‘Andhagan Andham’ promo song release from Prashanth starrer ‘Andhagan’*
‘Andhagan’ is not a remake but a remade Film: Thiagarajan
In order to popularize the movie ‘Andhagaan – The Pianist’, in which ‘Top Star’ Prashanth is playing the main character of the story, a promo song titled ‘Andhagaan Antham’ has been prepared with composer Santhosh Narayanan, music composer and playback singer Anirudh and ‘Makkal Selvan’ Vijay Sethupathi singing the background. . The content of this song is created and visualized by ‘Nadana Puyal’ Prabhudeva. Thalapathy Vijay released this song and congratulated the film crew.
Following this, an event was held in Chennai to launch this song. Director Thiagarajan, actor Prashanth, director-actor K.S. Ravikumar, actress Urvashi, actress Priya Anand, actress Vanitha Vijayakumar, actors Bhoovaiyar, Besant Ravi, Adesh Bala, Mohan Vaidya, cinematographer Ravi Yadav, Sony Music Company South Zone President Ashok Parwani and the film crew were present.
Thiagarajan, the director of the film, spoke on the occasion, “In 2019, I bought the Tamil rights of the Hindi film ‘Anthadoon’, amid fierce competition. Many big star actors, directors and producers in the Tamil film industry competed to buy the Tamil rights of the film.
If you’re wondering why you should buy this film, the hero of the story is a visually challenged person. He is a musician who plays the piano. A piano player from a young age, Prashant graduated fourth grade in piano from Trinity College of Music, London. I bought the Tamil rights of this story thinking that this story would be very suitable for him.
After purchasing the film, two years passed due to Corona. After that there were problems. After that I accepted the responsibility of directing the film. We handpicked star actors to suit each character. Especially since it has a doctor character. For that character, director and actor K. S. I contacted Ravikumar and said that he would be suitable. He also agreed to act after hearing the story. His contribution in the film is huge. He has perfected the character with a skillful performance.
Actress Priya Anand is a beautiful girl. In this film, we have shown him young and beautiful. His style walking on the streets of London and his outing will be admired by everyone.
Actress Simran also plays an important role in this film. Although a bit negative character, he has brought the character to life with a skillful performance. There is hope that he will definitely get an award this year for his best performance.
Next is Vanita Vijayakumar- who has played a suitable role to fuel her performance.
Karthik has played the role of a legendary actor. The friendship with him that started in ‘Alaigal Oiwathillai’ continues even today. He surprised everyone by visiting the shooting site at eight in the morning. In this film, you can see his jumpy performance in his early days.
Also, we have selected suitable star actors for even minor characters in the film. Samuthirakani, Bhoovaiyar, Mohan Vaidya, Adesh Bala and many others have acted.
Actor Yogi Babu has played the lead role after them. Yogi Babu’s collaboration with the much hyped actor for this film is also unforgettable.
Urvashi plays Yogi Babu’s sister. Urvashi has acted with me in some films. He has also acted in Prashant’s ‘Mannawa’. Urvashi’s character is present in the original film, but the character has been expanded in Tamil. Urvashi-Yogi Babu-KS Ravikumar-Prasanth have acted together which will give a new experience to the fans. All those scenes will excite the fans.
Ravi Yadav, who worked in Prashanth’s films ‘Sembaruthi’ and ‘Kadal Kavita’, is working as cinematographer in this film. Ravi Yadav who was in London happily agreed to work on this film when I invited him.
Art Director Senthil Raghavan and Sound Designer Lakshmi Narayanan have brought together artists who are highly proficient in their respective fields and have created this film.
Keeping Tamil fans in mind, we have included many things that are not available in the Hindi version. So Andagan is not a remake film but a remade film. That is, a recreated creation. Andhagan movie is innovative and elegantly designed for the fans. The climactic scene of the film will create a lot of discussion and will bring the fans back to the theatres
Yes. After the release of this film you will feel the difference between the Hindi film Andathoon and the Tamil film Andagan. We are planning to release this film in August,” he said.
Director – Actor K.S. Ravikumar said, “This is a very happy event. I have been watching Thyagarajan sir since my college days. I was an exporter. He was also an exporter. I had a crush on him in that way. I have seen films produced and acted by him. He has also seen the films I have directed and acted in. We had such a professional friendship.
It was at this moment that Thiagarajan invited him to act in the film ‘Andagan’. I agreed to act because of my love for him. After that I watched the Hindi film. Wonderful work. Just remake it normally and you will get success. But Thiagarajan sir has taken care of many things like star cast, grand production and worked hard to make the film.
He has crafted it elegantly without making the slightest compromise for the film. Even the monitor he used on the set was gigantic. At that time his involvement was well known. Congratulations to all the actors, actresses and technicians who acted in the film.
It was only after coming here that I came to know that Andhagan is Prasanth’s fiftieth film. I wish Prashant to touch a hundred films. Surely he will touch it. Despite his genial appearance, he has a childish heart.
I have met him at many film festivals before acting in this film. When I was directing the film ‘Puriyada Pujam’, producer Anpalaya Prabhakaran’s office was located in the adjacent premises of the film production company. Prashanth became a PC lead actor when I left four films and agreed to direct ‘Bondati Rajjiyam’ for Anbalaya Prabhakaran.
If there is a performance abroad during that period, the festival team will request that Prashant be signed first. To that extent, Prashanth has fans and fans in the world
Actress Urvashi has acted in this film. Instead of Urvashi she could have been named Rakshasi, such a talented actress.
This movie is going to be huge. It will be good. I wish the fans who watch this film, this will be a film that will remain in their minds even after watching the film and going home.
The song ‘Athagan Andham’ gets stuck in the mind even after hearing it once. I wish not only this promo song but also the film a big success,” he said.
Actress Vanitha Vijayakumar said, “Today is a very emotional day for me. This is the most important film in my film career. I have got an amazing role in this movie and I have done it well. I have not mentioned this because it will give me many opportunities. This is my family. Thiagarajan sir has been the best mentor in my life. I still love him today.
Prashant is not new to me. I had a crush on him when I was in school in the 90s. My first teenage crush was Prashant.
Over the past few years, I have developed a warm friendship with him. It is a beautiful friendship. Worth it. Prashant is the best man. I am very proud of him. His honesty, generosity, dedication and hard work are all things he has learned from his father. He always said, ‘Having a father like him (Thyagarajan) is enough’.
This movie is a quality work. It is formed by the alliance of excellent star artists and talented technicians. I have no intention of promoting this work. Because this movie itself will seek publicity. This movie will easily reach the fans automatically. This movie will be a huge success.
As a fan I have also watched the Hindi movie Andathun. I have also seen the foreign language remake of the film. But Thiagarajan sir has made this movie with great star power in Tamil.
Thiagarajan sir will pay the day’s salary on the same day after completing the work on the set while working on this movie. He paid double the salary while doing the background talk for the film. He didn’t give because he had money. It is a way of honoring and knowing the value of a star!
I lost my cell phone during a trip. Thiagarajan sir contacted then. Sensing my nervousness, he immediately asked where are you. “He immediately gifted me an expensive cell phone, that’s Thiagarajan sir,” he said.
Actress Priya Anand said, “It is only after coming here that I feel that it has been a long time since I worked in Tamil. I will say that director Thiagarajan is my friend in this entire film crew. All the actors who acted in this film agreed to act because of their love for Thiagarajan. Everyone had immense love for Prashant too. I have worked with many fellow artistes. But Prashant stands out above all others. He has a lot of passion and search for cinema. Prashanth supervised the VFX scenes for the film. He is aware of all the latest technologies that are introduced in cinema. It was only when I came here to work on this film that I got the joy of coming home to my mother,” he said.
Actor Prashanth said, “I am thankful to Thalapathy Vijay for releasing this Andagan Antham song. I gladly agreed and thanked him once again for taking the time to release this song. I am thankful to Prabhu Deva who created this song and Chandi Master who choreographed it. I am also thankful to Anirudh and Vijay Sethupathi who contributed to this song.
The question arises whether a promo song for a film can be made this grand. We have worked hard to create something that everyone will enjoy and will love, featuring star artists in this too.
Star artists have been cast for each of the minor characters in this film. Director Thiagarajan has been careful and effective in this matter. Karthik sir, K S. Ravikumar Sir, Urvashi Madam, Samuthirakani Sir, Manobala Sir, Yogi Babu Sir, Bhoovaiyar, Adesh Bala, Vanitha Vijayakumar, Semmalar Annam have played suitable artists for each character. All of them visited the shooting site and extended their full cooperation due to their love for Dad as soon as he called. I would like to take this moment to express my gratitude to all the artistes who still have respect for Dad.
Not only the actors but the technicians also worked together very talented. Cinematographer Ravi Yadav has worked hard and made every scene grand and elegant. If everyone says this film is grand, it is because of the cinematographer Ravi Yadav. I thank him at this moment for this.
Santhosh Narayanan’s music, Satish Surya’s cinematography, Senthil Raghavan’s art direction, every technician has shown their full potential.
The dance master Kala surprised by choreographing the song ‘En Valandeā¦’ which is featured in this film within six hours.
Everyone worked on whatever kind of scenes Dad wanted to portray on screen in this film. This movie is very good. Fans will be delighted to watch this film in theatres. They will be happy. I am waiting for that moment. At this moment, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to the fans who show me love and affection even today,” he said.
Actress Urvashi said, “Like a military man, Thiagarajan sir thinks that everything should happen according to time. In 1984, Thiagarajan sir produced the film ‘Komberi Mookan’ in which I acted opposite him. Saritha also acted in that film.
That respectful love and friendship that started from then continues today. I have acted in ‘Tamil’ with Prashanth. He is also my good friend. I have also acted in ‘Mannava’.
If I contact these two anytime and ask for help, they will come for me the next minute.
Andagan is a good movie. Thiagarajan has created this film by making changes to what our soil needs. The star alliance in this film has never been seen in any other film. This film should run well, I hope it will run, wish everyone,” he said.
