The team behind the successful film PT Sir, starring Hiphop Tamizha Adhi and produced by Dr. Ishari K Ganesh of Vels Film International, gathered for a success meet to express their gratitude to the press, media, and film enthusiasts for the film’s positive reception.
Veteran actor and director K. Bhagyaraj commended the film’s strong narrative and the performances of the actors. “Karthik Venugopalan has created a wonderful script with an engaging screenplay and strong characters,” Bhagyaraj stated. “It’s great to see actors Ilavarasu, Munishkanth, and everyone else delivering stellar performances. Adhi has exhibited his acting prowess in this film. These days, film successes have become a rarity. It’s heartwarming to see that PT Sir has garnered a soulful response from critics and audiences. I am happy to be a part of such a commendable project.”
Producer Dr. Ishari K Ganesh expressed his satisfaction with the film’s box office performance and its positive reception from the press and media. “As Bhagyaraj sir said, it’s not easy for a film to complete a successful 50-day theatrical run,” Ganesh acknowledged. “Technological advancements, including the early release of films on OTT platforms, have impacted theatrical runs. As a producer, I am delighted that PT Sir has collected an impressive box office figure of approximately Rs. 12.5 crore and is still running successfully in 150 theaters. It is heartwarming to see the press and media applauding this movie.”
He acknowledged the contributions of the entire team, stating, “It was Hiphop Adhi who brought me this project, and he is the main pillar in escalating the film’s success. K. Bhagyaraj sir added a Midas touch to this small film with his magnetic performance. Ilavarasu sir started inspiring me on the set as an actor. I learned a lot from him. I thank the entire cast and crew for their immense support.”
Adhi, reflecting on the film’s impact, shared, “More than basking in the glory of the film’s grand success, all of us are emotionally overwhelmed with the way the film has created a huge impact on society. More than being a good producer, Ishari sir is a good human being. K. Bhagyaraj sir added the Midas touch to this small film with his magnetic performance. Ilavarasu sir started inspiring me on set as an actor. I learned a lot from him.”
Director Karthik Venugopalan addressed the social issues explored in the film, stating, “We wanted to convey something beyond the routine harassment of women. We wanted to showcase the pain of victimized women who are burdened by society. It has given them more pain than the harassment itself. Adhi and I have received many messages from women who appreciated us boldly focusing on this issue. It gives us immense joy to gain such a response.”
