Ramesh Aravind for no 'six-packs'

Ramesh Aravind is an actor who has not been caught by the six-pack mania that has attacked Sandalwood lately. Actors Chetan and Vijay worked hard in gyms to sport the much-wanted physique, hoping this would help make their films successful. But Ramesh Aravind, who plays the role of a cop in his forthcoming Venkata in Sankata, thinks otherwise.

The actor-director is very careful about playing characters which suit his age. He also believes that audiences are very intelligent and cannot be bribed into watching your movies. Ramesh says he always makes films sprinkled with humour because he is sure such films have a much better chance to win since everyone enjoys a good laugh.

So what would be Ramesh's take on actors sweating it out in gyms to display those washboard abs? The actor says that his motto is staying fit and being healthy, rather than displaying his muscles.
