Chennai, June 2

Disclosing that the music of music director Darbuka Shiva had played a big role in his wedding, well known actor Aarav has now said that he had impressed the bride and her family by singing the music director's 'Visiri' song and that was how his wedding had happened.

Participating in the pre-release event of director Dayal Padmanabhan's eagerly awaited period crime thriller 'Lakshmikanthan Kolai Vazhakku' as a guest, actor Aarav, during the course of his speech, turned to the film's music director Darbuka Shiva and thanked him.

He said with a smile, "Darbuka Shiva bro, your music has played a big role in my life. It was because of you that I got married."

Going on to explain how exactly the popular music director's music had played a role, he said, " Usually, when bridegrooms visit the bride's side, they ask if the bride can sing. When we had gone to see the bride, I had simply asked if the bride could sing. Those present there said, "Why should only brides sing? Let the bridegroom sing."

Aarav then added with a smile, "So, I sang your song 'Visiri' and that was how my wedding happened. Thank you so much."

Meanwhile, the makers of the film have now announced that they are considering the possibility of releasing the eagerly awaited crime legal drama on June 26 this year.

Honestly, this is such a wholesome moment! I remember when 'Visiri' first released, it became an instant hit at weddings. Aarav singing it to impress his in-laws is peak Tamil cinema romance. Can't wait for 'Lakshmikanthan Kolai Vazhakku' - the cast looks promising!

What a refreshing story in an industry often focused on controversies! Aarav's gesture to publicly thank Darbuka Shiva shows real class. Though I wish the article had more details about the film's plot - period crime thrillers are my favorite genre. June 26 release can't come soon enough!

Love how Aarav turned the tables when they said 'let the groom sing'! That's our desi culture - always some twist in wedding arrangements. Darbuka Shiva deserves all the appreciation, his music has been elevating films lately. Hope the film does well!

This is so heartwarming! Imagine if more actors shared such personal stories instead of just promoting films. 'Visiri' is truly a magical song. And Vetri from 'Jiivi' playing the lead in this period thriller? Count me in for June 26!

Respect to Aarav for crediting Darbuka Shiva so publicly. In our industry, many forget to acknowledge those who helped them. But the article itself could have been better structured - there's a lot of film details thrown in randomly. Anyway, excited for the movie!
