A.J. Balakrishnan, who directed the film Kamaraj, Welcome Back Gandhi, has directed this film.
Here’s what he shared with us about the film…
Thirukkural is a book that is leading the world in teaching humanity a moral way of life. The screenplay for this film has been written with the three pillars of Thirukkural as the central theme.
Thiruvalluvar also plays a role in the film in an attempt to find the creator through creation. Vasuki, along with the life of Tamils two thousand years ago, plays an important role in this film.
Along with love, valor is inseparable from Tamil life. The battlefield scenes that proclaim the valor of the Tamils of that time have been shot at great expense.
After seeing this film, the musician Ilaiyaraaja immediately agreed to compose music. He has also written two songs for the film, which are very poetic and meaningful, with words from Sangam literature.
In the third Tamil language, the musician who sits on the throne of the second Tamil language composes music for a great work for the first Tamil language, is a wonderful event in the history of Tamil for so many years.
It was only after G.U. Pope translated it into English that Thirukkural attracted the attention of scholars worldwide. Similarly, after this event, this Thirukkural film will definitely attract the attention of the world’s people on an international level, says director A.J. Balakrishnan.
