And altogether, I am not talking just about the stars incorporated or played for the story and I think the credit goes to Mani Ratnam.

Mr Mani Ratnam, the team the cinematographer, the musician, everybody they have worked together to make Tamil cinema international. And this is people that have embraced which is a good sign that Tamil Cinema is probably moving towards the golden age and expected to go in that direction.
