A.R. Murugadoss is next coming up with ' Madharaasi ' featuring Sivakarthikeyan in the lead role, and the film is slated to release on September 5. AR Murugadoss turned busy promoting 'Madharaasi', and he has been sharing several insights about the film.

Failures taught him the value of solid storytelling

At the same time, AR Murugadoss, who was involved in promotional interviews for the film 'Madharaasi', which will be released on September 5, effectively shared his creative skills. Speaking with Valai Pechu, the 'Madharaasi' director said that "During the films 'Thuppakki' and 'Kaththi', the story was not fully prepared, and I thought about it during the shooting, but they were successful. That gave me the wrong impression that the story was easy to get. But failures taught me the importance of developing a story in the right way".

Sivakarthikeyan has his own unique style, loved by kids

When asked if he had any plans to make Sivakarthikeyan look like Vijay , he said in his chat with Valai Pechu, “Everyone has a unique image. MGR, Rajini, Vijay – all of them have created their own style. Similarly, Sivakarthikeyan has also created his own style. All three have one thing in common – they are actors loved by children,” said AR Murugadoss. He also recalled with a laugh that the dance he performed at his family event went viral, which was part of his wife's planned show.

Murugadoss hints at ‘ Thuppakki 2 ’ sequel possibility

Director A.R. Murugadoss has said that the film that can be continued as a sequel to his films is the film 'Thuppakki'. He said the structure of the story itself creates the possibility for a second part. He said the story could continue through situations that occur there or here, whether the protagonist goes back to the army or the family is here. He also emphasized that Sathyan's comedy scene automatically set the stage for 'Thuppaki 2'.
