Mythri Movie Distribution will handle the film’s release in Telugu.
Dialogue writer Rakendu Mouli commented, “I am a big fan of Vikram sir. My father, Vennelakanti, worked with him, and my brother, Shashank Vennelakanti, worked on Vikram’s film ‘Nanna.’ I am thrilled to write dialogues for this movie. Vikram’s dedication is extraordinary, and ‘Thangalaan’ showcases his commitment as an actor. Malavika Mohanan’s role will significantly enhance her image. This film should be enjoyed in theaters as it offers a unique cinematic experience. I hope everyone will watch it on August 15.”
Hollywood actor Daniel said, “Without my brother Vikram, director Pa Ranjith, Malavika, and Parvathy, ‘Thangalaan’ wouldn’t have been possible. I am grateful to producer Gnanavel Raja for including me in this film. ‘Thangalaan’ is an incredible movie that provides an amazing experience. Be sure to watch it in theaters.”
Heroine Malavika Mohanan expressed her gratitude, “I want to thank director Pa Ranjith for believing that I could portray the character of Aarti in ‘Thangalaan.’ I am thrilled to be part of this remarkable film. Thanks to Vikram, Gnanavel Raja, Parvathy, and Daniel. Watch ‘Thangalan’ in theaters on August 15 and enjoy the film.”
Producer SKN noted, “Vikram’s previous hit movie, ‘Aparichitudu,’ was familiar to many, and ‘Thangalaan’ seems to be on a different level after watching the 15-minute footage Gnanavel Raja showed us. It promises a unique experience for the audience. Vikram is beloved by audiences in both Telugu states, and Pa Ranjith has a strong fan base here. I am confident that ‘Thangalan’ will be a blockbuster and provide a great experience for all.”
Director Karuna Kumar stated, “While many films feature playful songs, director Pa Ranjith creates movies that highlight our history and cultural symbols. I am a big fan of his work. Vikram’s performance in ‘Thangalan’ is outstanding, and the film deserves an Oscar. Producer Gnanavel Raja is making significant efforts to achieve this. I encourage everyone to watch ‘Thangalan’ in theaters on August 15.”
Director Sai Rajesh said, “Producer Gnanavel showed some footage from ‘Thangalaan,’ and it was truly amazing. This footage highlights how unique this film is. The effort put in by the entire team is impressive. This film transports the audience to another world. I wish director Pa Ranjith, Vikram, Gnanavel, and the entire team great success with ‘Thangalan.'”

Thanks to Gnanavel for giving us the opportunity to distribute this film. We hope to gain a good reputation with ‘Thangalaan.’ Along with ‘Thangalaan,’ we are also releasing ‘Mr. Bachchan.’ I wish all the films released on August 15—’Thangalaan,’ ‘Mr. Bachchan,’ ‘AAY,’ and ‘Double ismart’—great success.”

I hope you enjoy watching it in theaters.”
Producer Damodara Prasad remarked, “‘Thangalaan’ is a rare cinematic endeavor. Vikram is one of our country’s most versatile actors. While we now talk about Pan India, Vikram has always had a Pan India appeal. I hope ‘Thangalaan’ becomes a big hit and that this team gains well-deserved recognition.”
Heroine Payal Rajput shared, “I am thrilled to be invited to the ‘Thangalaan’ event. I had seen Vikram at a Filmfare function but didn’t get a chance to speak with him. It’s exciting to speak in front of him now. I am a big fan of Vikram and hope ‘Thangalaan’ breaks all box office records.”
Director-Producer Madhura Sreedhar Reddy stated, “We have eagerly awaited ‘Thangalaan.’ It resonates with the essence of our roots, similar to films like ‘Baahubali,’ ‘Pushpa,’ and ‘Balagam.’ ‘Thangalaan’ is a film of gold. Director Pa Ranjith has created a world-class cinema with this film. Both Vikram and Pa Ranjith have large fan bases in Telugu. Creating a film like ‘Thangalaan’ requires immense courage, and my friend Gnanavel Raja possesses that courage and passion. I hope this film brings him great success and boosts his confidence to continue making such films. Best wishes to the entire ‘Thangalan’ team.”
Heroine Parvathy Thiruvothu said, “I am delighted to have acted with Vikram in ‘Thangalaan.’ He was very supportive, and the entire film team received his full cooperation. I play the character of Gangamma, who will always be special to me. Thanks to director Pa Ranjith for giving me such a wonderful role. ‘Thangalaan’ will take you to a new world, so be sure to watch it in theaters.”
Producer Gnanavel Raja expressed his gratitude, “Thanks to Damodara Prasad, SKN, Sai Rajesh, Payal Rajput, and everyone who attended the ‘Thangalaan’ event. The Telugu audience has a great love for cinema, which is my passion. I appreciate Vikram, Parvathy, Malavika, Pa Ranjith, Daniel, and the entire team for their hard work on ‘Thangalaan.’ The trailer and other content reflect our efforts. I hope you will support our film in theaters. Alongside ‘Thangalaan,’ I wish success to Ravi Teja’s ‘Mr. Bachchan,’ Ram Gari’s ‘Double ISmart,’ and Bunny’s ‘AAY.’ Congratulations to SKN and Sai Rajesh for winning five Filmfare Awards for ‘Baby.'”
Director Pa Ranjith said, “I am grateful to everyone who supports my ideas and perspectives expressed through cinema. It is rare to receive such favor. Oppression and inequality still persist in our country, lingering in our society for many years. I chose film as a medium to address these issues. I am pleased to be in Hyderabad for the ‘Thangalaan’ event, as the Telugu audience has always embraced my films. I hope you will appreciate this movie as well. ‘Thangalaan’ is not an ordinary film. We are depicting a historical event that occurred before independence. This story is not just about a quest for gold but a struggle for freedom and rights. These struggles continue in society today. Through cinema, I have expressed my views. Vikram has deeply understood the story, the character, and the emotions of ‘Thangalaan.’ We are fortunate to have an actor like Vikram. Gnanavel Raja supported this film with great faith and commitment. He was impressed by ‘Thangalaan,’ and we are confident it will be a success. We are witnessing a trend where good movies are gaining popularity nationwide, and we hope ‘Thangalan’ will be well-received as well.”
Hero Chiyaan Vikram said, “The energy and enthusiasm you are showing are like gold. Telugu cinephiles are very special, and we need your continuous support and encouragement. I hope you enjoyed the teaser and trailer of ‘Thangalaan.’ I am grateful to all the guests who attended our event. Your kind words about me and our film brought me immense joy. I portrayed Aditya Karikalan in ‘Ponniyin Selvan,’ a story set a thousand years ago, and received your love. ‘Thangalaan’ is set a hundred years ago and is a beautiful adventure film. Director Ranjith has created it with remarkable artistry. ‘Thangalaan’ is a fantastic movie, and I am eager for you all to watch it. Seeing the performances from my previous films on stage made me emotional and inspired me to take on different roles. Ranjith is my dream director, and I was thrilled when he told me about ‘Thangalaan.’ We have kept many aspects of the movie under wraps to surprise you. This film contains adventure, a message, magic, and emotions. I believe this is the best role I have had. Gnanavel Raja provided us with complete freedom in producing the film. I am thankful to him for aiming to take it to a global stage, not just Pan India. Everyone on our team contributed passionately to this film. I am confident you will connect with the content when you watch it in theaters. Parvathy and Malavika delivered excellent performances. Thank you for your response to ‘Thangalan.’ See you in theaters on August 15.
