Santhanam's latest release 'Sakka Podu Podu Raja' produced by VTV Ganesh despite mixed reviews has taken a good opening at the box office and the hero conducted a success meet in which he fielded many interesting questions from the journos.

When quizzed about the supposed rivalry between him and Sivakarthikeyan he said no one is a competition to others and it is a mere coincidence that 'Velaikkaran' and 'SPPR' released on the same day.  He further added that Siva's film is a message oriented one and his is a comedy and both are finding their audiences.  He stated that he welcomed Rajini and Kamal in politics and whether he would support them depended on their ideology.

When quizzed about whether he will compete with Vadivelu in the comedy circuit he coolly said that he has turned hero and hence had no necessity to do so.  Asked whether Santhanam would return as a comedian he was very clear that he would continue as a hero and would work hard to justify his decision.
