Suman Ranganathan's doing a lot of role play

Suman Ranganathan says she's comfortable experimenting with roles as she's not in the rat race with the younger heroines
For actor Suman Ranganathan, work is a whole lot of fun. What with dancing to raunchy numbers one day to playing cop on another, and a journalist on the third, she feels that she has an added advantage over the younger lot as she gets to experiment more with roles.
'I'm not in any rat race. This allows me to take up roles that are traditionally considered risky for a heroine to essay,' says Suman, who is currently very excited about two of the roles she is doing, one being a cop in the quadrilingual Mynaa, and the other being a scribe in an untitled Ajith-starrer in Tamil.
'Both films are multi-starrers and they have interestingly scripted characters. Another challenge of being part of such films is the coordination of dates since so many big names are involved. Take my Tamil film for example ' the entire cast was required to be part of a particular scene. It was really tough as actors came from places as varied as Paris, Pune and Mumbai just to be part of the scene that was shot over two days,' says Suman.
Quiz her about the item numbers that she often does and she says, 'I might be doing the most challenging roles, like the cop role in Mynaa, but it is these dance numbers that get written and spoken about. But I have no qualms doing them as I'm enjoying all the work I'm doing equally.'
