Speaking about the movie, Hochimin, says, “It is India’s first film on Sumo fighters. Due credit should be given to Japanese government and their embassy for helping us shoot scenes involving sumo fighters in India and Japan. Noted cinematographer P C Sreeram, who had been to Cannes International Film Festival, was mightily impressed with the story and readily agreed to crank the camera for Sumo.”
“It is an hilarious emotional drama. It will entertain people of all age-groups,” he adds.
