At this event…
Producer Pandian Parasuraman spoke…
Through Vijay Ganapathy Pictures, we will give a movie that all Tamil people will like. Hero Sasikumar sir has done all the things for this movie. Director Sathya Siva has shot the movie wonderfully. Lijo Mol has acted wonderfully, everyone said he was the one for this role. Ghibran sir has made us sit on the edge of our seats with his music. Thanks to Trend Music for joining us. The film has turned out great, thank you all for your support.
Producer Amma Siva said…
The problem with production is that a talented person will not be honest, and an honest person will not be talented, but Pandian is a combination of both. A very hard worker. A gentle person. Pandian has brought this film with great difficulty. May this film bring Pandian a huge success. The hero of this festival, Ghibran, gives excellent music, congratulations. Sathya Siva has come after a short break, congratulations on his success. I will see Sasikumar’s success as my success, I like him so much. He is very honest. It is happy to see him happy. Congratulations on giving him another success like the success of Tourist Family. Thank you all.
Cinematographer Udayakumar said..
It was a pleasure working on this film. I have been working with director Sathya Siva since the film Kazhugu. He is clear about what he wants. The art director has created a huge set in this film. We have shown it very well in the film. Sasikumar sir has worked very hard and I hope everyone likes the film. Thank you.
Jithesh spoke on behalf of Trend Music..
We had talked about joining this film while it was being made. The director recommended the producer. He has worked hard for many years to make this film. Everyone should support it. It is a pleasure to work with my favorite music composer Ghibran. It is a pleasure to have Lijo Mol Jose in this film. Everyone has given excellent work. Everyone should support it. Thank you.
Actor Manikandan spoke…
It is a pleasure to work in this film. After hard work, the release of Freedom is like we got freedom. Sasikumar sir called me and invited me for this film. Thank you to director Sathya Siva sir for making me act in this film. Thank you to everyone who supported the film.
Actor Antony spoke…
Pandyan sir called me to his office and gave me an advance and said that he was going to do this film. He has turned from a manager to a producer and made this film. The film started in 2023, but you don’t know that in the film. Director Sathya Siva is a strict director and has directed it very well. I don’t accept every film that comes to me. I only act in films that I like. Thank you to Sathya Siva sir for making me act in this film. The art director has put up a jail set, everyone will definitely appreciate it. Ghibran sir is giving good music within the budget. This will be a very important film for Lijo Mol ma’am. Her acting will be appreciated. Although we interact with many people in the cinema, the closest people to me are Vijay Sethupathi brother, Sasikumar brother, and GV. Sasikumar brother has no cinematic background. He worked so hard that we didn’t even recognize him during the shooting. Manikandan is a very natural actor who will say whatever comes to mind. I am happy to have acted with him. Thank you to everyone who worked on the film.
Lyricist Arun Bharathi said…
Thank you to the producer, director, and music director Ghibran for giving me a chance in the film Freedom. I have written a song for Sasikumar sir for the first time, thank you to him. I have known Ghibran sir for a long time, but I have only now joined him. The songs written by Mohan Raja sir in this film were also wonderful. I hope you all like the film, thank you.
Lyricist Mohan Rajan said…
I wrote all the songs in Sasikumar sir’s film Tourist Family, I am happy that the film was a huge success. The film Eesan gave me recognition. It was a pleasure to work with him again in a huge hit film. It was a pleasure to write a song for this film as well. I have written a lullaby for the film, which everyone likes. It is rare for a composer to have an album hit, but Vaagai Sutava is the first to do so.
Ghibran has been doing well, and he has done well in this film too. This film should be a huge success, thanks to producer Pandian sir. Thanks to everyone.
Music composer Ghibran said….
Before the film started, Sathya Siva said a line, but producer Pandian sir got involved with the film better than him and told the story. He had great enthusiasm throughout the film. Everyone has worked hard on the film. The film is coming next week, we are very confident. Sathya Siva was very easy-going with me, he would even tell me what he wanted quietly. He has shot the film very well. Sasi sir is happy to continue working with you. Everyone has acted well in the film. The technicians have given their full effort. Everyone, go watch the film in the theater, thank you to everyone.
Art director C Udayakumar said..
I was working as an assistant, it was producer Pandian sir who got me a chance in a film, and he gave me this chance too. The true story never fails, this is a story that happened in my life. I am from Sri Lanka, this is a story that happened in my real life. This is definitely going to be liked by the people. We have created many sets very realistically. I worked in Nandan too and this film will definitely be a success, thank you.
Actress Lijomol Jose said…
I have been doing Tamil films but in this film I have acted as a Sri Lankan girl, normal Tamil is difficult for me, but in this I have acted in Sri Lankan Tamil, especially the director keeps telling me the character for every scene and he took good care of me. It was a pleasure to act with Sasikumar sir. I got chicken pox during the sheeting, then Sasikumar sir came and supported me and sent me to the hospital. Everyone has worked very hard on this film, thank you to everyone.
Director RK Selvamani said..
Producer Pandian is a close friend of mine, he worked as a manager in my film. One day he came and said that he was going to do a film. I asked him how, Sasikumar sir said that he would help. When Sathya Siva told me this story, I wanted to direct this film, it is such a good story. If this film is made very well, it is because of this team. Their hard work is visible in the film. Sasikumar is a very genuine person. Earlier, if there was a first copy, it would be released, but today, even if the first copy is ready, the film cannot be released due to many rights issues. Today, it is released only on the date that OTT says. When you give in like Sasikumar, the film can be released. Everyone should do that. This story is about a community that really suffered, fighting for their freedom. It is difficult to capture the true incident, the truth in India. If you capture the truth, it hurts both the opposition and the ruling party. That is why I do not capture the true incident. But in this film, they have captured the most compelling truth, very well. Congratulations on the film becoming a huge success.
Director Sathya Siva said…
I was able to do this because my family allowed me to be free. Everyone has worked as hard as they could in this film. All the technicians worked very well. Ghibran sir is the one who can beat him in the background music. When we end the scene, when we go to him, it will be in a completely different evolution. To show someone as good, we need to have scenes, but showing Sasikumar sir is enough. Similarly, when it comes to innocent and poor people, showing Lijo Mole is enough, there is no need to have a separate scene. He has learned Sri Lankan Tamil on the sheet and spoken and has put in a lot of effort. What film could Pandian sir have done as his first film, we will get a name, but will we get money? When the cinema environment is like this, he has become more involved in this story than me and done this. This film should be a big success for him. Sasikumar sir is a very good person, I did a film with him before and it didn’t go well, many people would have said no to the next film, but he trusted me and this story, thank you to him. We have made this film on your trust, please support me, thank you.
Director Sasikumar said…
Freedom is a film that is close to my heart, the art director has done a great job. I only see the cinematographer talking here, he always only looks after his work. This is his fourth film with Ghibran, he has done a great job. My thanks to him. After Lijo came, this film was different. Manikandan would feed me all the food. It was a pleasure to act with him. Antony told me all his difficulties while laughing. We have also suffered a lot. I know that producer Pandian is a manager, when he first said he would produce, I said no. No sir, I will do it. He is a very light-hearted person and his faith has made this film reach the release. This film will not be a comedy like Tourist Family, it is a film about the hardships of being in jail, and the audience should be made aware of that. It is a true story that happened in 1991. It is a story that we do not know. Thanks to Pandian for making such a film. I really like the work of director Sathya Siva. Success or failure is nothing, I like his work. I just watched his story. Everyone will like this film. Please give your support to the film, thank you.
The film has been made into a stunning thriller drama with a thrilling screenplay and a thrilling story based on a true incident that happened in the 90s.
The director has played the hero in the film, actor Sasikumar, and has played a different role. Lijomol, who attracted attention in the film Jaibhim, has played the heroine in the film Jose. He has played the villain in the film Mirattum Sudev Nair, who is a threat in Bollywood films. Along with them, KGF Malavika, Bosevenkat, M Ramasamy, and Ramesh Khanna play important roles.
Pandian Parasuraman, who has worked as an executive producer of many big films in Tamil, has produced this film on a grand budget for the first time under Vijaya Ganapathy Pictures.
The film will be released in theaters worldwide on July 10th.
