# Shaam's Heartfelt Tribute to Lesa Lesa Co-Star Sreenivasan: "I Really Enjoyed His Sense of Humor!" Imagine sharing the screen with a comedy legend whose timing could light up any scene—now, years later, actor **Shaam** is reminiscing about that magic from the 2003 Tamil rom-com *Lesa Lesa*.[1][2] In an exclusive interview with the Times of India, Shaam opens up about his fond memories working alongside **Sreenivasan**, the Malayalam icon who brought hilarious energy to his supporting role in the film.[1] Directed by Priyadarshan, *Lesa Lesa* (also known as *Laysa Laysa*) stars Shaam and Trisha in the lead, with Vivek, Radha Ravi, Sreenivasan, and a special appearance by Madhavan adding sparkle to this remake of the Malayalam hit *Summer in Bethlehem*.[1][4][7] Shaam shares, "I really enjoyed his sense of humor," highlighting Sreenivasan's effortless wit that made their on-set moments unforgettable—think classic comic sequences alongside Cochin Haneefa that still have fans in splits.[1][2] The film's plot revolves around Chandru (Shaam), a fun-loving guy who ropes in his wealthy friend Rakesh to pose as the estate owner when his grandfather visits, leading to a whirlwind of romance, family chaos, and laughs.[1][3][4][6] Trisha shines as Bala, caught in a love triangle with twists involving a lecturer named Deva, while the ensemble cast delivers evergreen comedy praised by fans for songs like "Etho Ondru" and "Aval Ulaga Azhagiye," composed by Harris Jayaraj.[2][3] Reviews on platforms like Letterboxd and IMDb call out the "comic ensemble of Sreenivas, Innocent, Haneefa, and Vivek" for keeping the 2h34m runtime engaging, despite some noting a draggy second half.[3][4] Shaam's tribute reminds us why *Lesa Lesa* remains a feel-good classic—beautiful cinematography by Tirru, Priyadarshan's family-friendly vibe, and performances that blend sentiment with slapstick.[3][4][7] It's moments like these that make Tamil cinema timeless, bridging stars across industries.
