Alencier Ley Lopez is about to look within the upcoming film Narayaneente Moonnaanmakkal alongside Joju George and Suraj Venjaramoodu, portraying three brothers. At a recent press event promoting the film, Alencier, known for his candid and outspoken nature, openly shared his thoughts without hesitation. He spoke about his experience working with Rajinikanth and Amitabh Bachchan in Vettaiyan.
He revealed that he accepted the role solely to witness Rajinikanth and Amitabh Bachchan perform. Alencier stated that he didn’t receive any monetary remuneration for his appearance within the film. As a substitute, he was given a five-star hotel stay and a flight ticket to Mumbai as compensation. His role was limited to a single shot, where he portrayed a judge, and each Amitabh Bachchan and Rajinikanth were present in that one scene.
Alencier Ley Lopez also reminisced a couple of scene from a Rajinikanth movie he had watched during his pre-degree days. Within the film, Rajinikanth stopped a flying helicopter using only his teeth, which left a long-lasting impression on him. This fueled Alencier’s curiosity to know Rajinikanth’s acting process. Reflecting on his sooner or later of shooting, Alencier described Rajinikanth’s performance, saying, ‘He (Rajinikanth) does his stylized type of acting, where he performs together with his body language and walks out of the courtroom, after which Amitabh Bachchan’s character would roar like a lion. The judge sits there shocked after this.’
Alencier, poking fun on the two legendary icons of Indian cinema, remarked that he couldn’t compete with them. In his words, ‘Neither do I do know the form of stylised acting nor do I actually have a booming voice. All I can do is act in movies of Dileesh Pothan, Sharan Venugopal, and Rajeev Ravi. That’s after I got to know that these two cannot act.”
Alencier Ley Lopez also acknowledged that he’s unlikely to get one other opportunity to act in a Tamil film resulting from his comments. The actor explained that he was simply being honest, saying he took the role only to witness their performances firsthand and has no intention of becoming energetic within the Tamil film industry.
