''Madras, an important political film after Parasakthi''

Oct 01, 2014

After the tremendous critical feedback and encouraging response from the audience in theaters for Madras, director Ranjith must obviously feel delighted. We got in touch with the 'man of the moment' to know more.

"I saw the movie again in Albert theater in Chennai on Sunday, after hearing some feedback that the 2nd half wasn't as gripping as the 1st. But the response in the 2nd half was riveting and at the end of the show, I was totally crowded by excited fans.

We have been doing theater rounds all over Chennai and there is some great feedback from the audience. The media's appreciation has also been of great help.

After the unfortunate cancellation of shows on Saturday, all shows on Sunday were full and Monday morning, noon shows were also good. All sections of the audience are enjoying Madras just like a wholesome commercial movie such as VIP.

And director Karu Pazhaniappan appreciated me saying that Madras is a very important political film after Parasakthi"

Ranjith also seems unperturbed with the slew of new releases every week and confidently says "A good film will run despite competition"
