Madhavan, in an honest chat about Jodi Breakers, his new film with Bipasha Basu, and how he has successfully broken unhappy jodis in real life too

You have spent 10 years in the Hindi film industry since your debut Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein (2001). How does it feel?
I am associated with some of the best films in the industry so far, from Rang De Basanti to Guru to 3 Idiots. It has been a fabulous run to get into the archives.

After success as a solo lead in Tanu Weds Manu, do you feel more accepted in Bollywood?
I never feel confident because I have only one film in a year. If it works, great. If not, I'm screwed. I don't have energy to do more than one film a year. I don't know how people do it.

After playing gentlemanly roles in Rang De Basanti and Tanu Weds Manu, was Jodi Breakers an image change for you?
I have done Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein and Guru too. Even the Rang De Basanti and 3 Idiots characters were quite mastikhor. But I am doing a suave, romantic role after a really long time.
