Why was Rajkiran chosen for Ajith's Kreedom?

In the film Kreedom, Ajith’s father wants him to become a police officer but much to his disappointment Ajith goes on to become gangster and carves a niche for himself. The role of Ajith’s father is a very powerful and a pivotal one and the director expected someone with a strong acting caliber to suit the bill. When the name of Rajkiran was suggested, it was accepted by one and all.

Rajkiran was approached and he agreed to don this role as he realized that it had immense potential to quench his acting thirst. According to Kollywood sources, Rajkiran is emerging to be a very good supportive and character artiste in Tamil films.
