Madhoo said, “I am playing the character of Janaki Ramachandran, MGR’s wife in the film. It feels great to share screen space once again with my Roja co-star Arvind Swami. The film is being made in Tamil and Hindi. Kangana is speaking the dialogues all by herself and her Tamil pronunciations are so good.”
