‘Signal at 11:30’ is written and directed by Malarvizhi Nadesan, with music composed by D. Imman. The film is produced by Malarvizhi Nadesan and Shivani Subramani under the banner of Alar Studios. It features Santhosh Prathap, Pujita Ponnada, and Bhavya Trikha in the lead roles, with Munishkanth and Jayaprakash also playing significant parts. The trailer and music launch event for the film was held recently.
Co-producer Shivani Subramani stated, “My interest in cinema was sparked by watching the films of directors Perarasu and Udayakumar. Conversations with Dhananjayan sir always bring a positive vibe. D. Imman is a great strength to our film. The entire crew has worked exceptionally well. My mother, as the director, has helmed the project brilliantly. I am sure you will all enjoy the film.”
Art Director Muni Krishnan remarked, “The film has turned out very well.”
Cinematographer Raja said, “Everyone has worked with complete dedication on this film. Please watch it and share your thoughts.”
Actor Jayaprakash commented, “I wasn’t fully aware of the entire story—I only knew the scenes I was involved in. However, seeing the trailer now, it looks fantastic. The director has assembled an excellent cast and technical crew. Best wishes to the producers, the director, and the entire team.” Producer Dhananjayan stated, “Driven by a passion for cinema, director Malarvizhi has transitioned into the film industry from a different field. I watched the film; it is unique and engaging. Recently, Tamil cinema has been seeing the release of quality films that are also performing well at the box office. I hope this film joins that list. As producers, we have placed several requests before the Tamil Nadu government, and they are being addressed one by one. Best wishes for the film’s success.”
Director R.V. Udayakumar remarked, “Tamil cinema is inseparable from our daily lives—which is precisely why it has even produced Chief Ministers. I congratulate director Malarvizhi, who has entered cinema from another profession, as well as her daughter. The film has turned out fantastic. Small-budget films require the support of the industry and the audience alike. I wish everyone who worked on this film great success and a bright future.”
Director Perarasu said, “When someone who runs a school makes a film, you can be certain they have a good story to tell—I have that confidence in director Malarvizhi. After Ilaiyaraaja, it is D. Imman who creates music that truly touches the heart. The trailer shows that Santhosh Prathap, the rest of the cast, and the technical crew have all done an excellent job. Best wishes for the film’s success.”
Editor Kalaivanan noted, “It is small-scale films that sustain technicians like me. Even if we cannot actively celebrate them, we must at least protect them—that is the reason I came here today. Malarvizhi has put in a great deal of hard work to make this film. Please watch it in theaters and celebrate it.” Lyricist Mohanraja said, “I wrote the ‘Jojo’ song for this film; it is a song that truly satisfies the soul. I have worked with D. Imman on many projects, and I am grateful for this opportunity. Director Malarvizhi and I are from the same neighborhood in Chennai. The film is sure to be a success. Santhosh deserves to play the lead in many more films. Thank you to everyone who has come today.”
Subash, director of the film ‘Blast’, remarked, “I was amazed to learn that the same person is handling both the direction and production. The film is bound to succeed simply for the sheer effort put into it. Santhosh is a hard worker, and I hope to see him reach great heights. Imman’s music is wonderful. I truly hope you all extend your support to this film.”
Actor Vidharth stated, “Pratap is a very gentle person who treats everyone with kindness; for his sake alone, this film deserves to be a success. The fact that Dhananjayan sir has watched the film and is here suggests that it has turned out exceptionally well. Having Imman as the music director adds great strength to the project. Best wishes for the film’s success.”
Actress Bhavya said, “I thank director Malarvizhi ma’am for giving me this opportunity; she has worked incredibly hard. It was a pleasure working with Santhosh and the entire team. Imman sir’s music is fantastic—I felt a personal connection to the ‘Jojo’ song. This is a unique psychological thriller, and I hope everyone enjoys it.”
Actress Pujitha shared, “‘Signal’ is a very special film for me. I am grateful to Malar ma’am for the opportunity. Santhosh, my co-star, is both highly talented and possesses a very positive attitude. Although I didn’t share any scenes with Bhavya, I have known her for a while. Imman sir’s music is pure magic. My thanks to the entire team.” Actor Santhosh said, “I thank Malar Ma’am for giving me an opportunity in this film. If we all represent the crown of this movie, then music director D. Imman Sir is the diamond set upon it. I am delighted to have danced to his music. It is in the film Signal that I have returned to dancing for a song in a movie after many years.”
“Women have made great strides across many fields today—they truly deserve the top spot. Despite the various obstacles that may arise, we have learned how to confront and overcome them. I am confident that Malarvizhi Ma’am will go on to achieve great heights. We certainly need all of your support for this film.”
Director Malarvizhi Natesan said, “This is my second film. I am a huge fan of the works of directors like Udhayakumar sir and Perarasu sir—many of whom are present here today. Having them here as special guests to wish me well is a dream come true. The fact that Dhananjayan sir enjoyed the film has given me a tremendous boost in confidence. I believe that music is vital to any film, and D. Imman sir’s music has been a massive strength for this project; he has contributed significantly to making this film turn out so well—my heartfelt thanks to him. I also want to thank Santhosh, Pujitha, Bhavya, and my entire technical team. We truly need all of your support for this film.”
Music Director D. Imman remarked, “Beyond just the story, I chose to work on this film specifically because it is helmed by a female director. It is a very positive development to see someone with an educational background enter the world of cinema as a director. Santhosh Prathap is sure to reach great heights, and the heroines have delivered beautiful performances. My thanks to all the guests who have come here to support the film. Please watch it and share your thoughts!”
