In consultation with the legend, a core team has been set up that will monitor the celebrations. The core team has legendary director K. Balachander, actor Sivakumar, actor / producer – Sarath Kumar, Member of Parliament Napolean, directors – A.R. Murugadoss and Myshkin, actors Kushboo and Jaimala, playback singer / producer – S.P. Charan, film critics Madan and Yugi Sethu.
The advertising fraternity has already expressed great interest in associating with these celebrations; many partners like logistics (KPN Travels), hospitality (The Accord Metropolitan) and multiplex (Sathyam Cinemas) have already been roped in. With huge promotional plans across various mediums; this would surely be an event to watch out for.!
Kamal Haasan speaks “these 50 years in cinema is not a single man’s achievement. There are many people in my life who have been an inspiration in making these 50 years happen; this is a team effort. I’m thankful to my producers who have believed in me and my work. I will always be grateful to AVM Chettiar, Shanmugam Annachi, Iyakunar Sigaram K.Balachander and many others who have always been my strength and watched out for me through these years. These 50 years would come in any person’s life; but it was Vijay TV that first presented this concept and was determined to celebrate this in a grand manner.“
He adds, “It gives me great honor that most of my friends from the industry are present here today to address the media. They are the people who always speak well of me even in my absence; and have been a source of support through my failures. Their willingness to be a part of this event gives me great pleasure. Only now, I would have to make myself worthy of all the nice things that they have said or would tell about me in this forum; and I will take this as my responsibility. This isn’t humility; but my true self.”
“My friends, directors, producers and fans who have attended the meet today have always been with me giving me strength, guiding and protecting me; and a major contribution of this comes from the media. Vijay TV has also been a part of my life, they have been good critics and I am indebted to all of you for this” he adds.
“This is not the zenith of my life, but it is an incident that has happened without my realizing it. Suddenly, when faced with the question on these 50 years; I am telling the truth when I say I search for an answer. There is a lot more for me to achieve and I will take this as morning alarm to shake me up and continue my work; I would not think of this as an evening… thank you” he concludes.
