Director Tarun Murthy says that making Luqman the hero is not arrogance but pride. Tarun’s note comes in the backdrop of Luqman’s praise for Thallumala.
It is a great joy to see the audience approaching the actor Lukman. There is more pride and excitement.
It is not just one actor who weaves Unda, Jawa and Thallumala. The joy and excitement of becoming an actor is also the dream of a group of aspiring and striving people.
Lukman and I only had the experience of attending auditions together in the past. But I don’t know what made me decide to make him one of the heroes when I decided to do the first film.
I don’t know why…When we joined Vinaya Dasan in Operation Java, neither of us knew that this was the beginning of a big journey…
Even though Jawa was a success, there were people who complained when they came to know that Luqman was the lead in the second film, Saudi Vellakka, and there were people who said it was my arrogance. All they have to say is this…not pride, but pride. Faces matching the character can be found. Being able to make a film with them… being able to see every step of it. Because for us, cinema is not only a business, but also an art.
Binu Chetan, Gokulan, Ramya Suresh, Nilja, Dhanya, Sajeed Pattalam, Vincy, Rhea Saira, Pramod Veliyanadu, Sujith Shankar and all
They have amazing life experience… They amaze you on screen because of their real life experience…
I know that the paths you walked from Changaramkulam to cinema were not easy, Lukman…
The fact that you, the hero, overcome the difficulties and opened a big door… a door of hope for many people like us who were longing for cinema…’ – Tarun wrote on Facebook.
