Lawrence has scored heavily as a director, both in Kollywood and Tollywood and his prominence has increased further with the success of Kanchana. But, one question that looms large is why he has chosen to stay away from the big stars of Kollywood. If that was a policy decision, the same should have applied in Telugu too. But, he has done a couple of films with Nagarjuna.When asked about his reluctance to work with the leading men of the Tamil industry, he said that there was no such thing at all. He clarified that there were plans of remaking his Telugu hit Mass, which had featured Nagarjuna, in Tamil with Vijay in the lead. Talks for this film were held and Vijay was also impressed with the story. But, it so happened that Vijay was also doing Thiruppachi at the same time and felt that stories of the two films had lots of similarities. This eventually led to the idea being shelved.
However, Lawrence added that if the right opportunity comes up, he will surely work with Vijay in the future.
