The
music
and
lyrics
launch
of
the
film,
composed
by
Sean
Roldan,
was
held
recently
at
Chennai
Sathyam
Theatre.
Actor
Sivakarthikeyan
participated
as
a
special
guest.
Director
AR
Murugadoss
speaking
on
the
occasion
said,
"Please
give
this
film
the
love
and
support
you
have
given
me
for
so
long.
With
Siva's
arrival
today,
the
show
has
become
even
more
polished.
My
assistant
director
Balaji
read
the
story
of
this
film
and
told
me
to
read
it.
Then
I
decided
to
do
it.
Gautham
Karthik
has
given
an
amazing
performance.
You
can't
create
a
romance
scene
without
thinking
of
Karthik
sir.
Even
a
scene
where
Jayaram
sir
appears
in
'Thuppaki'
was
created
keeping
Karthik
sir
in
mind.
Gautam
sir
also
has
a
bright
future.
Revathi
has
acted
well.
A
lot
of
acting
opportunities
will
come
after
this
film.
The
film
is
not
only
releasing
in
Tamil
but
also
in
Telugu,
Hindi
and
Pan
India.
So,
in
today's
time
everyone
should
come
for
promotion.
Many
people
have
helped
me.
So,
I
also
helping
many
people.
I
have
seen
this
movie.
It
has
come
well.
Santhanam
sir's
absence
is
a
great
loss
for
us.
Man
of
the
Festival
Sean
Roldan
gave
excellent
music.
All
three
songs
are
beautiful.
We
put
him
through
a
lot
of
trouble
for
the
background
music.
His
work
has
given
life
to
the
film.
I
made
it
because
Ponkumar's
story
was
good.
I
didn't
give
him
the
film
because
he
is
good,
I
gave
him
a
chance
because
he
is
talented.
If
someone
is
good,
you
can
get
a
meal,
but
you
can't
get
a
movie.
Only
if
you
are
talented
you
will
get
film
opportunity.
This
story
of
Ponkumar
was
amazing.
He
has
also
directed
the
film
very
well.
So
I
request
everyone
to
cooperate
with
this
film."
Actor
Sivakarthikeyan
said,
"First,
let
me
tell
you
about
the
film.
When
it
comes
to
India's
freedom,
every
individual
has
an
unspeakable
pain.
When
such
a
country
is
enslaved,
the
pain
cannot
be
expressed
in
words.
It
has
been
filmed
by
Ponkumar
with
hard
work.
When
the
first
film
is
a
period
film,
your
faith
in
it
is
evident.
Ponkumar
deserves
it.
There
is
also
a
desire
to
see
the
film
and
know
the
story.
Greetings
to
all.
There
can
be
no
one
who
doesn't
like
Sean
Roldan's
music.
Congratulations
to
Revathi
too.
It
was
clear
from
the
trailer
that
Prema
has
played
a
good
role."
