"Rajni
sir
loved
the
film
and
called
Vijay
sir,
personally
congratulating
him
to
pull
off
such
a
difficult
film.
He
said
it's
a
very
tough
film
to
make
given
the
representation
of
such
eminent
personalities
like
MGR
and
Jayalalithaa,
who
have
been
public
figures
in
both
their,
cinematic
as
well
as

journeys
and
yet,
it
was
beautifully
handled."
