Ann Augustine who once dreamt of becoming a clinical psychologist is happy about her decision to embrace movies.Though from a film background, the daughter of actor Augustine never dreamt of wearing the grease paint. ���������I never thought I will enter tinseltown. My interest was always been psychology,��������� says the actor who wanted to do her master���������s abroad.
���������I was looking forward to a scholarship to study psychology abroad. That was when ���������Elsamma...��������� happened,��������� she says.
Ann thought of doing just one movie and then going ahead with her plans. But as sheer luck would have it, ���������Elsamma Enna Aankutty��������� became a hit and offers started pouring in. ���������I am enjoying what I am doing now. I have learnt that it���������s not just glitz and glamour but a lot of hard-work as well.���������
The young actor was recently in Kochi for the pooja of her upcoming movie ���������Ordinary.��������� Directed by Sugeeth, the movie will see her playing Anna, a charming post-woman. She is happy that after Elsamma she got a character which she can relate to. ���������After Elsamma, I never felt myself in the roles I did. But with Anna, I feel close to the character.���������
Ann has been associated with many debut directors. She says she doesn���������t have any reservations in acting for a debut director���������s project. ���������I feel they understand you better. I am a bit scared with senior directors. I have that respect and awe for them. But with a newcomer I am more relaxed.���������
However, Ann says she is choosy. ���������I always ask myself, will I be able to do it? I take up the project based on that faith!��������� She finds it easy to work with people whom she knows. ���������The best thing about ���������Ordinary��������� is that Sugeeth has a positive vibe about him.���������
Ann knows that she is not going to be in this profession for long. ���������You need a lot of luck to survive in this industry,��������� she says. So, does she believe in being lucky? ���������Of course, I believe in luck and destiny!���������
