Young lead actor Satyadev and Kannada star Dolly Dhananjaya starrer Zebra, directed by Easwar Karthik, was released last week on October 22 as a pan-Indian crime action entertainer.
In an innovative field, with a varied screenplay, the movie has received a great response from the fans and has become a blockbuster success.
In this situation, the film crew met the press and media friends in Chennai today and thanked them.
Producer Dinesh said…
Press friends, we are all Tamilians. This story originated here in Chennai. I first worked in the media. I first worked in the show Anjaraippetti, and after working in succession, I have made this movie. Easwar gave a screenplay for this film that would take five films. He has so much stuff. He has the talent to be a good director in India. You all praised him. With your support, the film has become a huge success. I have come to believe that the first film can be given on a big budget. Thank you all for giving me that confidence.
Distributor Raghupathi said…
I thought about making this film as soon as the Zebra trailer came out. We postponed the film that was supposed to come for Diwali. Even though it is in the style of Lucky Bhaskar, we believed that the critics would understand the story and appreciate it. Similarly, the film has become a huge success with your support. The director has given the film very well. Congratulations to the film crew.
Editor Anil Girish said…
A 15-year dream has come true. I came from Coimbatore 15 years ago and grew up on my own and worked as an editor in this film. I have never worked for anyone, I did not get that opportunity. I have reached this place little by little by making small short films. I met Easwar in 2018. The journey with him was unforgettable. He entrusted me with the film Penguin. Now Zebra. This film came into being because of Bala sir and Dinesh sir’s support. I would like to thank Easwar for giving me this opportunity. The shoot would have been lively if Sathyaraj sir was there. Working with him was a blessing. Bala sir’s vision has made this film a big film, which started with a small budget. Thank you for your support.
Dubbing writer Ashok said…
This opportunity came through Bala sir. I saw this film, and as soon as I saw the film, I felt the need to do this film. At that time, Lucky Bhaskar was not there, it was very new. All the characters were very impressive. I felt that it should be done well in Tamil. I hope we have done it right, thank you.
Screenwriter Yuva said..,
We started this as a small film. Thank you Bala sir, Easwar and the team for making it a big film. Thank you for supporting the film on a large scale and making it a success.
Director Easwar Karthik said..,
This is where my journey began. Here I have enjoyed the festivals of other films. My first film Penguin was a bit of a flop. I accept full responsibility for that. We started this story by correcting it. Penguin took me to minus 1. To recover from that, everyone told me to do another story only once and I started this story by saying let’s fix it. When I told the story to Bala sir and Dinesh sir, I was very scared. But as soon as I heard the story, they immediately gave me a check, it was like a dream come true. I was going to do this film here. But at that time it was not financially possible, so it went to Telugu. We did it in a way that pleased the fans there. I am very happy to see everyone celebrating in the theater. This success is because of you all.
Actor Sathya Dev said…
I have a special connection with Tamil Nadu. I really like Tamil films. I really wanted to do a Tamil film. I am happy that it happened through Zebra. The reception the film has received has given me great joy. Your appreciation has given me great encouragement. Thank you very much for your love. I will learn Tamil soon. Thank you to Sathyaraj sir who was the backbone of the film. Director Easwar had written an 800-page screenplay for this film. He had written in detail, starting from the music and the audience reaction. What he wrote happened exactly in the theater. He will definitely become a great director. Anil is being praised for his editing. Ravi Basrur’s music was a great strength of the film. Thank you for your support and love.
Producer Bala Sundaram said…
This is my first stage. I wanted to make this the first film for Old Town Pictures because I am from Cuddalore, Old Town is our town, bring it somewhere.
As soon as Easwar told us this story, we felt that we should definitely do this. It was Dinesh who pulled me to the production. As soon as we heard this story, we thought that we should make this big somehow. We wanted to do it by combining Tamil and Malayalam. There were a lot of problems right from the start of planning, we told this story to all the actors in Tamil. We decided that the actors are the ones who agree that not a single line should be changed in this story. Sathya Dev worked so enthusiastically. There can be no one as hardworking as Easwar. He worked like a monster. Anil is a wonderful editor. We have made this film by overcoming big obstacles. Ravi Basrur and Sathyaraj sir were the only ones who were a symbol to everyone in our team. Now we have given a film where our names are known. Thanks to Easwar for giving us this story. The promotion and hard work that Sathya Dev and Dhananjaya gave, no other actor will give us that much. They worked so hard. Thank you to them. Thank you to Yuva who worked on this story. Thank you to Sathyaraj sir who stood by us wholeheartedly. Thank you to all of you who supported us.
Actor Sathyaraj said…
I did not act expecting such success. Positive reviews keep coming every day. It is housefull in Hindi. It has received a good reception from all sides. I welcome Sathyadev to Tamil. He said that he is learning Tamil. I have been acting in Telugu for 15 years but have not learned Telugu yet. Sathyadev has made me dub in Telugu in this film. Thank you to him for that. This team is a wonderful team. The busy person in Tamil now is Ashok. With the increase in Pan Indian films, his work has increased. If they praise the editor in a film, then his hard work was like that. Director Easwar has given the film wonderfully. Sathya’s passion and dedication towards the film is great. He has worked so hard. Congratulations to all those who worked for the film. Thank you all for your great support.
