[0:07](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=7) Hey, your mother and father are sitting there and watching. [0:09](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=9) You're sitting up there like you climbed onto the sofa. [0:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=11) That's not a circus. Get down. I'll say, “Okay, ma'am.” Then I'll slowly come down. [0:16](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=16) So I think it is a very reciprocal way of anchoring that I do. [0:20](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=20) These days, many people's worries probably go away when they watch this program of ma'am's. [0:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=26) Mm. “But, uh, then, ma'am has that kind of worry…” [0:29](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=29) A change… that, that relief. One person I really like is, uh… [0:35](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=35) actor, host, and comedian is Sunil Grover. [0:39](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=39) I really like him because I also like Sunil Grover and Kapil Sharma. [0:43](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=43) But when Sunil Grover plays a character… [0:46](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=46) He will never come out of that character. [0:48](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=48) He'll live as that character. Even if Amitabh Bachchan is standing in front of him, or Shah Rukh Khan, he stays in that character. [0:57](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=57) So I love his performance. What would I have done if I hadn't become an anchor or gotten into films? [1:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=63) Whatever it was, I would have been the best. I know that. [1:06](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=66) And I put my best effort into it, whatever the profession. [1:10](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=70) Like, if I were into sweeping, I would be the best at it. I'd go around sweeping everywhere, that's it. [1:15](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=75) I would find innovative ways to sweep. Don't you want to do a full-fledged interview in Malayalam now? [1:21](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=81) Of course I do. I've slowly started doing that now. [1:24](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=84) I'm starting to find a flow now when I talk with Sharath and others. [1:27](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=87) Anyway, even though we do so many programs here, I always feel sad that the people back home won’t understand this language I speak. [1:33](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=93) That’s something I always feel sad about. [1:35](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=95) So I definitely want to do something in Malayalam too, maybe very soon. [1:38](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=98) We’ll all lose our jobs. “Oh no, no, I won’t take anyone’s job.” [1:42](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=102) Then I had quite a few offers in between.” “Yes.” [1:43](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=103) “I’ve worked in Malayalam and Tamil too. [1:46](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=106) But then the kids, their school, education, and family… [1:50](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=110) I was busy in Hyderabad, and then I had to come here from there. [1:52](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=112) Here, with this and that going on for me… [1:54](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=114) I can’t put my legs in two boats. So I settled in one place with one set of commitments.” [1:57](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=117) “Is there anyone else you’d like to interview, or someone you’ve always wanted to meet like that?” [2:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=123) “That Mamookka.” “I haven’t even managed to get to Mamookka yet.” [2:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=125) Not yet. Haven't you seen Mamookka? I've seen him, but it was at a pre-release event. [2:10](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=130) I didn't get to talk to him much. Did you meet him? [2:13](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=133) I did. That's all. That's all. When I went up to Mamookka and spoke to him in Malayalam, Mamookka said, “I know Telugu. నాకు తెలుగు తెలుసు మాట్లాడతా” I've done a lot with Duvvasi sir. Oh, I— I've done a lot, but Mamookka's… [2:24](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=144) I wanted to ask something about DQ. There are a lot of DQ fans here. Right. [2:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=146) So, what would you say about DQ? DQ is such a sweetheart. [2:31](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=151) He is very down-to-earth. And likewise, DQ always appreciates me a lot when we're on stage. [2:39](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=159) He'll always say, “My heartbeat—” if Suma is there, I feel that I'm safe. [2:44](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=164) So, I am—I am very happy and thankful to him. [2:46](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=166) One last question. What are you planning to do in the future? [2:53](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=173) Or are you going to keep going like this? If so, do you have any kind of plan? [2:57](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=177) I'm starting my own public speaking classes. [3:02](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=182) I conducted a couple of small webinars. It's called Unmute with Suma. [3:06](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=186) Everyone thinks, when I do these Telugu programs, “Oh, she has so much self-expression. She handles such big stages.” [3:12](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=192) But I, too, had stage fright at the beginning. [3:15](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=195) I’ve been through the anxiety of wondering how to speak, and all of that. [3:19](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=199) I’m someone who’s come through it. So I feel that that same self-expression and freedom in communication should be given back to everyone. [3:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=206) So, from all these years of learning, I wrote a syllabus of my own. [3:31](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=211) I'm starting my own public speaking program. [3:34](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=214) Okay, ma'am. "That's right. And then FFJ NGO programs." [3:37](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=217) "We can't end this without asking a little about your husband." Okay. [3:41](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=221) "So, what is there to say about your husband?" [3:42](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=222) "We've seen it in so many films." That's right. [3:44](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=224) "How did your love story lead to marriage?" [3:49](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=229) "I was the lead heroine in a serial directed by Rajeev's father. [3:53](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=233) The serial was called Meghamala. I played the character of Meghamala. [3:57](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=237) My husband had a small role in it. But this minor character came along and hit on the lead heroine. [4:04](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=244) That's how it happened. Then Mom was with me twenty-four seven. [4:09](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=249) Mom wouldn't budge, because Grandma and the others had told her at home that she'd sent you into films too They said none of this was in our family. [4:16](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=256) So Mom was very afraid that she might marry a Telugu guy. [4:20](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=260) Whenever Mom looked, she’d be right there, following me around. [4:24](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=264) And yet, it happened. Then I said, “I’m Malayali. It won’t work. Your family is Telugu.” [4:30](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=270) I said it would all become a big problem. [4:32](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=272) Finally, somehow, Mom agreed to our marriage. [4:37](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=277) That’s how we got married. It was a Telugu-Malayalam-style wedding. [4:41](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=281) Yes. About fifty relatives came here from back home. [4:43](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=283) His father was a teacher to Chiranjeevi sir and... [4:45](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=285) Yes, to Rajinikanth sir too. Both his parents were teachers. [4:50](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=290) Then they were all in the same field—his father, mother, and son. [4:54](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=294) Then he continued in that same field. Have you told this story while interviewing Rajini sir and Chiranjeevi sir too? [4:58](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=298) I've been to Chiranjeevi sir's house many times, with my father-in-law and mother-in-law. [5:04](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=304) So they all know. I haven't personally interviewed Rajini sir yet. [5:08](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=308) Maybe, yeah, I'm manifesting that too very soon. [5:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=311) Okay, ma'am. Thank you, thank you very much. Thank you so much, Sharath. [5:13](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=313) I'm very happy I got to do an interview like this today. [5:17](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=317) So, sorry if I made any mistakes in Malayalam. [5:23](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=323) Not a problem at all. You spoke really well. It went well, didn't it? [5:25](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/ffr6nhcCAij5/en/anchor-suma-on-dulquer-salmaan-mammootty-and-public-speaking?t=325) Okay, thank you. Goodbye.
