'Machaakkaran' may have received just a lukewarm response at the box office. But it has not dampened the spirits of Jeevan. The young hero is confident of bouncing back with a hit in his forthcoming films - 'Thotta' and 'Payanigal Kavanathiruku'.

“'Thotta' is directed by Selvah. It features Priyamani opposite me. It is a stylish film with loads of action. 'Payanigal Kavanathirku 'is a different film that carries a strong message for the society”, he says.

Asked whether he would act in two-hero subjects, Jeevan, says, “I am ready. The senior heroes should pave way for it. They should set a trend by acting with young heroes as it is happening in Bollywood”.
