In this meeting, Director M. Rajesh, actors Jayam Ravi, Natti alias Natraj, VTV Ganesh, actress Bhumika Chawla, cinematographer Vivekanand Santosham, film editor Ashish Joseph, art director R Kishore, fight training director Stunner Sam and others were present.
Producer Ashish Joseph said, “Working with director Rajesh was a unique experience. The duration of the scenes of this film was four and a half hours. Compiling it for two and a half hours was a challenge. However, we have compiled the film in a way that the fans will like. I request you to watch it in the theaters and give your support,” he said.
Art Director R. Kishore said, “This is the second film that I am working with director Rajesh. The film was challenging to work on. We did a lot of pre-production work before the shoot. In particular, we thought and worked on the venues, colors, etc. All the senior technicians I worked with were very cooperative. Everyone contributed and supported me as I was a budding technician. I would like to thank all the crew for this,” he said.
Fighting training director Stunner Sam said, “There will be no fighting scenes in director Rajesh’s films. This is his first action script. I am thankful to the director and producer for giving me an opportunity in this film. Actor Jayam Ravi and I met while we were training at the YMCA ground. good friend “I knew him when I was working as an assistant fight artist in films. I am thankful for giving him the opportunity to set up a fight scene in this film,” he said.
Cinematographer Vivekanand Santosham said, “Director Rajesh’s films are mostly dialogue-centric. But while listening to the story of Brother, I realized how much importance he has given to the visuals and dialogue. The story is written as if it takes place in Chennai and Ooty. For that, the director and I have worked well to understand it.
This is the second film in association with Screen Scene Entertainment. I have already worked in their production ‘Akilan’.
Working with actor Jayam Ravi brings a special excitement. Because he is also a technician. It is more appropriate to call him a technician than an actor. If there is any technical glitch on the set, he realizes it immediately and re-enacts it. He interacts and speaks like a brother at all times, not just on the set.
Not just a nutty actor but also a great cinematographer, he is both an actor and a technician while acting. He gave us a lot of advice on the set
Similarly, visualizing the songs was a challenge. Especially we planned to shoot the song ‘Makka Mishi’ with virtual technology. But when the situation arose that there would be a delay, we discussed it with myself and the director. After that we set up the halls. After that we discussed with the art director and shot the song sequence using different modern lighting setups.
Everyone has given their perfect cooperation and worked hard for this film. This movie has been made so that the entire family can go to the cinema and enjoy it on Diwali. When you watch this movie, you long to have a sister like Bhumika
And happens to those who are not born with sisters. People born with a sister will feel the need to see their sister once. Director Rajesh has made the film emotionally to suit it,” he said.
Nadraj Subramanian alias Natty said, “I liked the story of this film when the director was telling it. In today’s environment, there are many films like political films and comedy films. But in the last ten years, there have been very few films about family. I am sure that this movie will solve that problem.
Actor Jayam Ravi has exploded like a firecracker. There is a lot of difference between the character of Santhosh Subramaniam and Karthik in this film. So, Jayam Ravi’s performance will be a firecracker for this Diwali.
In this film, VTV Ganesh will be seen in action. This Diwali will be the celebration of the fans.
Cinematographer Vivekanand has done a wonderful job in this film. I thought the editing would be very difficult because all the scenes are necessary for the story.
Harris Jayaraj has worked hard for this film. After the songs of musician Ilayaraja, I have enjoyed the songs released in his music the most. I hope the background music of this film will be the same. I am thankful to director Rajesh for giving me a good role in this film. This Brother film will be a film that will make you feel good after watching a film in theaters after a long day,” he said.
Actor VTV Ganesh said, “Director Rajesh is good at directing comedy films. I was expecting how he is going to direct such a family film. When he met me, he only told me about things for my character. As he is a director who has already directed good films, I trusted him and agreed to act. At that moment I already knew that the producer of the film would agree to make the film after hearing the story. So I trusted him too. This is Jayam Ravi’s film which is my favorite hero beyond all of them. Good height. Good color. A talented actor. He has more direction knowledge than acting. As far as I know Jayam Ravi is the only person with such knowledge after Simbu.
Harris Jayaraj has given hit songs in this film. He has hit all the songs in this film. After that, when the director talked to me, he said that the background music of the film has also come out wonderfully. In a way it will be Harris Jayaraj’s comeback film.
Bhumika Chawla only knows Hindi. Apart from that, he knows English. I don’t know Tamil. It has been ten years since I left here. But while acting on the set, he listens and learns about the scene in detail. He and Natraj will play husband and wife in this film. They have acted wonderfully.
This movie will give a sense of family to those who usually don’t think of home at the moment. To that extent director Rajesh has directed this film.
Actor Rao Ramesh. In this film, he played the role of a collector and a strict officer. Although he is a Telugu actor, he wants to act in Tamil. This film will elevate him to great heights. He has given a wonderful performance in this film.
The producer has done everything required for this film. He is publishing it himself because of his faith in this film. I request you, the fans, to lend your hand and support the producer’s faith in this film,” he said.
Actress Bhumika Chawla said, “This film is special for me. Working in this film was an unforgettable experience. Actor Ravi is a wonderful person and a talented actor. Priyanka Arul Mohan is a cute girl. This movie is about the relationship between sister and brother. Go to theaters and enjoy this film on the festival day,” he said.
Director M. Rajesh said, “I am very happy. My film is releasing on Diwali. It has been three years since the film directed by me was released in theaters. After a short gap my film is releasing in theatres. A celebratory film is releasing on festival day. It makes me happy. I thank Jayam Ravi for this.
Before this we talked about working together. But nothing was possible. When I told him the script of this film, he listened to the whole thing and said OK. Since then till now he has been helping and giving complete cooperation beyond being an actor. He shared with me his thoughts not only as an actor but also for this film.
Actor Jayam Ravi said, “Brother is a good decadent movie. Brother has been made as a beautiful film in linear narration and the whole family will be happy. Brother is a film that has all the tick marks a Diwali film needs. We all worked happily while making this film.
During the shooting of this film, we were all a family. Producer Sundar provided all facilities for all of us. Bhumika’s birthday happened at the time of shooting and we celebrated by cutting a cake on the set. There was love and care from everyone throughout the days of the shoot. The actors and technicians who worked in this film cannot be forgotten. This is a hardworking movie.
Fight training director Stunner has known Sam since childhood. There will be a scene of running on a tree in Paranmai. When I hesitated to act in that scene.. he made me believe by showing him running on that tree. Working with him in this film was a joyous experience.
Art director Kishore is a talented artist who can handle any complex moment with ease.
Editing family drama genre movies is a difficult thing. My father, editor Mohan, has edited many films of the family drama genre. I have seen it from near then. I know how difficult it is. So editing these types of images requires a skilled editor. Editing these types of images requires practice and experience. It’s all down to Asish who has edited the film. He also has a bright future.
Natty sir is an actor for uni. You can never understand him hero..? Villain ..? Character Artista..? Are you going to do comedy? Cannot be understood. But no matter what character he plays, he has a unique acting talent. I am a huge fan of his cinematography. He is a great actor and one gets to know when working with him.
Bhumika- She has acted in many films. A face that never gets boring whenever you see him on screen. My family likes him very much. All family members are his fans. Everyone was happy when I told them that I will be playing Bhumika’s younger brother in this film. The fact that he has agreed to act in this film is an added strength to this film. Everyone knows that after the release of the film. His acting skills will be talked about after the release of the film.
Actor VTV Ganesh is always jovial on the sets. At some point, he would point out some angles to me and advise me to act like this. That would be a new thing. So I am trying some new things in this film.. I thank him for this.
Harris Jayaraj is the music composer who gives hits to my films. He gave all the songs in the films ‘Engeyum Kaadhal’ and ‘Dham Dhoom’ as hit albums. He also made this film a hit.
My fans were upset that I didn’t dance. They were also upset that I am only acting in A Certificate films. I have also danced for them in this film. U certified film. This is. I want to act in a dance film in the future. The song ‘Makka Mishi’ featured in this film has become a hit. But there is an emotional song between sister and brother in this film. This song became a hit after the release of the film.
Director Rajesh deserves more credit for his talent. He conveys emotions beautifully. I loved what he said in SMS. All the characters featured in his screenplays have a personality. He will give a good chance even to the actors who are doing two scenes.
I have also acted well in this film. Heroine Priyanka is a beautiful and cute girl who grabs everyone’s attention whenever she is in a scene on the sets. He also speaks well while speaking dialogues.
This movie is a movie that everyone can go to theaters with family and enjoy. Happy Diwali to all,” he said.
