Director Vijay says that Madaraspatinam
is not a film about freedom struggle.
He clarified this recently as there
were reports that Madaraspatinam
could be film Indian Independence
struggle. It may be recalled that
this is a period film based in 1940s.
The director said that this is romantic
flick and is totally different from
his earlier ventures Kireedom and
Poi Solla Porom. Vijay said that
Arya has done a great work in the
film and has also learnt the traditional
“Kusthi” fight.
A set, worth Rs. 70 lakhs, has been
constructed in Kelambakkam to depict
the Chennai of the 1940s. The director
added that people of that generation
will definitely turn nostalgic and
appreciate the effort.
