally, putting an end to the suspense, on Tuesday, the makers of the film revealed the actor who played as the menacing psycho killer Christopher in the film. It was a special event organised to introduce the villain to the public.
A lesser known actor named Saravanan played Christopher and his mom’s role. For his aged look in the film, Saravanan only had fruit juice and water throughout the shoot. Christopher’s younger version was played by Yasar who also lost around 15 kilos for the role. Saravanan, when addressing the event said, “When I was shooting for Ratsasan, my health was not in good condition and half of the time, I did not hear what others say because of the lack of proper food. For a struggling actor like me, this is a huge opportunity and I should thank my director and producer for arranging a special function to honour my work.”
