A huge thank you to everyone. It is because of you that this series has received a huge response. You are the ones who brought this series to the people. My husband Prabhakaran is the producer of this series, but he named me and made me the producer. There were many difficulties during the making of this series. But I have witnessed firsthand how he overcame all that and struggled day and night without sleeping. He was obsessed with cinema and wanted to achieve in it. He has faced many humiliations. But his hard work has now paid off. This success is a recognition for him. We should continue to produce more works like this. Everyone in this group has put in hard work. Saravanan sir has been amazing. Namritha is our beautiful, cute heroine, she will do whatever the project requires without hesitation. Everyone from the art director, music director, editor has done a great job. Captain Balaji Selvaraj has given a great work. He is a director for the producer. He completed the shooting in 14 days. He is a hard worker. This success is the result of their hard work. Thanks to ZEE5 for bringing this success to the people. Thanks to the press and media friends.

I know director Balaji from the film Vidyum Mun. The journey that started there, and it is a joy to have come this far. Prabhakaran first thought of him as an assistant. He calls me Anna Anna, and as soon as he became the producer, I started calling him Sir. He is a hard worker. He can become a good actor. Namritha will not be like the heroine. He will be natural. He has acted beautifully. Saravanan sir, this is a big fight, we need to fight you on a bigger scale, we need to do many more films. Thank you to the press and media friends who praised this series and introduced it to the people.

Hello everyone, I have acted in many films, the films I acted in have been released, they will not run if released. The first film I acted in was Chhamt En Kaay, this success has come as a result of 34 years of hard work. Law and justice have been a turning point for me. Soori Anna director Balaji sir taught me and made me act in this character. It is a great joy that people recognize me. Thank you to everyone who supported this success.
Actor Soundar spoke…
Producer Prabhakaran is my uncle. I have told him many times not to come to cinema and fought him. But he will not listen. He is stubborn, this success came because of his hard work. His passion for his ambition has brought him here. He has taken this series on a small budget and promoted it more than that and won. Congratulations to him. Congratulations to the team that brought this series. Saravanan Siddappu has been the strength of this series. Thank you to him. Congratulations to everyone.
Actor Saravanan and Namritha MV play the lead roles in the series. After a gap of 15 years, Saravanan has returned as a hero with this series.
The series “Sattamum Needhiyum” is based on the concept of “Voice of the Voiceless”. When many around us are silent and unable to express their voices, this is the story of an ordinary man who breaks that silence and stands up for his rights and the welfare of others.
