Working with you on both the films in Tamil and Hindi was an absolute pleasure, a dream come true and extremely satisfying as an artist to have you direct me (sic).”

She added, “Both my co stars @ajaydevgn and @actorsuriya were just perfect and wonderful to work with. I remember this was the first time I worked with AJ ( Ajay ) and how mani sir & I would talk to each other in Tamil all the time while discussing the scenes which left Ajay wondering what on earth was being said. Suriya I remember as a man of few words but once the cameras rolled we both were totally on fire in character full of life. (sic).”
