I expected a good role. I was hoping to act in a film after I completed my graduate course. “
However, Vijayan did not accept the offer immediately and took a two-year hiatus from his career. In an interview, he revealed the reason for the break:
Eli’s face should be clean for the audience and the presenters’ mannerisms should not affect the acting. So Rahman [director] He suggested that I take a break from the anchor. I took a break because I knew I had to concentrate on one thing. While hosting is natural and spontaneous, acting is completely different.”
