Like everyone else, the feeling is yet to sink in for me also.” Recalling the last day of shoot, Narain said, “We cannot think about it being a farewell or send-off at the time of production.”So, what role does Narain play? “The only thing I can say is that I play a scientist and have an intense role in the film.”On the work front, Narain has just delivered the critically acclaimed film ‘Eko’ and the ‘Pharma’ series in Malayalam. He also has a couple of projects lined up for release in Tamil. On the other hand, the Madras High Court ordered the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) to grant film censor clearance for Vijay’s ‘Jana Nayagan’ on Friday.
