Speaking at the event, producer Kalaipuli S Thanu said, “My friend Akbar’s heir Ajmal Khan has produced the film. The scenes are thrilling enough to bring the audience to the edge of their seats. Iman’s music is an added bonus to the film. I wish this third film produced by this company a success as well,” he said.
Producer Thiagarajan said, “After a long time, I am attending the music and preview release ceremony held at the Government Museum’s Art Gallery. The hero of this ceremony is music composer Iman. He has always been a friend of the producers. I listened to the songs of this film. It is excellent. The song that has been mixed in Tamil and English is also good. The hero of the film, Naveen, is a very talented actor. The Tamil film industry should utilize his talent. I sincerely congratulate the director of the film. His talent was immediately evident after watching some scenes in the preview. I wish this film a huge success,” he said.
Producer Kathiresan said, ”I have watched the movie Eleven. It is an interesting thriller. I extend my heartfelt congratulations to the producers, the technicians who worked on it, and the actors and actresses who played the lead roles. Only when you watch the movie will you understand why the movie is named ‘Eleven’. I wish this movie a success.
Fans buy tickets in theaters to watch movies starring leading stars in Tamil cinema. But for small-budget movies made with an investment of ten crore rupees, everyone should come together and discuss and reduce the ticket prices. Even if it is a good movie, there are many difficulties in bringing it to the people. The collection percentage of a good movie in Tamil Nadu is low compared to Andhra Pradesh. In terms of cinema, the number of fans is highest on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Therefore, my request is that it would be good if the fee for films made with small investment is fixed at Rs 80 to Rs 100. I request that this should be tested on a trial basis for three or four months and that all the film fraternity should come together and hold discussions in this regard,” he said.
Actress Rithvika said, “I am happy to be a part of this film. This kind
I have also acted in the film ‘Sila Kyaukse Sila Mananth’ produced by the company before. It was well received by the audience. I hope this film will get huge support,” he said.
Producer D. Siva said, ”Producer Akbar is brave. He continues to produce films. I wish this film he produced a success. The permission to shoot in this theatre was suspended. Now it has been granted again. I congratulate the film crew for this. I hope the film ‘Eleven’ will be a huge success like the film ‘Ratsasan’.
Actor Naveen Chandra is a huge talent. I hope this film will give him a big opportunity in Tamil. My congratulations to Iman, who has composed the music for the film. Fastest – Economic – Friendly – Lovely – This film should give a huge success to music director Iman,” he said.
Actress Riya Hari said, ”All the producers, directors and technicians in the film industry are on this stage. The reason for this is Akbar sir. Everyone has come here because of their love for him. I am also happy to be his partner.
I would like to thank all the actors and technicians who worked with me in this film. Today’s hero of the festival, Iman sir, is always excited when I see the music director. He always spreads positivity when I meet him. I have met him many times. But I have never spoken to him.
When the first song was composed by him, I said that this is my favorite song. When the second song was composed, I said that this song is the one I liked the most. After that, they said, “Wait, the songs are coming continuously, listen to all the songs.” I like all the songs. The fans like all the songs. I also thank Sarigama for this moment.
I met Naveen for the first time during the photo shoot for the film. He broke my hesitation and got along well. He has taught me many small subtleties on the set. He keeps the entire crew on the set. The moments I worked with him were unforgettable. I thank him once again for this.
There is a magic in this film. When you watch this film, you will feel the unconditional love within you. That immense love has performed a magic. Even though this film is a thriller, it is an emotional film. I request everyone to go to the theaters to watch and enjoy this film, which will be released on May 16, and support it,” he said.
Speaking, Director K. Bhagyaraj said, “I have nothing to do with directing the film and watching the film. I really like crime action films. When I watch such films, my brain also gets some work. I am interested in what to do next. I have directed only two films in this genre, ‘Vidiyum Vari Kaathiru’ and ‘Oru Kaithiin Diary’. As soon as I was told that the film ‘Eleven’ is a crime thriller, I became interested. I am also eager to watch this film on the 16th itself. It will be well received by the fans. I extend my best wishes to the film crew,” he said.
Actress Abhirami said, “I am very happy. Thank you for including me in the inaugural journey of director Lokesh Ajils. I also thank music composer Iman for providing beautiful songs in this film. Working with producer Ajmal is natural for all stars. His care and love are immense. I thank everyone who worked with me in this film,” he said.
Director Ameer said, “My congratulations to the hero of this film, Naveen Chandra, the hero of today’s festival, music composer Iman, and producer Ajmal. He has brought the entire film industry together on stage.
I am a fan of ‘Vidhu Kalar Ribbon’. It is a song that I hum at every moment. Distributor Madurai Alagar, who spoke on stage here, does not praise any film so easily. If he is distributing this film, it means that this film is really good. And if Prabhu Solomon-Imaan Akbar are together… then the film will be good. Akbar is an auditor but he loves cinema beyond measure. That is why he has produced the film. The preview and songs of this film were good. I hope this film will be like this, just like films like ‘Bor Agni’ and ‘Ratsasan’ kept the audience on the edge of their seats. I hope it will be a success.
Congratulations,” he said.
Music composer D. Imman said, ” Very happy. First of all, thank you to the producers Akbar – Ajmal Khan – Riya Hari. Despite working in the film industry for 23 years, I have not had the opportunity to compose music for films in the crime thriller genre. In that sense, ‘Eleven’ is the first crime thriller film to be released with my music. For this, I express my gratitude to director Lokesh Ajils.
When I watch films on OTT, I like to watch many crime thriller films. I can watch it without losing interest until the climax.
I have worked with director Sundar C in eight films. At that time, his assistants will also be there. They have also given me opportunities while directing the film. In that sense, Lokesh met me and said that I am Sundar C’s assistant. When I asked him to tell you a story, I expected that I would be a mass commercial entertainer. But when I heard the story, it was in the genre of a crime thriller. After listening to the story, I asked him how he first thought of me for this story. You have not composed music for this genre yet. He said, I hope it will be good if you compose music. I liked it a lot.
Cinematographer Karthik Asokan’s contribution in this film was very good. He will be talked about after the release of this film.
Director Lokesh Ajils’ writing was excellent. He has made the film beautifully. I praised him on the phone after watching the film. Even the silence in this film will be liked by the fans.
Singer Mano has sung a song in this film. Although I have composed music for many songs so far, Mano has not sung in my music. That is happening in this film. I am happy about this. This film is releasing on May 16th. I hope that this film will be like ‘War Industry’ and ‘Ratsasan’. I request you to watch the film in the theater and give your love and support,” he said.
Speaking, Director Prabhu Solomon said, ”I have been continuously traveling with producer Akbar. I liked the story of this film as soon as I heard it. We started looking for actors suitable for the story. At that moment, Naveen Chandra, who has amazing acting skills, came into this story. After watching the film, you will all say that actor Naveen Chandra is capable of portraying the character perfectly on screen. After that, one by one they came into the film.
What made this film feel close to me was Karthik Asokan’s cinematography. The lighting environment is important for such films. He has a great future in cinema.
I am confident that the audience will give recognition to it when the film is released in theaters on May 16,” he said.
Speaking, Actor Naveen Chandra said, ”Nine years ago, I acted in a Tamil film called ‘Sarapam’. After that, I acted as the hero of the story in the Tamil film ‘Eleven’.
First of all, I would like to thank everyone who came to this event.
This is a very emotional moment. After hearing this story, I had expectations of how it would be to act in it. Producer Akbar, director Lokesh, and cinematographer Karthik, the trio, together, created the pre-production work for the film beautifully. So they were able to make this film easily.
We shot this film in two parts instead of one. During this, the actors and technicians worked together. This film has come out very well. It will be released on May 16 in Tamil and Telugu. I am waiting with great anticipation.
I am a big fan of Iman. All the songs in the film are good. I thank him for this.
I am amazed by Abhirami’s performance in the film ‘Virumaandi’. I was waiting for the days when I would act with him on the set, we became friends. I was amazed by his talent while acting in scenes. The experience of working with him was unforgettable.
Riya Hari gave me confidence on the set. The experience of working with her is unforgettable. She will become a great actress in the future. I congratulate her for that, and I welcome her on behalf of the Telugu film industry.
‘Eleven’ has been well-made, we were waiting for the film to be released at a good time. We decided to give the fans a good film and the film will be released on May 16. I request everyone to come to the theater and support it,” he said.
Director Lokesh Ajiles said, ”I would like to thank all the special guests who came here. If the actors are in place for a film, half the success is
They say that I am lucky in that way. I am grateful to Naveen, Dileephan, Riya, Abhirami, Rithvika for joining this film. I am a fan of Abhirami in the film Middle Class Madhavan.
My first film was to be directed in both languages, Tamil and Telugu, and I was a bit nervous in the beginning when I had to shoot as planned. But the reason for its successful completion is the actors, actresses and technicians who worked with me. It was because of their full cooperation that I completed the film as planned. For that, I thank everyone at this moment.
Karthik and I are friends. I have been friends since the beginning of the journey, working as an assistant director and he as an assistant cinematographer. He is the backbone of this film. Even I feel tired at times while the shooting is going on. But Karthik keeps working tirelessly. As soon as the teaser of this film was released, he signed on to do the cinematography for another film.
I am very lucky to have Iman sir. He has worked hard on the songs and background music in the film. Especially the background music he provides during the interval will definitely be talked about. We can see the 2.0 version of Imman sir in the film.
Producer Akbar – Not only did he finance the film, but he also worked as hard as we worked for the film. He was never a producer, he did all the work for the film. I feel a little jealous when I see him. Because he is such a strong person. This film will be a big success because of him, it should be successful. I believe that a film will be successful only if a producer is successful. I hope this film will be a big success in that way.
Actor Naveen, when he gets into a character, he stays that character. When writing a character, he does not write thinking about how he will appear on screen. But we would like it to be like this. Just as everyone who saw the film unanimously said that the film is good, everyone also praised Naveen Chandra’s performance. This film will give Naveen Chandra a good name in the Tamil film industry. I hope he gets many more opportunities.
Fans who watch ‘Eleven’ on May 16th will have a wonderful cinema experience. Come to the cinema to see it,” he said.
