Read on to know what your favourite Tamil stars are doing this season to beat the scorching heat. 

Nagarjuna 

“I am working, even though the temperature is rising again. I am shooting with Prakash Raj for ‘Gaganam’.” 

Nayantara 

“I just took a couple of days break to spend time in Dubai. I am back at work now. I’ll be shooting for three language films this summer. I know the mercury is soaring, but I can’t help it. I’ll take some precautions to avoid sun stroke since I am basically a workaholic.” 

R Madhavan 

“No vacations for me. I am in Kapurthala shooting with Kangana. From the frying pan into the fire - I am travelling from Kapurthala to Chennai.” 

Ileana 

“I will be busy shooting for a new film this summer thus I may not have a vacation in mind.” 

Ram Charan Tej 

“There will be no summer holiday for me this time. I’ll have to shoot for two films simultaneously. I’ll also be shuttling between cities to wrap up my work, so there’s to be precious little ‘me’ time this summer. Last year, I had some time for holidaying, but this year, I don’t think I can afford a break.” 

Trisha 

“There’s going to be no summer break for me this year. I have to finish my Hindi film and will need to join the shoot of my new Tamil film with Kamal Haasan later this month. I will make up for it by taking short breaks of three or four days.” 

Rana Daggubati 

“This summer, I’ll be shooting for my debut Bollywood film ‘Dum Maro Dum’ and an untitled Tamil film. Usually, summer is family time and we usually head to Kodaikanal. I like to travel, but I prefer cooler regions in summers.” 

Nag Chaitanya 

“Actually, I am bored because I have just had a two-month break after my last release ‘Ye Maya Chesave’. However, I’ve just had my share of fun holidaying in Hampi and Goa. I also spent some time listening to scripts. Now I am craving to be back before the arc lights as soon as possible. I don’t think I’ll be holidaying anywhere this summer.” 

Mamta Mohandas 

“Actually, I had earmarked June for a longish holiday but I had to give it up since I have just bagged a big Tamil film. I think it’s going to be worth missing my hols. I will be shooting abroad so I will do a bit of jet skiing and biking this summer. The early summer has taken its toll on me, so I am looking forward to this overseas shooting stint.” 

Ram 

“Well, I just came back from a 10-day holiday in the US and had a blast with my family. I had to take a short break since I have to promote my new film ‘Rama Rama’ and begin shooting for another film this month. I love to holiday in Italy and given a choice I’d like to head there this summer.” 

Priya Anand 

“I am taking a break this summer to visit my family in the US. I’ll be chilling out with my family and friends. After doing back-to-back films, I think I deserve this holiday. I’ll return to my work rejuvenated and in high spirits.”
