00:00Welcome Ravimohan Sir, RMS studio for me.
00:18How do you feel? It's exhausting.
00:22It's ecstatic actually.
00:27Because I never thought
00:30so many people will come and bless me.
00:33And I've never done this before.
00:35I want to thank Keneesha for putting up a show like this.
00:39Nobody has ever done a show for me.
00:41It's either an audio launch, it's for the movie
00:44or it's a pooja for the movie.
00:46But for an individual, I don't think anybody has put up a show like this.
00:50I'm very very grateful
00:53that everyone is here, that everyone is talking about.
00:57I'm not a mother, I'm not a mother, I'm not a mother.
01:01That's why I will never forget in my life.
01:04Thank you for making this show and RMS Ravimohan Studio.
01:09A grand success. Thank you so much.
01:11Thank you so much.
01:12Hi Keneesha.
01:13Thank you so much.
01:19It's been a long time since someone asked me this.
01:23I think for me it was always my Amma.
01:26Amma was a singer in church.
01:28Appa was a singer in church.
01:30They made me a singer in church too.
01:32So, I started singing since I was like five or six in church.
01:37And it was always very different because Amma's voice in church always stood out.
01:41And it made a lot of sense to me.
01:44I learned how to pray better because of that.
01:47And so, I really wanted to feel like I could pray with my singing and that's that.
01:54In sumara, you know J.M. Ravi and J.M. Ravi.
01:57How did you introduce Ravi Mohan when you were introduced to Ravi Mohan?
02:02With Ravi Mohan, yes.
02:04I've been Ravi Mohan since the time I came into this world.
02:11So, only J.M. Ravi is different for me.
02:14Ravi Mohan has always been my name.
02:16From school, everybody calls me Ravi.
02:19J.M. gave me an identity.
02:21And you know, I took that identity.
02:24Instead of the name, I thought, let me have my own name.
02:28But let me carry the identity J.M. gave me.
02:32That's a gratitude.
02:34I can't say that.
02:36I can't say that.
02:37I can't say that.
02:38I can say that.
02:39I can say that.
02:40I can say that.
02:41I can say that.
02:42I can say that.
02:44I can say that.
02:45I can say that.
02:47So, J.M.
02:49J.M. is one of my own visiting card.
02:52But Ravi Mohan is who I am.
02:54Personal and professional.
02:56What are you talking about?
02:58Oh, it's been very positive.
03:01I think people also understood why I did that.
03:05But, he, people thought that he is going to travel in a new path.
03:11So, he is getting that identity for the path.
03:14I thought that was a good idea.
03:16I thought that was a good idea.
03:17Everyone was a good idea.
03:18Even when you were in the press,
03:20I would say,
03:21I would say,
03:22I would say,
03:23I would say,
03:24I would say,
03:25I would say,
03:26I've had a great idea for my friends.
03:27I'm so happy.
03:28I've had a positive vibration for my name.
03:30And,
03:31I think I've had a positive vibration.
03:35It's an incredible feeling.
03:36I can say that.
03:37I feel like that,
03:38it's a good feeling.
03:39Do you know about your goals of your mother's family,
03:40and a very supportive family.
03:42Do you know about your issues in that family?
03:44You know, I lost my mum in 2013 and I lost my dad in 2017 and over 15 years, I think I've lived alone and I've done things by myself.
03:56And on the music journey, you know, I wanted to kickstart with Tamil music because I love Tamil.
04:05I love the language, I love the emotion that it carries, whether it's a kutta song or it's a ballad or it's a love song.
04:14And there's something about those, you know, it does something to me.
04:21And so I released like two dance songs before this and then I kept thinking, oh my God, what next, what next?
04:26And my mum's like 15th death anniversary is coming up.
04:30And so I was like, oh, it's a good time for me to write something for my mother.
04:34But then ended up with Mr. Ravi who wanted to write it for his mother.
04:38So I did the music and the composition and he did the lyrics.
04:41And now it sounds like a song for every mother out there.
04:44A flashback, sir.
04:46Would you say something about an actor in your personal life in your personal life?
04:54I think towards 2008, end of 2008, I did a movie called Peranmay.
05:01That was a turning point for me. Turning points can be 2, 3, 4, 5, 20, 25 in anybody's life.
05:07For me, that was the first turning point because until then I was called the chocolate boy, next door boy,
05:13and all that, which I take it to my heart till my grave.
05:18But I said to myself, what is my name?
05:22Because I had a complete look like this.
05:25I was like, oh, I have a dream.
05:26I just did that.
05:27I did my dream.
05:28I was like, I am a tribe.
05:30I have a dream.
05:31Who's a dream?
05:32I have a dream.
05:33I have been told to myself.
05:34Where's my dream?
05:35I have a dream.
05:36Where's my dream?
05:37Where's my dream?
05:38I have my dream?
05:39It was a turning point in a cinema, and it was a turning point in a cinema.
05:47It was a turning point in that film.
05:49I was very happy and I was very happy.
05:52It was a turning point for me to be a turning point in a very good way.
05:56I was able to play a comedy, entertainment, and emotion in my experience.
06:03One of the things that I told you about, is that there is no entertainment song, club song, etc.
06:17Pure content, pure engagement.
06:21I am very happy to be able to get that.
06:29That's my second turning point.
06:30My third turning point is Komali.
06:33My third turning point is that it is a one line.
06:37My third turning point is that it is a turning point in my 17 years.
06:39What can I do with this?
06:41I can't do anything.
06:42But I have always found a turning point in my first turn.
06:47I have a lot of fun.
06:50So I think these three films have been turning point.
06:54You know, it's not a film career.
06:57Film career is not a film career, but life is not a real experience.
07:01Life is full of twists and turns.
07:04But if you are happy and you are happy,
07:09every hairpin bend is a happy bend.
07:12Can you consider the stage name of Kenesha?
07:17Every single time, it's the hardest for people to get my name on stage.
07:22You know, some people go like, welcome on stage, Keshia!
07:26Or it's Khanesha!
07:28Or it's Ganesha!
07:30I was called Ganesha once.
07:32And I was like, oh my god, what?
07:34But I wouldn't change my name for anything else.
07:37I was named after the princesses, one of the princesses of Kenya.
07:40And my name means clear water and God's bride.
07:43I really want to be worthy of the meaning of my name at some point in time.
07:48So no, no, I'm going to call myself that.
07:50If you have an announcement for the upcoming movies,
07:53that you have seen Karathe Babu,
07:56you can share some of the new attractions.
07:59Karathe Babu was the first director of Kandipa.
08:04He was a big fan of me.
08:06He was a neat success, with a neat emotion.
08:11And you can touch on a human core.
08:15You can have entertainment or a human reality.
08:22You can have an extraordinary characterisation.
08:26So that's a great deal.
08:27If you're interested in me,
08:29I'm going to talk to anyone who wants to talk about it.
08:35But I'm going to talk to him.
08:38I'm not a great deal.
08:40I'm not a director or actor in the industry.
08:44I'm going to talk to him.
08:46I'm very healthy.
08:48I realized that I'm going to talk to him.
08:52He was also very happy.
08:54He said two lines.
08:56One is a romantic line.
08:59One is a action line.
09:01I'm going to talk to him in my career.
09:05I'm going to talk to him about Karathe Babu.
09:09I feel like doing mass movies.
09:12I'm not going to talk to him in 22 years.
09:15I'm going to talk to him about a mass film.
09:19I'm going to talk to him about it.
09:22So I'm going to talk to him about the action and mass film.
09:29So I called him.
09:30We spoke.
09:30He narrated the whole script.
09:33Little minor changes only we read after that.
09:36But it was a great script.
09:38So I think it will be a very good film for me and for the audience.
09:42There are many different visions of the Tamil people who are in the world.
09:47Why are you seeing this?
09:49What are the changes?
09:49Growth is inevitable.
09:51Change and growth are inevitable.
09:55So we adapt to our changes.
09:58We channelize to our growth.
10:01We are stagnant.
10:05Creativity is stagnant.
10:06So wherever it is.
10:08Now I'm working on my directorial venture.
10:11I'm working all the time.
10:14Now I have experienced cinematographers.
10:18I'm interested in working on my work.
10:21But in other words, I'm working on a budget for them.
10:28So I'm working on a talent.
10:31I'm working on Jay.
10:33Jay is a cinematographer.
10:35He's shooting a video.
10:37He's talking about a lot.
10:41So I'm going to adapt to him.
10:43I'm going to talk about a little bit.
10:47I'm going to use the filter.
10:48I'm going to use the camera proportion.
10:51I'm going to use the lensing.
10:54I'm going to create an interest in the cinema.
11:00If we're going to take a hit,
11:03it's not going to be a copy.
11:06It's not going to be soulful.
11:08So we have to keep adapting.
11:10And we have to keep in check
11:13that we are growing in cinema every day.
11:15Do you want to share the story of the song?
11:21Like I've said in a couple of interviews before,
11:25Andrum Indrum is a song that is,
11:28it's a manifestation song for me.
11:30And as a spiritual therapist,
11:33I'm a walking, talking manifestation machine.
11:37That's why I'm here.
11:38That's why we've had such a beautiful event.
11:40That's why I'm working with you guys.
11:42That's why I'm talking to you Astro.
11:44I'm talking to you guys across the globe.
11:47Andrum Indrum is a song that you can manifest a soulmate with.
11:53So in a lot of my interviews,
11:54I've said, try and listen to my song Andrum Indrum for 21 days,
11:58first thing in the morning,
11:59thinking about this manifestation that you want to really be with your soulmate.
12:03And if it doesn't happen, then you call me.
12:06It's really based on finding that true soulmate,
12:08finding something that, you know, that deep-rooted companionship.
12:14That's what the song celebrates in itself.
12:15How do you see the movies in your production banners?
12:20Ravi Mohan Studios' first vision is what my father gave me.
12:25That's why I'm here.
12:28I'm here to tell you what Mr. Editor Mohan.
12:31I'm here to tell you,
12:33I'm here to tell you something that you want to tell us.
12:37I'm here to tell you.
12:38I'm here to tell you.
12:39But I'm here to tell you the audience.
12:42You have to tell you the advantage.
12:45So what he taught me was,
12:47what he taught me was, he taught me what he taught me.
12:49He taught me what he taught me.
12:50He taught me what he taught me.
12:52So when you told me,
12:55I'm here to tell you a sugar-coated pill.
12:57The pill will make your, you know,
13:02like a vitamin tablet.
13:04If you eat it,
13:06but you don't have to do it.
13:08I'm here to tell you what I'm saying.
13:11So that's a little bit of sugar-coated.
13:14So Ravimohan Studios,
13:16all of the people in the entertainment industry
13:18can be found in the entertainment industry.
13:19That's why I'm here to tell you
13:20that there is a huge issue.
13:22You can find a unique issue.
13:24So Ravimohan Studios,
13:25what's the problem?
13:26What's the problem?
13:28What's the problem?
13:29What's the problem?
13:30What's the problem?
13:32I'm here to tell you,
13:33Ramayana Mahabharata.
13:35I'm here to tell you,
13:35what's the problem?
13:37I'm here to tell you.
13:39What's the problem with me?
13:41I'm here to tell you.
13:42You can tell me,
13:43how was the problem?
13:44I don't have to tell you.
13:47I'm here to tell you,
13:49screenplay is the problem.
13:51Screenplay is everything.
13:53So whoever's doing that screenplay,
13:54who's doing better?
13:56We are working on these things.
13:59All of this is what we have to discuss internally and discuss the issues of our team.
14:06And I also know that the screenplay only wins.
14:11There can be a good script, there can be good actors, there can be good directors.
14:16But the heart of cinema is in the screenplay.
14:20That's why I always tell the content.
14:24There is no dialogue. Content is screenplay.
14:28Content is, from start to end, how the movie travels.
14:32That's the screenplay.
14:33For example, what I'm telling you about.
14:37The symphony is called,
14:41where is the crescendo, where is the crescendo?
14:44This is a reference to the movie.
14:47That's why it's gripping.
14:49There are 32 layers in a scene.
14:51When you come to the scene, you can shoot,
14:55you can detect it,
14:57you can see the cake, you can see the cake,
14:59you can see the arrangement,
15:01you can see the arrangement.
15:02So, there are 32 layers in this.
15:04That is called screenplay.
15:06So, that's what I'm doing now.
15:08And I think,
15:10that's why I can enjoy it.
15:14What do you know about your fans?
15:18That I love them so much, which they know.
15:22What they don't know is,
15:24I would love to meet them every day.
15:26I would love to meet them every month if possible.
15:29But I am not able to meet them.
15:31And I love to meet them.
15:33So, you should have to meet them.
15:35To come to the deft of the sea.
15:36You might be able to meet them in the sphere.
15:37You are the one who needs to come to the expreside place.
15:39You should find them in the sphere.
15:40You should be able to meet them.
15:41You should have to meet them.
15:42I can still work them in the sphere.
15:44Since they have to meet them.
15:45Maybe one of my íƒ€Ă¯s,
15:46an energy boost I could see.
15:48It's been a lot of energy boosts me.
15:50My fans are so happy that I see them.
15:54They are so happy that I encourage them.
16:01I always love you.
16:03Your fashion sense is very inspiring and unique.
16:06How do you describe it?
16:08Have you influenced your music in any way?
16:12Oh wow, what a question. I love that question.
16:15Of course, I mean, what you truly wear, eat, think, sleep, do is what your art will carry.
16:24I think I truly believe that.
16:26And there's this spiritual saying that anything that is tight fitted to your body,
16:32for example, shoes, you know, they say if your shoes is always giving you like shoe bites
16:38and it's difficult for you to keep walking with it,
16:40that means you're not having the bestest relationships in your life.
16:43The same way with your body, the same way with your mind.
16:46You know, the more you kind of, you kind of just like fit your body into something
16:50and you're squeezing into it, you know, all these spanks and this and that.
16:54You're not letting your aura breathe, right?
16:58This is what Kabbalah says that you got to dress in a way that you feel light.
17:03You got to eat in a way where you feel light.
17:06You got to sleep in a way where you feel light.
17:08And so my personal style is I'm always in a onesie wherever I go, except for events like this.
17:14And I'm managed by DNA Entertainment, you see.
17:19And these guys really, really forced me to be in a sari today.
17:22And I did this for them because I can't, you know, I can't, I can't not do what my team says.
17:28But I really like it because it's got a lot of these Tamil letters on it.
17:34And it's an event in Tamil Nadu.
17:36It's for the Tamil Makkal across the globe.
17:39Please let me know if you like what I'm wearing.
17:41Do you have any questions about mental health, depression, bullying.
17:47How do you see this, sir?
17:49Yeah, I mean, the point that you left out also, I will say rape.
17:53This is the worst word in a man's autobiography, I would say, if it happens.
17:59Because, I want to tell you, if I want to tell you, if I want to tell you, if I want to tell you, cinema is a medium where you have the tool to address to the audience.
18:11It's a great mass communication that we already have in hand.
18:15That's why I have to tell you, if I want to tell you something about the script, I want to tell you something about it.
18:33So, so many people, you know, they are not coming forward with this.
18:37I've told you, if you're a hero or a vigilante, you don't have to tell you something about it.
18:47You don't have to tell me about it.
18:49You don't have to tell me about it.
18:50There are a lot of issues.
18:51I don't know if bullying is the worst thing that can happen to a human being.
18:56It's bullying.
18:57That's why I'm going to definitely make a movie about it.
19:04Not for money, not for anything.
19:06But just plainly an aspect to show the next generation that this is the worst thing you can develop with as an adult.
19:15So, anybody who is undergoing bullying, come out, be bold, tell it to the world.
19:22It is not your fault.
19:23It is the other person who is doing it.
19:26So, if you come out, there is justice.
19:30There is justice.
19:31It can be delayed, but justice prevails.
19:34As a psychologist and a spiritual healer, do you think that mental health is important?
19:39How do you see your mental health?
19:43Mental health of course is everything.
19:45Unfortunately, it's still taboo in so many pockets of this world, which is so unbearably painful for me.
19:54Everywhere I travel, I do a lot of these community gatherings where I go and talk about spiritual therapy and what it can do for you.
20:04And most of the people in the crowd mainly reach out to me, not during the event, they reach out to me after the event.
20:11Because they are not even willing to come out of their eggshells and say, you know what, I'm going to acknowledge something that's not going well in my life.
20:17And I'm literally looking to work with more people like that because the first step to healing is acknowledgement.
20:25And the second step to healing is to just understand if your body is going to reject the healing or not.
20:30And then everything is a process from there.
20:33So I'm in a place where what I preach, I would like to practice first.
20:38And I want to make sure that it works for me so well that I'm happy to just like not preach, but just tell somebody about this and say, you know what, it worked for me.
20:48So it's going to work for you.
20:49And, you know, like maintaining a good mental health is like trying to trying to like do nobody wrong and go to sleep every night in peace.
21:01I think it just adds up to that.
21:03I don't think it's anything else.
21:04I personally don't believe anybody is bad or wrong in the world.
21:09It's always situations and it's always, you know, the communities that you belong to that either shape your thought process or destroy it.
21:16And so as long as all of us can like wake up, do what you want.
21:22You know, you want to manipulate, you manipulate, you want to, you want to lie, you lie, you want to be happy, you be happy.
21:30You want to eat all the food in the restaurant, do it.
21:33Do whatever you want through the day that gets you through.
21:36But just make sure at the end of the day, you've not really used a negative skill of yours to hurt someone because that's not going to put you to sleep properly.
21:44And if you can achieve that, then you have the greatest mental health ever.
21:48And I follow the same rule.
21:51For future projects for your future projects, Madam,
21:54Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for all the support.
22:00Everybody that's watching us all around the world.
22:03You know, Mr. Ravi said something to me,
22:07If you have a name of Tamil people, you know, they will open their hearts and
22:15If you have a name of Tamil people, you will be able to help you.
22:18That is what he said, you know.
22:19If you have a name of your family, you will be able to help you.
22:24No problem.
22:25If you have a name of Tamil people, absolutely will honor you, will like you, will do such good things for you.
22:32If you have a name of Tamil people, you will be able to help you.
22:38If you have a little space in your hearts, you will pray with us.
22:44Stay with us.
22:45And walk this journey with us.
22:47Because we don't want to do it without you.
22:49Thank you. Thank you. Lovely talking to you all. All the best.
22:56Be happy. Enjoy life. Chill.
