In a recent interaction with his fans, STR sounded pretty pleased about the response that his latest release, Podaa Podi, has been getting. In fact the film has exceeded his expectations it seems.
He again maintained the stance that he didn’t intend to compete with Vijay’s Thuppakki and just released his film as a Diwali special because a festival generally sees around four to five films releasing.
Podaa Podi was deliberately released with less publicity and promotions in stark comparison to the big scale, grand marketing and hype for Thuppakki. He again asked his fans to not compare the two Diwali releases.
