Dwelling further, Raveendran says, “It is an entertaining movie but would be thought-provoking. The valour and intelligence of our forefathers for the crux. We shot the movie in an extravagant manner.”
Made at a cost of Rs 31 crore, everything is grand about the movie. The climax was shot with over several thousand junior artistes. “The film demanded state-of-the-art graphic works. It took for several months to complete it. The end product is nothing but amazing”, he says.
