Raghav, hero Gavin, actresses Aditi Bohankar and Preeti Mukundan, actor 'Raja Rani' Pandian, Thebes were present. Director Ilan said, 'This is a very emotional moment for me'. We all have a dream. I want to buy a house... I want to buy a car... I want to open a shop and do business... Everyone who travels towards that dream is a star. This is what this film says. We should not hurt anyone on that journey. With love.. without giving up on that dream... with a stubborn mind.. the journey will continue, won't it..! That is what this film is about. A boy in the 1980's.. He was about 20 years old. He comes to Chennai from Madurai with the dream of becoming a big actor. Eighty is 90. It is 2000. 2010 also passes. is passing. This journey continues for more than 35 years. Now he is 55 years old. At this age he got an opportunity to act in the film 'Raja Rani'. His long-held dream is coming true. Fans applaud his performance in theatre. He is my father 'Raja Rani' Pandiyan. I just want to dedicate this film to him. The inspiration for this film is my father. He had many experiences in his journey. He will face insults. Once my father asked me, 'How did you come to act with this face?' As someone asked, he sadly shared. That question was the biggest motivation for my father. Have you heard this directly to each other's face..! For the sole reason, he was determined to act somehow. This Star film is about describing that determination. We cannot always conquer a dream alone. It needs a lot of people to support it. We also need people to help. The blessings of others are more important than that. In the preview of this film, Gavin said, 'No money sir..!' As the dialogue will speak. It was a true incident in our father's life. During that time, our mother supported him and took care of him. He also took care of us. For us he is also a star. Basically there are many stars around us. This movie is made to remember them. Thus, I believe that 'Star' will be a beautiful film that everyone will visit and enjoy with their families, lovers, friends and relations. I gave a condition to the producer Sagar that after telling this story he should give me a reply within two days. He replied that he will make this film in one day. His quick decision at that moment still stands in my favor to this day. His snappy decision making at every moment also helps in making the film elegant. Apart from him, everyone who has taken responsibility for this film has done their work with full dedication and cooperation. Everyone has contributed wholeheartedly for the film. I would like to thank everyone at this moment for this. I see this movie as a beautiful love story. Love is a father's love... a mother's love... a friend's love... a wife's love... a girlfriend's love... there is so much love in this movie. I would like to take this moment to express my sincere gratitude to all the technicians, actors and actresses who worked in this film. Especially since Yuvan is currently in Dubai. Whatever I ask, he will do for me. Whatever he asks I will do for him. That's how friendly we are. He is a brother to me.. well-wisher.. friend.. spiritual guide.. I can go on and on about him. Yuvan is at the top of my list of favorite people in this world. I feel blessed to have met someone like him in my life. He is always kind, sweet and easy going. He was followed by Gavin. I met Kavin, who is a star, only after the film 'Tada'. While telling him the story of the film, after listening to the whole story, he said, 'Many of the incidents in this story have happened in my life too'. It is the story of the film that has chosen Gavin as the hero. Gavin keeps surprising us when he acts on the sets. As an actor, he continues to amaze not only me but the entire film crew with his exquisite performances. This is evidenced by the preview of the film. Thanks again to Gavin for this. The film has a small amount of unexpected surprises for the fans. I kindly request the fans who have seen the film not to share it with others.'' Producer Sagar said, "I was in touch with director Ilan before telling the story of 'Star'. Then he told me a story through video. The way he tells the story.. the way he prepares himself for it.. I liked all this. In this regard, I told the executive producer Vinoth to work with Ilan. Can you meet me after some time and make Star movie? asked. He narrated the entire story of this film. I really liked it. Who is the hero? I asked. He said he was Gavin. At that time, the film 'Tata' was released and became a success. While watching 'Tata', I felt happy that the Tamil film industry has got a promising actor. I agreed to produce the film when Ilanum told me that Gavin is the hero. As he said, he gave me two days time. He could sense pressure from other directions. Then I got faith in the story of this film. I also got faith in Ilan+Gavin combination. I saw this movie recently. He tells the story emotionally. This Star is a creation created by all the sects together with love. For this, I would like to express my gratitude to everyone at this moment," he said. Film host Pradeep E. Raghav said, “I have completed the preview of Love Today in a week. But I took twenty days to preview this film. I have read Ilan's screenplay completely. I have seen the film too. I was amazed by Gavin's amazing performance. I realized that I have more sense of responsibility while working with this alliance. I finished the preview in ten days. However, I did not believe in it. I called the boy and said, 'Give me another five or six days, I am not completely satisfied.' They are the reason I lost faith in myself. To that extent, all the aspects of the film like story, screenplay, acting were fine. After completing the preview of the film, one thing occurred to me. Even if you are an expert in the art of cooking, you can prepare good food only if you have good ingredients. Similarly, the reason behind the preview of this film is the content provided by them. I would like to thank director Ilan, actor Gavin and everyone else for this," he said. Actress Aditi Bohankar said, “Director Ilan is talented. He clearly mentions the verse...how to pronounce the verse...and how to act emotionally with it. I am playing the role of Surabi in this film. I come from stage play. I know that practice is important. The moments spent interacting with the film crew on the set are unforgettable. All the crew were friendly. Even though Gavin is a co-star..he's brilliant. Star will hit the theaters on May 10th. I request everyone to visit the theater and support us.'' Actress Preethi Mukundan said, "Today is a very special day for me. My first film is releasing. If someone had met me a year ago and said 'you will play the lead role in a quality film'...I wouldn't have believed it. But it is possible today. For this I would like to thank my parents, the director, the producers and the crew of Star Films for giving me the opportunity. I feel somewhat satisfied with the performance of this movie. I have become an actress under the guidance of director Ilan. Gavin's fan base will increase after the release of this film. He will become a big star. The positivity of the crew whenever I go to the sets... I was amazed. This is why images can be created consciously..! I have always counted. All the artists who have worked in this film have given their dedicated cooperation. So this movie is definitely going to be a big hit. '' said. The director's father and actor 'Raja Rani' Pandian said, "First greetings to stills Ravi who took me by the hand and brought me to the film industry. Ilan - He lifted me up according to Valluvar's words, 'The help a son gives to his father, his father kills innumerable'. Young would participate in pansy dress competitions at an early age. I will take him to that. Actress Nalini saw this and asked me, 'Do you fulfill all your wishes through your son? ' he asked sarcastically. When he assumed Veerashivaji's guise, he said his head ached. I want to hold his crown.. immediately, 'Will you come on stage and hold it?' He asked and asked to remove his hand. I had prepared him to that extent. He was also preparing himself. He directed a short film with me only after completing aeronautical engineering as I was committed to academics despite pursuing acting. I had stipulated that I should enter this field only after completing my studies. He accepted that too. Also, it can take four years to find a job after graduation. Will you give me rice during that time! he asked. I said let's put it. Think like that and give me rice for two years. He said I will pretend to be the director. But he became a director within a year. Why I am saying this is.. Parents should realize their children's desire and give them a chance. So I gave him an opportunity and he took it and became a director. If he denies this and imposes only my opinion.. his development will be affected. Everyone is coming towards cinema. Many people want to become an entrepreneur. Some people think of becoming a doctor, and many are on the journey towards that goal. But few reach. Only those who travel to the end without deviating from that goal reach it. I am happy that my son has succeeded as a director in this field. Stills Ravi's devotion to his profession is the reason why I am in this position today. He cares about every minute of business. Even after working as his assistant, I did not give up my desire to act. I have scolded him many times for this. Then I convinced him and continued to work with him. Even when I got the chance to act in 'Raja Rani', I faced many crises. But because it is a good character, I gave up everything and gave importance to acting in it. When you get paid for acting in this film.. the cashier is confident that you will be fine.! He said that. I attended the 100th day celebration of this film. It was Yuki Sethu, who had come to attend the function, who changed me from 'Banda' Pandi to 'Raja Rani' Pandiyan. I am thankful to Yuki Sethu for this. If we always think about the help someone has given us without forgetting to thank us, we will move forward. Thank you to all those who worked in this film and the producers who gave me the opportunity.'' Actor Gavin said, “Star after Tata. Director Ilan did not bring anything with him when it came to telling the story. Usually the directors who come to narrate the story have something like a laptop... online order... script book... in their hand. He patiently told the story in detail for three hours. It was only after listening to the story that I realized that he was telling the story from his heart. Life was inherent in the story he told. Didn't think much of anything. I immediately agreed to act. I think I have saved all the trust he had in the film... the trust he had after coming to me and telling me the story... The film's co-producer Deepak will be abroad. But he will coordinate the shooting tasks neatly from there. After listening to the story of this film, I realized that a lot of patience is required. Creation is also great. It takes a lot of work and time. I would like to take this moment to thank everyone for their understanding and patience. I acted in a film called 'Shatriyaan' with Vikram Prabhu. There was also a scene of my song in the music of Yuvan in that film. It was filmed. It was later removed from the film. It was my first film. Since the song scene was deleted in it.. there was pain in my heart. I explained about this when I met Yuvan in person. Usually they say for comfort... 'if it doesn't happen today, it will happen bigger tomorrow'... I had a misunderstanding about that. But I came to know that all those words are true in this film. With Yuvan Shankar Raja Music, my wish and dream has come true. Yuvan has worked well for this film. You may have already seen it in the preview and enjoyed it. I think you can see his hard work while watching the film. As soon as Eshil Govt said the cinematography.. I got full confidence. Because he is the cinematographer for the film 'Tada'. The story of the film will be realistic. Fight training director Vicky Master has worked hard to make even the smallest fight scenes look realistic. Dance master to me is fear. I believe in acting...not dancing. I will see a lot of rehearsals. The three dance masters patiently taught and made me dance in this film. Both Lal and Geetha Kailasam's scenes are lively. Their performance will be more realistic and beautiful to experience. I hope it reflects well on the fans as well. Thanks also to fellow actresses Preethi and Aditi who acted in the film. Thanks to all the co-stars. I am sure that everyone who acted in this film will go to the next level in the film industry. Thanks to fans and people. Because if there is good content you will give immense support to that film. Many films including 'Tata' can be cited as examples of this. I would like to share only one small thing to pass all this. It is generally said that 'If you make a movie based on the movie, it will not be successful'. I don't know how true this is. If the film is good, it will run. has run But it is not known how such a thing develops. I think it might be based on overall percentage. The same happened with this film. Some told this story before going to producer Sagar. Until then I was very confident. Producer Srinidhi Sagar also heard the story and said something like this..! I was afraid. But when he agreed to make this film in one day, my fear disappeared and my confidence increased. The producer has faith in the film team that sees art as art.. and loves it very much. I think that belief is what has brought this film this far. I believe that his faith in this creation will bring success through all those things. There is also a lot of faith in the fans. My guru has taught me that I should work fairly for the investment of the producers and the investment of the fans. For this, the entire film team has worked with confidence. This movie released and ran well.. This movie will be included in the list of movies about cinema. I sincerely believe this. '' said.
