It is a known fact that director Siruthai Siva started his journey in Kollywood through the film Siruthai, after which he went on to direct Ajith 3 times. His next film, Viswasam is also with Ajith. Karthi who is the hero of Siruthai, talked about his relationship with Siva.
When asked about how the tag Siruthai, sticks with Siva even after directing Ajith 4 times, he said: "Siruthai Siva and I have never talked about this. He would have told in an interview that he is still proud about the tag Siruthai."
He also added that "Siva and I are childhood friends. We've played together. During the shoot of Siruthai he told me about this and only then I remembered those days."
