“The investment we made in the film is evident, which is crucial. As a producer, Rajini sir could easily recognize and appreciate this aspect. He mentioned, ‘You all have invested so much in the film, and I can see that.’ His compliment was heartfelt and genuine, not merely a tweet praising the trailer without substance. It came after he had watched it,” Mohanlal added.
