Sai Pallavi says she made Rajkumar Periyasamy promise her scenes wouldn't be cut in Amaran

Actor Sai Pallavi, who is awaiting the release of her much-awaited film Amaran, starring Sivakarthikeyan in the lead role, revealed that she was skeptical about signing the film. Known for being selective about her films and roles, the actor said that it’s easy for filmmakers to chop out women actors’ scenes in male-centric films and mentioned that she made director Rajkumar Periyasamy promise her scenes wouldn’t be cut in the film.

In a recent interview with Behindwoods, she explained, "Most of the time, in biopics or male-driven films, the makers easily cut out the heroine’s portions, citing length issues. So, I asked Amaran's director, Rajkumar, to put it in writing that he wouldn’t do that to me. Of course, I took that liberty with him, and he assured me that my character, Indhu Rebecca Varghese, is as important to the film as Major Mukund Varadarajan."
