“I am emotionally glad to see many eminent personalities from the industry wishing the grand success of my upcoming film ‘Gentleman 2’. We started working on this project even before the Lockdown of Corona. Myself and director Senthamizhan scripted this project. Usually, I choose and form the team according to the script and its requirements. I have always ritually followed this agenda. If everyone is Gentleman, then there are no issues at all, and this story speaks about this topic with entertaining elements. When I gave the advance money to MM Keeravani and Vairamuthu, both of them, returned it back instantly. My guru GV has been my mentor in escalating my career, but he committed suicide unable to meet the challenges and pressures. Suicide isn’t the solution to all the problems. Everyone who have gathered here have come to see me succeed again.
I have made 4 films with AR Rahman and worked with Shankar in a couple of movies. I have distributed more than 100 movies, and later became producer. Hence, I know the recipe of a successful movie. We have to be very careful in making good movies, and ensure that audiences don’t incur loss. I have always followed the principle of encouraging young actors and technicians. Icons like A.R. Rahman, Shankar and Kathir were given opportunities in the same manner.
M.M. Keeravani has been the main reason behind kick-starting the project of ‘Gentleman 2’. When I approached him for this project, he gave a nod instantly, without even asking about who the hero, heroine and any details about this movie. He openly admitted that he is doing this project for the sake of Kunjumon sir. There is one particular song in this movie, which will grab the attention of the UNO, and I am ready to spend even 8Cr to picture it.”
Chetan Seenu is playing the lead role in this movie with Nayanthara Chakravarthy performing the female lead character. The others in the star cast include Sudha Rani, Priya Lal, Suman, Sri Ranjani, Sithara, Sathya Priya, Kaali Venkat, Munish Raj, Badava Gopi, Prem Kumar and many more prominent actors are playing important roles in this movie.
