Udayakumar, Secretary Perarasu, Vice President R. Aravindaraj, Guild President Jaguar Thangam were present along with the film crew at the music and preview launch ceremony. Thirumalai Vendan, Principal and Director of Tamil Nadu Film College, welcomed all those present.FEPCI President R. K. Selvamani said, “The director’s father, Thirumalai Vendan, was my junior at the film college. I have been friends with him for 40 years. His welcome and greetings were brief and excellent.
Many people are afraid when they see the director’s mother, Rajeshwari Amma. In fact, she is a revolutionary fighter. If you start interacting with her, you either become an enemy or a friend. But she has never betrayed anyone.
After watching the songs and the preview of this film, I think the Tamil film industry has got a wonderful talented team.
When we choose the heroine, we only look at the smile and eyes of the woman. In that way, Bhavya, who plays the heroine in this film, has a beautiful smile. She looks like Samantha. She has a great future in the South Indian film industry.
I have a request for the rising stars. Ask the director and the writers directly about the story. The actors’ managers and assistants should also listen to the story. Cinema is deteriorating because of the beginning.
This is why healthy friendships do not form in the film industry.
Whenever there is no understanding and friendship between a hero, heroine and director, that film is doomed to failure. I have learned this by studying my film.Producer Kyaar is a genius. If he thinks, he can solve the current problems in the film industry. I have great faith in him.
Today, seven to eight lakh tickets are sold in cinemas every day. Through this, the cinema owners get a revenue of two crore rupees per day. Sixty crore rupees are earned per month. All this is received by them through the producers of the film. But whether this income is received by the producers is not known. If the film does not run, only the producer suffers a loss.
A producer friend of mine mentioned that it has been five months since the release of the film ‘Madha Gaja Raja’ and the collections for it have not been fully received. This is the current situation of the producers. Therefore, I request the Producers’ Association to hold talks in this regard and announce a good decision.
The film industry should be good. Only the workers have been in the film industry for more than 30 years. Producers do not last for more than five years. Only a few producers have been successfully operating in the film industry for more than 30 years.
I have said in our Pepsi General Assembly that we, the workers, can only be well if the producers are well. 80 percent of the current producers treat their workers with great respect. So we also pray that they will be well.Producer Kyaar has a formula. He should use it to find solutions to the current problems. Even if we have made a mistake, he can point it out. We are ready to correct ourselves.
The film’s director Bala will become a great director in the future.
The music should be like the feeling you get when you hold a newborn baby in your arms. The story should be the same. If you want to tell a story to current heroes, they say, send it by mail. It’s like sending a child by mail. Only when the director narrates the story can the director know which moments in the story the audience enjoys and which they don’t. If you ask them to send the story by mail, it’s difficult. First, you have to think about how to translate the story into English.
Until now, there was a fear of ghost films. But this film tells that you can turn that ghost into a pet and raise it. So this film will definitely be a success,” he said.
Spiritual orator Mahavishnu said, “My parents first did business in Chennai. When it became a loss, they returned to their hometown. When I first came to Chennai at the age of 19, it was D.R. Bala who supported me by giving me a room, food, daily allowance and the opportunity to work in his direction. D.R. Bala, without knowing my background, discovered that I had some kind of power. He is a talented director. He has previously directed a short film called ‘Thirteen’. I directed a short film based on his life called ‘Chennai Brahmakal’. After this, our friendship continues till today. After that, due to unavoidable reasons, my attention turned towards spirituality.I would like to express my congratulations and gratitude to the actors, actresses and technicians who worked on the film. I humbly request you to support the film ‘Jinn – The Bed’ being directed by my friend T. R. Bala,” he said.
Director R. Aravindaraj said, “The leader of 16 little devils is a ghost. The leader of 16 ghosts is a ghost. I have read that. When I saw the preview of this ‘Jinn’ film, I remembered the film ‘Pattanamthil Bootham’. So this film will also be a huge success.
Movies with entertainment features have come a long way. And if a film with entertainment features is coming for children, it is welcome. Today, children enjoy watching ghost films.
I would like to express my gratitude to all the actors, actresses and technicians who worked on this film,” he said.
Producer Kyaar said, “The title is important for a film. If you give a title, that title should reach all sections of the audience. Nowadays, people of all languages watch the film on OTT, so the film needs to be titled in a way that they will like it. I appreciate the fact that director D.R. Bala has thought about all this well and named this film ‘Jin’.I recently watched the trailer of the film. As soon as I saw it, I understood its quality. The hero-heroine combination was superb. Gin is a new concept. A film called ‘E.T.’ was released under the direction of Steven Spielberg. ‘My Dear Kuttichathan’ was based on that. ‘Gin’ is a film that is being made to appeal to children in that way.
I was happy to hear that the audio rights and digital rights of the film have been sold. So this film has become a success even before its release. We can know the extent of its success through the cinemas from the 30th.
The director of this film, D.R. Bala Lokesh Kanagaraj, will become a leading star director like Nelson. He is so talented. That was clear from the trailer of the film,” he said.
Speaking, co-producer Raghavendra said, “I have a passion for cinema. When I thought I could produce a film, I got the story of the film. Since I liked the story of the film, I joined this team as a co-producer.
The story that has been featured in the trailer of this movie is one. But there is another story in the movie. It will be great. This is my first movie. I didn’t expect it to be this great.Producer Mrs. Rajeshwari Vendan said, “Five years ago, my son asked me to register a title called ‘Jin’ with the Producers’ Council. After that, I spoke to the Producers’ Council and registered the title ‘Jin’. After that, this Jin has torn my family apart. My son tells this title and story to another company, they said it was good but no further work was done. After that, he told this title and story to a leading film production company and a leading star actor to act in it. All the story discussions took place. But the shooting did not take place. At this point, the title of the film belongs to another company. After that, we asked that company for the title. They refused to give it. After that, we discussed with the Producers’ Council members and named it ‘Jin the Bed’. After that, our family has been moving towards the top.
A section says that God exists. A section says that God does not exist. But Jin definitely exists. It is good for us only after naming it ‘Jin- the Bed’ It happened.
This gin is grown in Malaysia.. The story of the film is based on that,” he said.
Actress Bhavya Tarika said, “On November 20, 2022, I was at my friend’s house. That’s when my friends told me about something called ‘gin’. I didn’t believe much about it then. They said that if you say a word and say it often, you will get its energy. I took that too for granted. I left from there at 2.30 am. After that, I rang my friend’s doorbell for some reason. At that moment, a voice called ‘Bhavya’ rang from behind me. I felt scared upon hearing that.Then the next morning I check my social media. Then a follower named Jinsha got a lot of likes and attracted attention. This made me even more scared, so I immediately went to temples, churches, dargahs, and gurudwaras. After three months, I became normal. After that, I got a script. Its title is ‘Jin’. I was surprised.
Director Bala met me in a commercial complex in Chennai. Then I shared my experience with Jin with him. He was also surprised. So somehow I have played the heroine in the film. I believe that Jin is also related to me.
Director Bala is very calm. Patient. He can be friendly on the set. He gives a lot of freedom to the artists. I liked that. So I was normal not only on the set but also while acting in the film. For this, I thank him at this moment.
There is a good positive vibe in this film. Jin has blessed me in my life. “This film is a family entertainer. It will be liked by all sections of people. Everyone should come to the theater on May 30th and support the film,” he said.After Bigg Boss Season 3, I have been acting in films continuously. I hope that an official announcement will be made soon as some of the films are completed.
Jin, who is acting in this film, is also a character. He must be here somewhere. I also thank him. The story of this film ‘Jin the Bed’ has been developed as a family entertainer that will appeal to everyone from children to adults. I request everyone to visit the cinema hall on May 30, watch the film, enjoy it and support it,” he said.
