However, he is very curious about the process and hence, decided on trying acting.

A lot of people and journalists have been seeking reason as to why Raj hasn’t tried acting, and Kaduval Paathi Mirugam Paathi was his answer to all those people. Raj loved acting as an experience and is glad that he was able to garner stories to tell but he is extremely fond of producing. He likes being the person on set who holds the purse strings, and he has stated that he will be a producer until he is 70 years old at least. Raj has also tried his hand as an actor in the Telugu Film Industry.

His first Telugu film is called ‘Rakthapadam’, which is a period film on gangsters. Raj has a personal inclination towards playing characters like villains and doing numerous action sequences. He has confessed that he is not a fan of the roles of a lover boy running behind trees and singing songs. Raj has a long list of friends in the business. Raj has also walked the ramp for designer Sanjana John. The only reason he agreed to model was because of their friendship.

Raj has also produced a Malayalam film, and hence, it can be concluded that Raj Zacharias has worked in all linguistic cinemas of the South Indian Industry. He also produced a multi-lingual movie called ‘ Team 5 Click to look into! >> Read More... ’ which cast controversially banned cricketer ‘Sreesanth’ in the lead role. The film didn’t do well, and Raj’s choices for actors were demeaned as a publicity stunt. Raj is not very keen on acting but if good opportunities come his way he would be glad to resume acting.

He has also revealed that he doesn’t act for money but for the curiosity and the layers of the character. Hence, he will only take up roles that interest him. He has already acted in Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam flicks. His movies are multilinguistic and are released in more than one language because Raj has earlier strategized that this increases the outreach and widens the spectrum of the audience received by the film.
