Kamal Haasan ask Ilaiyaraaja director to work according to his research

According to Times Of India, Kamal Haasan addressed the audience and talked about the movie. During his address, he asked Arun Matheswaran to stick to his research and make the film. He said, “Once again to the director, do this film with what feels true to you according to your research and vision. Don’t succumb to any kind of pressure. Because this is not only a film about the ‘Isai Gnyani’ Ilaiyaraaja but also about the Bharatratna Ilaiyaraaja. This is a demand from all of us.”

As per India Today, Kamal Haasan also threw light on his bond with Ilaiyaraaja. He said, “I don’t know where to begin about Ilaiyaraaja. My relationship started as a fan, then became a brother and now we are equals. I become happy whenever he achieves anything and it’s same for me as well. Everyone thinks ‘Kanmani Anbodu’ is a love song for Guna and Abirami. But, no, it was a song for us.”

Ilaiyaraaja’s release date has not been revealed yet.
