Short filmTranscript
00:00Sir, you already asked five questions, sir.
00:02One question and I didn't put a question to you.
00:04Okay, sir.
00:05The most handsome director turned actor, actor turned director.
00:10No, no, no. There are many handsome people. What are you saying?
00:13But, you see, your directorial activity, to what extent it is influencing your acting career?
00:18You love to continue much as an actor or as a director?
00:22I love both, sir. If I keep directing, I'll not be able to pay my EMIs.
00:27So, in between I'll have to act also.
00:29Prithviraj sir, Prithviraj sir, here, Prithviraj sir.
00:32Left, left.
00:33Yes, yes.
00:34What is the concept behind Empuron title design with two red letters?
00:37Some secrets we can't…
00:39Prithviraj, hi.
00:42I can't tell you.
00:44Like George Gutti in Trishyam, some secrets can never be told.
00:48Prithviraj, Prithviraj.
00:50Last two questions.
00:51Yes, yes.
00:52So, first of all, I have to appreciate you for giving the title credit for Murali Gopi.
00:57Yes.
00:58Which is equivalent to the director.
00:59We don't see that on a regular basis.
01:01No, I mean, he is the reason this project happened.
01:03Yeah.
01:04That's why we don't see that regular, particularly on the promotional content.
01:07Yeah.
01:08And coming to the sequel.
01:09So, sequels are obviously having a good reach because of the earlier films.
01:14Because we have seen with Bahubali, KJR, Frank Pushpa.
01:17So, what kind of penetration ratio are you looking at L2 will reach?
01:20So, I am again telling you, as a project, you know, if you are talking about numbers
01:25and if you are putting out an excel sheet, this film does not make any sense.
01:30Because we really don't have a precedent.
01:32Like, okay, if I had told my producer, eventually when we open bookings for Empuran,
01:38this much will happen, maybe that time, oh, okay, we would have, we, nobody knew.
01:41We didn't know that this was going to happen.
01:43We were hoping the film would be a success.
01:45But what is happening now in advance bookings and all, we never knew would happen.
01:48So, we just, Mohanlal sir, Antony Perumbavur, myself and thankfully now,
01:54my dear friend, Mr. Gokulam Gopalan sir and Gokulam Movies,
01:58they have given me the confidence to say, you go all out.
02:03Let's dream like really big and you go all out.
02:06And we have gone all out and we are trusting you, sir.
02:08We are trusting the audience.
02:09We have just placed all our expectation upon you now.
02:13If you, like, give us that confidence, I promise you I will dream even bigger.
02:19Yeah, I mean, this is just the beginning.
02:21Next, Sujith Vasudevan.
02:24I wanted to ask.
02:25Sujith, Sujith.
02:26Yeah.
02:27Sujith.
02:28Yeah.
02:29Vasudevan sir.
02:30Yeah.
02:31So, in the trailer, we see a lot of wide angle shots, which are very rare for a commercial cinema.
02:36We hardly see any wide angle shots for commercial.
02:38So, what kind of camera and the technicalities are used for Empuran?
02:41And why so many or too many wide angle shots?
02:44Actually, in commercial…
02:45Some of the shots you saw, you shot on an iPhone.
02:47Yeah.
02:48Some shots are on an iPhone, actually, that you saw.
02:51Yeah.
02:52We used many cameras.
02:54Alexa, Red, GoPro, iPhone, etc.
02:57Sony FX3.
02:58Yeah, Sony FX3.
02:59Blackmagic.
03:00And…
03:01Prithvi sir.
03:02Prithvi sir.
03:03Prithvi sir.
03:04Prithvi sir.
03:05Prithvi sir.
03:06Sir, this side, left side, sir.
03:07Left side, sir.
03:08Prithvi sir.
03:09Okay, one question.
03:10Okay.
03:11In the foreground, we see a symbol, Illuminati.
03:16What is its use?
03:19I won't tell.
03:22Prithvi sir.
03:23Yeah.
03:24Mr. Mudra sir.
03:25Sir, sir, Mr. Mudra sir.
03:26This sir.
03:27Sir.
03:28Yes, yes.
03:29Yes, yes.
03:30My name is Ashwant, the Delicator Channel, sir.
03:31Sorry, sorry.
03:32Delicator Channel, Ashwant, my name is.
03:33Okay.
03:35One entry scene is a real-life incident from Poet's Garden, Rajnikanth's story.
03:39I mean, Jayalalitha issue.
03:40Poet's Garden entry scene.
03:41Influenced real-life incident to take into the scene.
03:43I have read about it somewhere.
03:45Yes.
03:46So, I got inspired.
03:47I don't know if it is true.
03:48I told in Tamil Channel also, I don't know if it is true.
03:51But that story I have heard and…
03:52No, he hasn't finished.
03:53I have heard the story and I have got inspired.
03:55That's all.
03:56So, any real-life incidents inspired from part two also?
03:59I can't tell you now, no.
04:01You watch the film.
04:02Thank you, thank you so much.
04:03Thank you, thank you so much.
04:04You are running out of time.
04:05And also very, very…
04:06I have to take this time off since I am in Hyderabad.
04:08Very, very happy Ugadi on the 30th of March.
04:10I hope it is a double celebration with Empuran and Ugadi on 30th.
04:15Thank you so much.
04:17Thank you very much.
04:18Executive producer Krishnamoorthy Karni and…
