The shooting of the film could not take place in Madurai when the PT party members tried to create problems. The PT leader feared the film would incite violence in the southern districts once again, and would restart arivaal (sickle) culture.
Sandiyar, Kamal Haasan's new film under his own banner Rajkamal Productions, which started with a lot of fanfare ran into rough weather when the Puthiya Thamizhagam leader Dr Krishnaswamy objected to the title of the film. I do not want any gap between my second and third films!"
"I am getting a lot of offers and I do not want to miss any of them. He does not want to have such a long sabbatical again. It took a long time for Gautam Menon to make his second film even though Minnale was a big hit. I am happy the great initial we have had has not dropped even after five days." I must say the music by Harris Jayaraj has helped us a lot. Perhaps the look of the film could be the reason for such a tremendous opening. I expected the city audience to accept the film but, honestly, it shocked us to see the response in the interiors. Gautam Menon's first film Minnalae was instrumental in cementing Madhavan's position as a successful commercial star.Ī happy, 'shocked' Gautam Menon said, "We did not expect this kind of an initial. Surya, who gives a sterling performance as Anbuselvan, an Assistant Commissioner of Police, is expected to join the league of Ajit, Madhavan and Vijay with this film. Not even the director expected such an opening for KK, about an encounter specialist police officer. Gautam Menon's second film Kaakka Kaakka - his first was Minnalae - has had a fantastic opening not only in the urban centres but in the interiors of Tamil Nadu too.
