On this occasion,
Voice writer Parthiban Desingu spoke as follows….
My spiritual guru and inspiration in cinema is Murugadoss sir, I am happy to be here with his blessings. I am an ardent fan of Captain. I gave the title of his film Captain Prabhakaran to my first story but it did not work. My wish to work with Captain was not fulfilled. That dream has come true with the opportunity of Bandai Thalaivan. The title of this film is Bandai Thalaivan. If a person has a whole army behind him, then he is Bandai Thalaivan, that is the Captain only. After him, it is only suitable for Shanmuga Pandian. When Anbu first told this story, I did not think that I would write the dialogues for it. I am proud to have worked in this film. Everyone likes this film, thank you.
Cinematographer Satish Kumar said…,
I am sharing my experience with the captain here, I worked with him in a stunt scene, although I do not have much experience, but I realized that day that our captain is someone who respects everyone’s words, similarly Shanmuga Pandian is also patient and does not get angry, no matter how many takes he takes, he will finish it and leave from there, I see my captain sir in him. You will definitely like this film, my thanks to everyone who will make Shanmuga Pandian a big success.
Actor Rishi said..,
Thanks to director Anbu for giving me the opportunity, thank you to my producer too, when I was working in the cinema in the beginning, everyone would talk about Captain sir’s stunts, I waited for many days to see him in person but I have got a great opportunity to act with his son. I am very proud, I have played a cruel villain in this film, my character was completely different, you will know that when you watch the film. Thank you for your support and making this film a success.
Actress Yamini Chander said…,
I am very happy to have acted in this film. We have received Captain sir’s wishes, that is a great privilege. I am very proud to have acted in Ilayaraja sir’s songs. Shanmuga Pandian sir took care of all of us dearly. In this, he has acted more scenes with the elephant than with us. Both of them have become close friends. This film is also about them. I hope you all will like it. Thank you to everyone who worked on the film.
Director, actor Kasthuri Raja said…,
The title of the film is the strength of the elephant, more important than that is the blessings of the captain, I have many experiences with him, no matter how many platforms I have. The cinematographer worked tirelessly in this film, he has designed the scenes with great difficulty. Everything that Shanmuga Pandian did with the elephant required incredible courage, and my captain is the reason for that, and I saw the same style in him. The film crew faced many difficulties during the shoot, and beyond all that, the reason why this film has come to this point is the director and producer. My congratulations to them. Ilayaraja composed the music for this film, the name alone is enough, I don’t need to say anything about that music, I am sure this film will be a big success. Thank you to everyone.
Producer JSK Sathish said…,
Paramasivam, who produced this film, is my friend for 25 years, and I am very happy to be associated with him. I have seen this film, so I can say that this film will be a work that India will talk about. There is an even bigger feast waiting for the fans of the captain. The visuals of the film are truly thrilling, I don’t need to say anything about Shanmuga Pandian, he has the blood of a captain in him. I wish him a great future. My heartfelt thanks to all the crew.
Amma Creation D Siva said..,
If you want to see someone like Captain Sir, it is Shanmuga Pandian, the character of the captain is in that film
Everyone on the set knows it. I am the one who is very happy for Shanmuga Pandian’s success. We are definitely going to see it, this film will be a huge success, thank you.
Tamil Nadu Cinema Owners Association President Sridhar said…,
These days, only a few films with big actors are getting a good reception. But other times, small films keep the cinema alive, there is no change in this. This film will be the biggest hit of the year. The blessings of the captain are with Shanmuga Pandian. My best wishes to the film crew.
Director Ponram said…,
When I saw Shanmuga Pandian, I didn’t know him, I knew the captain. No one has been able to achieve his place till today, Shanmuga Pandian will achieve it. When you put him in the frame, such a grandeur, I hope you will like it when you watch the film. Congratulations to both the director and the cinematographer, it is clear from the trailer that they have put in a lot of hard work. Best wishes for the success of the film, thank you.
LK Sutheesh said…,
This film will be a big hit for Shanmuga Pandian. The Captain has his blessings for this film. Not only that, many good souls have come here to congratulate this film. Thank you to everyone. We will meet everyone at the silver ceremony of this film, thank you.
Vijaya Prabhakaran, the state youth secretary of the DMK, said…,
I have come to this stage as a fan, I have not spoken on the cinema stage, this makes me a little shy, I have come for my younger brother. I am the first fan of my father Vijayakanth, similarly I am the first fan of Shanmuga Pandian, if you want to see the Captain, we can see him in the form of Shanmuga Pandian. The Captain’s orders and tasks are still waiting. We will make all his wishes come true. And Ilayaraja has composed the music for this film, which is a blessing. The film is very good, you all will like it, we will all carry this film, thank you all.
Actor Sasikumar said…,
Vijayakant sir is our son of the soil, my desire to direct him did not come true, but I got an opportunity to direct Shanmuga Pandian, I was amazed by his eyes during a shoot, that’s Vijayakant sir. I will definitely direct Shanmuga Pandian. I have not had the experience of traveling with Captain sir, but I will definitely get that experience with his son. This Pada Thalaivan film will definitely be a big success. Thank you all.
DMDK leader Premalatha Vijayakanth said..,
This is the first time I am speaking on a cinema-related platform without a political platform. I am handing over Shanmuga Pandian to you from now on. I entrust it to the people of Tamil Nadu and the film industry. When I acted in the film Kallazhagar, Captain got close to the elephant and asked if I could bring an elephant home. I said, “The house is not that big.” Similarly, Shanmuga Pandian and Manian, who are currently acting with him, asked me to bring an elephant home. Both of them want to raise an elephant. We will definitely raise an elephant. My two sons will fill the captain’s place. Vijaya Prabhakaran will establish himself in politics and Shanmuga Pandian in cinema. There is no doubt about that.” Thank you to everyone who likes this film.
Shanmuga Pandian, the hero of the film Suratthalivan, spoke about it..
“This film is very close to my heart, because my father had heard the story of this film when he was young. My father had seen both the fight scenes in this film. So this film is very, very close to me. Suratthalivan cannot be compared with Kumki or any other film. This film has a completely different storyline”
“My first shot was with five elephants..” Everyone said that I was like my father. But I don’t know that, I can’t replace him. I have worked as hard as I can for this film. I am sure this film will impress all of you. Thank you all.
Director A R Murugadoss said…,
“Vijayakanth is the one who set the trend of villains being as good-looking as the actors in many films. You need a lot of faith for that, Vijayakanth sir did that. Everyone must have talked about Vijayakanth. But I have experience of working with him. I thought I was the only one who had worked with Vijayakanth. But when he said that Kasthuri Raja had also worked with him, I was a little jealous,
Shanmuga Pandian needs Vijayakanth’s perseverance and hard work. The people of Tamil Nadu will definitely not abandon you. They have got such a majestic actor. Shanmuga Pandian has Vijayakanth’s two eyes. Come on, grow up in cinema… You can definitely make Ramana 2. Wish you a big success for this film.
Director U Anbu said,
Thank you very much to my producers and Shanmuga Pandian. I trust in me and give me this work. They have given. I believe that I have kept the promise I made to them, my heartfelt thanks to all the crew who helped me, we will meet again at the success of the film.
After the success of Madurai Veeran, hero Shanmuga Pandian is playing a different role in this film in a different look. Yamini Chander, Kasthuri Raja, Munishkanth, Garudaram, Aruldas, Srijith Ravi, A.Venkatesh, S.S.Stanley, Loku N P K S, are playing important roles.
Musician Ilayaraja has composed the music for this film, and three wonderful songs have been recorded for the film.
The film will be released in theaters worldwide on May 23rd.
