Music composer Ajneesh Loknath, speaking first at the event, said…

I am a big fan of Vijay Sethupathi sir. I am proud to be composing music for his fiftieth film. Nitilan has done amazing work in ‘Kurangu Pomay’ itself. This film has also turned out well. There are two melody songs in the film. Congratulations to all.”

Cinematographer Dinesh Purushothaman said…

The story of the film has come out beautifully. Thanks to Vijay Sethupathi sir for tolerating all the tortures I went through. I learned a lot from working with great technicians like Natti sir Anurag Kashyap sir. ‘Maharaja’ will be an important film for Tamil cinema.”

Editor Philomin Raj said…

This is a very special film for me. It’s my first film with Sethu Anna. I love the story told by Nitilan. This film will be more special as another version of ‘Kurungu Tommy’.

Actor Natti said…

Maharaja’ will be a landmark film in Tamil cinema. The screenplay of this film will set a precedent for future films. This is my first film with Vijay Sethupathi. The crew did a great job. Nitilan will become a big man to direct a pan India film in a few years”.

Actress Abhirami said…

I am happy to be a part of this film. This is my first film with Vijay Sethupathi. If the most intense eyes in Tamil cinema are Kamal Charu’s then I would say Vijay Sethupathi’s. I know this film is a revenge story. Otherwise I don’t know the whole story.”

“Only my scenes are known. Like you, I am excited to see the film with the utmost faith in it.”

Actress Mamta Mohandas said…

I have only acted in a few films in Tamil. Now I am happy to act in a special film! If the story is good, I will watch that film regardless of which language or which hero. I have seen many films of Vijay Sethupathi sir. As Abirami said, there is magic in your eyes. It is. It is definitely a revenge story. I have not seen the film in full between Anurag and Vijay Sethupathi sir. But those who have seen it have given great reviews. ‘Maharaja’ is definitely going to be an important film in Tamil cinema,” he said.

Producer S.R. Prabhu said…

It is not normal for a hero to act in 50 films. When it is like that, 30 new directors and 20 new producers come in. Vijay Sethupathi has done such a great thing. Nithilan has made this film in a very short time. Congratulations to the filmmakers.”

Seven Screen Studios producer Lalith said…

The producers may have some problems in ’96’. But I think Vijay Sethupathi did not get paid for that film. Next is ‘Tughlaq Darbar’. I asked him for a date and when the film started Lokesh Vijay for the villain role in ‘Master’. He had asked Sethupathi. When I asked him, he said he didn’t have a date and he told me that if I change the date for ‘Tughlaq Durbar’, I can act in that film. Accordingly, he completed this film better. Pic.Editor Phillomin Raj’s fan I watched the first off of ‘Leo’ and called Lokesh Kanagaraju to appreciate his work. All the best!” said.

Karthikeyan Santhanam, producer of Stone Bench, said…

I know Vijaysethupathi from the days of short films. We have a good friendship. Every success of his film makes me happy. His 50th film is no ordinary thing. Happy to be a part of this journey. Congratulations!”

Director Nitilan said…

Thanks to my team for believing in this story and working hard. Thanks to Abhirami ma’am, Mamta ma’am, Anurag Kashyap sir who agreed to act in the film. Vijay Sethupathi Annan is not only a great actor but also a great person. It’s a great thing that he gave me a chance in his fiftieth film. .I will definitely make this a film that will give three times the profit to the producers.”

Actor Vijay Sethupathi said…

I would like to express my gratitude to the fans and the media who have brought me to this height by praising and congratulating me.

Patience and experience will take a man to the next level.

Thanks to my directors and fans for giving me such a wonderful experience!

This film has come as you like it.

The fiftieth film is definitely my cinema. A milestone in the journey. It has given me wisdom and experience.

Arul Das Annan has been the highlight of my film career.

Seeing him brings back old memories.

Watching Natti sir, he had the same speed and gravitas as Rajini sir. Philomin, Dinesh, Abhirami, Mamata all did their job. They have done well.

Nithilan was not arrogant when he said that he will take the money of the producers, he has faith in the film. That is how good the film has come out. I saw one of his recent interviews with Boyz Manikandan.

He spoke with such confidence like a modern preacher. He has a lot more height to reach. I was to act in Anurag sir’s production. But, due to some reasons, it did not happen. But the work he has done for this film is huge. He said that he and I would like to work on many more films.
