Suriya was very positive in his speech during the press meet of Thaanaa Serndha Koottam, where he thanked Vignesh Shivn for giving a refreshing role to him.
"First of all, best wishes to Rajini sir, Kamal sir, Vishal and other actors, on their political entry. Gnanavel Raja has an important place to share, in my growth, apart from my directors and fans. Vignesh told me that he had two scripts for Vijay Sethupathi and Sivakarthikeyan.
Then, he narrated me the story of TSK. It is based on a real-life incident, but his narration was fresh and had a new style. His writing had shades of Kamal sir's classics like Sathya and Varumayin Niram Sivappu. He is a very positive person. The audience would have seen me shouting and speaking loudly, but there wouldn't be anything of that sort in TSK.
I don't get angry at all, in this film, and the reason is Vignesh's writing. He knows what he wants, and he told me that he wants to show a refreshingly new me in the film. I'd be seen being positive throughout the film, and it was so nice for me to act. It was a whole new experience. We had a special screening for a set of our close people, and I got quite a few comments about my new makeover. I feel, that all those credits should go to Vignesh. TSK has Vignesh Shivn's stamp, written allover.
There are no smoking or drinking scenes in the film, and the audience will not see the disclaimer ad at the start. I am excited to see the film on January 12, and I will catch the FDFS along with the fans. TSK will satisfy everyone, and it is a complete entertainer suiting the festive mood of Pongal."
