MaddyMad about Madhavan

   Shameem I Shah

The name is:
Madhavan

Your claim to fame :
My first film 'Alaipayuthey' with Mani Ratnam.

On a scale of 1-10, how Net-savvy are you?:
I would give myself an 8.

How often do you surf?:
Daily. I generally surf for about two hours every night.

Madhavan Your favourite hangouts on the Internet:
I like Yahoo! Clubs and my own Web site. I also like surfing sites on electronics like Panasonic and Amazon. City specific sites are interesting too, as they let me find out what people say about the entertainment industry and especially my films.

What do you like best about the Web?:
The ability to open up doors to the entire world through a single medium is fascinating, to say the least. As an actor, it has helped me tremendously. I have this habit of logging on to chat rooms as different people -- a tormented wife or 16-year-old, for example. Convincing people that I am indeed what I portray is a good exercise. In fact, at one of the rooms I frequent my ID Suzy16 has as many as 17 boyfriends!

Madhavan Your idea of a perfect Web site:
One where its ideas come across on the first page itself. It should also have proper links and should avoid looking too cluttered.

Do you go ego-surfing, checking out sites or pages devoted to you?:
Yes, I do. It is interesting to get varying opinions about my roles. However, I don't care too much for news about myself.

Did you ever have a strange experience online? :
It was amazing when I once visited a chat room and found everyone discussing my film. That was quite an interesting experience.

Madhavan If you could sell something online, what would it be:
Not a product, for sure. I would rather have my ideas on philosophy and life online.

One celebrity you would like to chat with:
Whoopi Goldberg. I have yet to come across a more eloquent actress. And yes, Steven Spielberg.
