Interesting title 'Mary Gold' - very unique! And the backdrop of Tirunelveli and Thoothukudi region is always fresh on screen. The rivalry between the two districts sounds like a great plot. Rakshan is slowly building a good filmography.
Trident Arts is a reliable production house, they always back quality content. But I really hope the 'fast-paced' shooting doesn't compromise on the script quality. Lately we've seen too many rushed projects. Hope Priyan Rajendran delivers!
Vadivukkarasi and Singampuli in the cast - that's a solid lineup of character artists! And Siddhu Kumar for music is a great choice after his recent hits. The southern Tamil Nadu flavor always adds extra masala. Waiting for the teaser! 🔥
Prabhu sir is a legend, and Sukanya ma'am is timeless. 31 years is a long time, but their chemistry was so natural back then. Hope the script gives them proper scope instead of just using them for nostalgia value. Family drama with action sounds promising.
The rivalry between Tirunelveli and Thoothukudi cultures is such an under-explored theme in Tamil cinema. This could be a refreshing change from the usual Chennai or Madurai settings. Rakshan seems to be choosing different scripts - that's good to see.
