00:00And Major's life, that's the reason behind this film.
00:06We trained him, otherwise he wouldn't have gone with us for the shoot.
00:11The only question I had was, how is Indhu's character going to be in the film?
00:17The film is over, now it's in your hands.
00:30Amaran's team is here with us. Welcome, welcome, welcome.
00:42Usually you do a very entertaining role, but this time you've done a tough role.
00:50What made you say, yes, we can do this?
00:53This is a real story, a real incident.
00:55The truth, the truth, the story, and the way Rajkumar Periyasamy narrated the story in three parts.
01:05And Major's life, that's the reason behind this film.
01:12Major Mugundhwaradarajan.
01:13We learnt everything from the basic preparations to handling the real gun.
01:20We trained him, otherwise he wouldn't have gone with us for the shoot.
01:24So the director trained us mentally and physically from the feedback on the character.
01:36Because it's a film like that, how the war is approached, how the stunts are approached, we learnt all that.
01:42The entire process was tough, but there was a lot of learning.
01:46I believe that this film will help us in all the other films as well.
01:52They wanted us to understand what we were going to do and whose character we were going to portray.
01:59So we met Indhura Begavarghese ma'am, her family, and spoke to her.
02:05We met her daughter, Major's wife, and spoke to her.
02:11So we met them first.
02:13Then we met her senior, Kannil Dabasar in Mumbai.
02:17So the input that they give, it won't be a dialogue in the film.
02:21But what they think about them, it was helpful for us to understand what kind of a character that character is.
02:28In this film, you are portraying the character of Mugundhwaradarajan's wife.
02:32I think it's a bold character.
02:34I think it would have been a very correct character.
02:37What kind of prep did you have to do?
02:41How did your workshops go?
02:44Firstly, the director told me that I don't have to do any prep for this film.
02:49Because you don't have to be extra sensitive.
02:54Because I had met her.
02:55I think I met her about 6 months before the shoot.
03:00I was starting to feel very conscious.
03:02Because I had never done a biopic before.
03:05I was thinking if I should imitate a real life character.
03:10So the first instruction I gave her was, you don't have to do it the way they do it.
03:15You'll have to own it up and do it your way.
03:16So that's what I tried.
03:18I've been very true to the emotions.
03:20And I was worried if I would be able to do it in this film.
03:23But that was my first question.
03:26How is Indhu's character going to be in the film?
03:28Because it's another biopic.
03:30And then I'm happy that he's standing by Indhu's character.
03:35For the first time, Sivakarthi and Saipallavi are acting together.
03:40How was it?
03:41For us, 60% of the scenes were like the long distance relationship we had in the film.
03:50Rajkumar Periyasamy is the director of the Prabhu Deva show.
03:54That's where I had participated.
03:57That's where she participated.
03:59He directed an event in Coimbatore.
04:02I hosted it and she performed in it.
04:05So we have a journey like that.
04:08So we all came from the same channel and worked on this film.
04:12And working with them...
04:14From the beginning, I thought we were going to work with an amazing performer.
04:18I thought it would be a good opportunity to see how they approach a scene.
04:22I didn't know how to explain it.
04:26In the way I understood it, it was a good learning experience for me.
04:30To see how they approach the scene.
04:33Because you've acted amazingly in all your films.
04:36He's being very kind.
04:39Sivy, how is your music in this film? How many songs?
04:44I think there are 4-5 songs.
04:47I've re-recorded 2 songs and composed them.
04:50It's musical. How do I say this?
04:53Because it's a biopic and an action film...
04:56The music is in a serious zone.
04:59The score is in a Hollywood zone.
05:02It's a very serious, fiery, orchestrated score.
05:08Because it's an intense film.
05:11It has an intense mood.
05:13So you can feel the intensity of the music from the first frame to the last.
05:19That's how the score is built in the film.
05:22I've tried to convey a breezy, nostalgic, classic love.
05:30I'm working with all of them for the first time.
05:33It's my first time with Shiva and Rajkumar.
05:37It'll be something special, I think.
05:40What stage are you at now?
05:43Are you done with post-production?
05:46I'm done with shooting and editing.
05:50The film is in G. V. Prakash's studio.
05:53He's done with the first half of the re-recording.
05:56He's done with the interval.
05:58He's just started the second half and is in Malaysia now.
06:01He'll start that work again.
06:03When all the films are done, the hero says...
06:08The film is done. It's in your hands now.
06:12It's a big burden.
06:14It's like he's giving it to you.
06:16They've been talking for three days.
06:18You were asking Sivakarthikeyan and Sai Pallavi...
06:25Why did they come into this?
06:28Anyone could have acted as a hero or an actress.
06:33Major Mukund Varadarajan and Indhu Rebecca Varghese are the lead characters.
06:40They didn't have a close relationship.
06:49Sivakarthikeyan is a hero with a star value.
06:55At the same time, he'll have a common man's representation.
07:03That was very helpful for the character.
07:08When I narrated for the first time, the screenplay was really good.
07:13Kamal sir selected the script.
07:17Everyone liked the story and we came into the film.
07:25When I brought him in as a music composer...
07:28This film has to connect with us.
07:33At the same time, the making and execution of the film is in a new space.
07:38The genre itself is new to Tamil films.
07:41There have been military films before.
07:43But it's a genre that matches the films we see in international cinemas.
07:56To justify that, you need a composer like G.V. Prakash sir.
08:01That's why we're doing a re-recording.
08:03He's going to add a new meaning to the film.
08:07He's going to enhance that meaning.
08:11He has to create that balance.
08:13He's doing it very well.
08:15Everyone will realize it once it's done.
08:17He's trying to blend the war zone and the romance zone.
