He is a big fan of Kamal.
Very good actor. Though we talk about Kamal's stellar performance in PN climax, in Drishyam this guy stole the show from MohanLal.
Will be great to watch these two together.
Movie is going to rock.

Curious to know the genre of music IR-KH are going to handle / come up with!
Any 'insider' news on the music part?
Any opinions about the title?
I am seriously considering giving this movie a miss.
IMHO, it is the content that gives value to a title and not the other way around... a case in point, i found moscowin kaavery as a very poetic and charming title, till i learnt that heros name is moscow and heroine name is kaavery
I agree that the value of the movie/content is not given or fully reflected by the title. This might turn out to be a great movie, who knows! (To some extent, who cares! I have been a Kamal fan from my childhood!)
However, my complaint is that Kamal has not learnt, or rather refuses to learn the lessons from Thevar Magan days.
Why identify a character with the name of its caste? I agree Telugu people still use caste names as surname. But, why use it in title of a Tamil movie, making it more mainstream here?
I agree this sounds like a mere tokenism, while castes and caste issues run still very deep in social and political realms of TN. For that very reason, this tokenism is required, I feel. Why forfeit however little ground gained?
calling by caste is certainly not a taboo, in fact it is a kind of respect mostly (for most of the people, for few it could be an abuse depending on who and how, that is a different argument)... that too for Telugu ppl as you yourself agreed, where ppl are addressed mostly by their surnames only Mr.Rao, Mr.Reddy etc., i dont think this will sound as appeasement or offensive
//calling by caste is certainly not a taboo, in fact it is a kind of respect mostly//
How do you say mostly? Is it based on the population percentage?
// that is a different argument//
That is the whole argument, based on which, people in TN shunned using caste name as surname.
//appeasement or offensive//
It is regressive.
looks the title controversy started
There was a movie in the name of Gandhi, anybody has objected to that title?
