I smoked ganja when I was young: Bhagayaraj

Stunt master Jaguar Thangam who spoke earlier was furious about people consuming ganja: Bhagayaraj.

At the audio launch of the film Kola, which is talks about the perils of addiction to drugs, ace filmmaker and actor Bhagyaraj admitted that he was also addicted to Ganja for some time when he was young.

Mothi. Pa who directs the film, says, “We are all in one way or other addicted to various things. One may get addicted to money, some to liquor, some to women, a few to power and a few others to fame. It is sort of an illusion and I am trying to approach the problem psychologically. Vikky Adhitya and Vishak play the male leads and Harini is the lead lady.”

Elaborating, Bhagyaraj said, “Stunt master Jaguar Thangam who spoke earlier was furious about people consuming ganja. I want to tell him that I myself had taken ganja and smoke through cigarette. It became a habit after one of my friends who later became my assistant introduced me in Kovai. After smoking ganja, we all get high and sit in the parapet wall and laugh for no reason. One day I felt this is not going to take us anywhere as I was dreaming to make it big in films then. All of a sudden I gave up the habit.”
