Speech: "We have worked a lot for both the films. In Mersal we had a lot of sets which were very grand. The effort we put in Velaikaran was explicitly shown to the audience and hence we received a lot of appreciation. I thank DOP Vishu and DOP Ramu as they are the ones who portray our work with elegance it deserves. The final output is always in their hands."
