Aactor John Vijay, who played a bad cop in Mouna Guru, is busy playing a baddie in films again. Apart from that, the man is also busy with a reality show project that he is doing for a private TV channel. Apparently, the  channel is on a hunt for Tamil speaking actresses. The actor, who made his debut in Oram Po as a funny villain, has finished shooting for Masala Cafe and Bachelor Party (Malayalam). “In Masala Cafe, I again play a bad cop, while in Bachelor Party I’m playing a baddie against five heroes including Prithiviraj, Kalabhavanmani and Indrajith,” says the actor. Is he getting the same kind of roles after Mouna Guru? “No. In fact, Masala Cafe happened even before Mouna Guru. But I love playing baddie roles. Director Santhakumar told me that he had only me in his mind when he was writing the cop character. I hope some other director is sitting somewhere now and writing a tailer-made role for me,” smiles John Vijay.
