Noted Malayalam and Tamil star Naren, whose maiden venture in Tamil Chithiram Pesuthadi became a big hit, is a busy man now.

The young hero, whose work in Chithiram Pesuthadi was acclaimed by everyone, will star in a Tamil movie to be directed by Thangar Bachchan (Pallikoodam). He has also accepted to be part of veteran director S A Chandrasekhar's next film Nenjirukum Varai.

Naren, says, 'After Chithiram Pesuthadi, I had several producers coming to me. However I was in no hurry. I listened to several scripts and finally zeroed in a couple of projects.' Stating that quality matters more than the quantity, Naren hopes that his forthcoming movies would help him consolidate his place in Tamil industry.

In Malayalam, the success of Classmates has taken his career to greater heights. Says the actor, with good offers coming in both Malayalam and Tamil, I would love to balance my career in both Tamil and Malayalam
