Produced by Karthik Subbaraj’s Stone Bench, the film ‘Perusu’, directed by Ilango Ram and starring Vaibhav, Sunil, Bala Saravanan, Reddy Kingsley, Niharika and others, will be released in theaters on March 14. Its trailer launch was held today.
Producer Karthikeyan Santhanam said, “‘Perusu’ is the film that came when we were waiting to see what we could do even bigger after ‘Jigardanda Double X’. Thanks to Ilango for that. This is the 16th film of Stone Bench Productions. When it comes to adult films, films in India target certain things. But in Western countries, they take it in an interesting and non-offensive way. We have broken these things down and brought them to life in the film ‘Perusu’. We have given a new angle to the subject of adult. Thanks to Ilango and the team for making this possible. Baweja Studios has also produced this film with us. We need your support.”
Writer Balaji said, “This is my first film as a writer in films. I have written in web series before. Even though it is an adult comedy, we have carefully written the story so that no one who watches it should frown. I am sure you all will like it.”
Actress Dhanalakshmi, “Congratulations to everyone who worked with me in the film. Thank you to the director and producer for giving me the opportunity. This film is a big opportunity for me. Many people would have seen me through ‘Nakkalites.’ So far, many people have seen me in a comedy role. But, I have also grown as a character artist in this. Death is inevitable for everyone. This film has told that reality.”
Actor Swaminathan, “Just as director Sundar. C makes the film fun, Elango will also enjoy and enjoy every scene. Vaibhav, Munishkanth, Kingxy, Balasekaran, Dhanalakshmi, Sunil, everyone has naturally woven together in their excellent performances. This is a film that should be watched with family fun.”
Actor Gajaraj, “Thank you to the producer and director Ram for giving me the opportunity, believing that I would get a comedy. My son has also said that I have acted well. People should watch it and tell me. I pray that the film becomes a huge success.”Actor Karunakaran said, “For the first time, the director did not tell me a story. Others like the producer and actor Vaibhav told the story. It has come out as a wonderful film. Thanalaxmi Amma, Swaminathan sir, Sunil, Kingsley have acted well. Crazy Mohan’s touch will be in the film. I am happy to have acted in a fun comedy film.”
Actor Munishkanth said, “Thank you to everyone, the director, producer and the film crew. I had asked Karthik Subbaraj sir for an appointment. He was the one who gave me a chance in this film in which Vaibhav sir played the hero. Even though it is called an adult film, there is no reason in the story for that. It has come out as a good film.”
Actor Kingsley said, “Thank you to the director and producer who gave me a chance in this film. Everyone has acted superbly. Karunakaran will perform well without missing a beat. Thank you also to Karthik Subbaraj’s father. Both Dhanalakshmi Akka and Deepa Akka are great strengths of the film. Chandini and Niharika have all given super performances. Thank you”.
Actor Bala Saravanan, “When I heard the story of this film, I thought a lot about how they were going to film it. The director has filmed the adult comedy in a way that everyone can watch without making a face. This film will be an important film in my career. I also thank Karthik Subbaraj sir for giving me the opportunity. This film will be an unforgettable experience in all of our lives. Karthik Subbaraj gave everyone freedom. ‘Perusu’ will speak with a smile”.
Actress Chandini, “This year has been a big one for me. My third film is being released. Honestly, such a story has never come before. It is surprising how the director thought of such a story. We had fun working on this film. The main reason for that is the actors. They bought us food throughout the shooting. All the actors sat and ate together. Dhanalakshmi mam has acted on another level. Come and see what is great in the film on March 14 in the theaters. This film is definitely a family film,” he said.
Actress Niharika said, “First of all, I thank Balaji sir. He was the one who told me this story. I am proud to have worked with Karthik Subbaraj sir. I am happy that I have acted with actors I grew up watching since my school and college days.”Distributor Sakthivelan said, “This year will start positively for Stone Bench with the film ‘Perusu’. ‘Perusu’ will definitely be a big hit. Stone Bench is a very passionate and capable person who wants to make films. They want to bring good cinema to the audience. It was a great pleasure to work with them. There will be a big twist in the beginning of ‘Perusu’. I was shocked by that. The story of the film will not make you turn your head at any point. Dhanalakshmi Amma is like another Manoramma for us. She and Deepaka are a perfect combination. All the actors have competed and acted. It will be a huge hit.”
Director Ilango Ram said, “Producers with good banners are important to bring the film to a good place. Thanks to Karthik Subbaraj sir for that. I like films from the eighties like ‘Aanpaavam’ and ‘Indu Poi Naali Vaa’. Similarly, this film will be a fun one to watch with the family. Vaibhav-Sunil were perfect for this story. Thanam, Swaminathan, Gajaraj, Deepa, everyone has acted superbly. You can watch this film with your family. You will not be disappointed anywhere. I have got a good team.”
Actor Vaibhav, “It has come as a superb story to watch with your family. You will understand it when you watch it in the theater on March 14. Thanam Amma is intertwined in her acting. Gajaraj, Reddin, Munishkanth have all acted well. The shooting of the film went very well. Like you, I am also eager to watch the film. My brother has also acted together for the first time. Thank you.”
Director Karthik Subbaraj, “Ram sir and I often talk to each other. If he comes up with good films, he tells me. That is how we were going to present the film ‘Koozhangal’. For some reason, it was missed. Then this ‘Perusu’ is the film that Ram sir told me about. It is difficult to make others laugh. Balaji has done a great job. The important thing about the story is the actors. I was the one who said that it would be good if Vaibhav and his brother acted together. I recently watched the film. I liked it a lot. Those above the age of 18 can definitely watch it with their families. There is emotion in the story along with comedy. Dhanalakshmi mam acted superbly. Swaminathan, Appa, Karuna, Kingsley, Munishkanth, Chandni, Niharika, Sunil all acted well. This is a well-written story. We need your support,” he said.
