At a recent press conference, GV Prakash said, “Right from my childhood I have grown up by seeing the movies of legend Vadivelu sir. His body language and mannerisms are a treat to watch. As soon as director Ram Bala narrated the script, myself and producer Stephen felt that only Vadivelu sir could do justice to this role. We are indeed fortunate to work with this legendary actor. The Tornando from Madurai is back, so get yourselves ready for a laughter riot.” The film is being bankrolled by Stephen under the banner ‘Steeve’s Corner’.
