LIST OF WINNERS FOR BGM 2018

Presenter: Tovino Thomas

Winner: Vivek

Speech: "I always wanted to write a song like this for a long time. People in TamilNadu are experiencing a lot of issues right now. At such a moment, it's a honor to receive this award. I would like to thank AR Rahman sir for this moment. The lyric spoke proudly about our graceful language and our culture. Vijay sir was the best thing that could happen to Aalaporan Thamizhan.

I have so much of love and respect for Vijay sir. Someone as down to earth as him, I was highly proud to write this song for Vijay sir. Every line in this song is definitely true and apt to his character itself. Director Atlee is the big reason for this award and without him I wouldn't be standing here as proud as I am right now. This song expresses a lot of emotions and the mind set of every tamilian."
