Even as rumour mills working overtime saying Karthi Sivakumar and Tamannah are seeing each other, the ‘Paiyaa’ hero has said that he was awestruck by the complexion of his ladylove in the movie.
“When I was working as an assistant to Mani Ratnam, Kareena Kapoor stunned me with her skin tone on the sets of ‘Yuva’. But I later realised that Tamannah is fairer than Kareena when I met her first for Paiyaa,” the young actor has said in an interview.
He added: “The girl was so fair that she was shining bright than the white dress she was wearing. I admire her a lot.” Karthi is however careful in denying reports on his alleged relationship with Tamannah.
“Some say I have recommended her for my forthcoming film. There is no truth in it and Tamannah no more needs recommendations. The makers of the movie, who felt that our chemistry was great in ‘Paiyaa’, decided to cast us together again,” he said.
