Looks like Tamil filmmakers are inclined towards making movies with social themes. After farmers’ issues, now Varadharajan, a former assistant to Bhagyaraj and Thirumalai, is coming out with a film titled Thisai, which deals with the sensitive subject of malpractices in organic food sector and real estate.
Talking to DC, Varadharajan says, “We are touching two aspects. How the consumers are cheated with the sale of inorganic products disguised as organic food and how agricultural lands are turning into concrete buildings. With this backdrop, Thisai has a triangular love story as the core theme. I took help from my friends who have done research on the subject to present the film with authenticity.” He quickly adds, “All the same it is not preachy and has a good dose of commercial elements like comedy, music and romance.”
Producer Pawan and Yuvan, son of ace comedian Mayilsamy, play the male leads. Leema Babu and Athulya Ravi essay their pairs. After releasing the first song from the film Bhagyaraj has reportedly said that movies like Thisai should be given awards.
