At the audio launch of Viruman, Karthi spoke widely about Viruman and the fact that the film in itself is an ode to Madurai. This is also the reason why the team planned to have the function there.

Karthi said “In Viruman, my father is my biggest villain. Who better than Prakash Raj sir to play the character. It was such a blessing to work with him. I also got the opportunity to work with actress Vadivukkarasi, with whom I wanted to share the screen for a long time.”

Suriya, who is producing Viruman, even went the long length to say that Karthi is a better actor than him, and the National Award is round the corner for him too. Viruman is all set to hit the screens on the 12th of August.
