Madhavan, who ended 2025 with a bang in Dhurandhar, has begun the brand new 12 months on a deeply heartening note. The Government of India has conferred upon him the distinguished Padma Shri.
Madhavan reacts to Padma Shri honour; says, “With the Padma Shri, I feel my journey has just begun”
I touched base with Madhavan soon after the announcement. The actor couldn’t be happier. “It’s like being told I’ve been doing something right. My life as an actor has all the time been unpredictable and what? I prefer it that way. Stability is for real life. By God’s grace, I actually have a superb wife and a son who makes me proud each day. Movies are where I seek adventure and excitement.
“My profession has been like a rollercoaster. I began on television, then satellite, then Tamil cinema, and Hindi cinema. God has been kind. I never really had to come across failure.”
And now, the Padma Shri. “It is actually the icing on the cake. I couldn’t be happier. My family and I are celebrating. We’ve never been happier.” Madhavan believes his journey is way from over. “The Padma Shri gives me a born-again feeling. I feel like my journey has just begun.”
