Director Arivazhakan Murugesan shared about the film…
This is a very interesting film that tells the true story of a man who was a bonded labourer for 50 years in Pattukottai taluka of Thanjavur district before the 1990s and how he fought alone to get a generation educated, and how the contemporary social media has impacted the present generation, directly and indirectly, including politics is the crux of the plot. Also, he has also deliberated on the culture and history of the people of Thanjavur in a manner that no one else has told, and in a way that the people of the rice field will be proud of.
The film team says that the film has been scripted and shot in a lively way that will appeal to people of all ages.
The film team also says that since the film takes place in two different contrasting periodsand hence many actors had to change their appearance and hence it was shot for two and a half years. The film team has confirmed that the film will be released in theaters across Tamil Nadu in October 2025.
