Vijay Sethupathi’s “Sir Madam” Set for Grand Telugu Release on August 1
Versatile actor Vijay Sethupathi and the very talented Nithya Menen star in the rom-com family drama “Sir Madam”, with the tagline “A Rugged Love Story”. Directed by Pandiraj, the film is produced by Sendhil Thyagarajan and Arjun Thyagarajan under the banner of Sathya Jyothi Films. Recently released in Tamil, the film turned out to be a massive hit and is now all set for a grand Telugu release on August 1. On this occasion, the makers organized a press meet.
Vijay Sethupathi:
“Greetings to everyone. This movie was a huge hit in Tamil, and I believe it will also be a big hit in Telugu. Every time I come to Hyderabad, the love and affection from the Telugu audience is overwhelming. I sincerely thank all the viewers. The Telugu songs written by Rambabu garu are beautiful and melodious. The story is something everyone can relate to. I even learned to make parathas for this role and took a two-month course for it (laughs). The director crafted the film brilliantly. I enjoy every role I play, and this film too was a wonderful experience. The story written by the director is very engaging, and we had a great time during the shoot. Working with Nithya is always a joy. We often discussed the film, the characters, and the story. The whole film was made in a warm, family-like atmosphere. I urge everyone to watch it in theatres. You’ll definitely enjoy it.”
Nithya Menen:
“Greetings to all. It’s been a while since I did a Telugu film, which is why I chose to dub for this film myself in Telugu. I’m very happy about this film. I’ve already worked with Vijay sir before, but that was a different film with a lot of silence. This one, on the other hand, is filled with violence (laughs). Director Pandiraj is excellent. I agreed to do the film as soon as I heard the story. This is not just a hero-heroine story, but a film that feels like one big family. Even off-screen, we all felt like a family. The cinematography and music are fantastic. I watched the film with Nandini, and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. It was a huge hit in Tamil — not just in numbers, but it touched people’s hearts too. I truly believe it will be just as successful in Telugu. It’s a story that will connect with everyone.”
Director Pandiraj:
“Greetings to all. My earlier film Chinna Babu, starring Karthi garu, was a big hit in Telugu. I directed that as well. Sir Madam is a beautiful story between a husband and wife. The film came out very well. Vijay Sethupathi and Nithya delivered wonderful performances. The movie has love, comedy, action, mass elements, and emotions — a perfect family entertainer. I’m confident that everyone will enjoy it.”
Director B. Nandini Reddy:
“Greetings to all. I’m not here just as a guest; I came after watching the film as an audience member. When I saw Vijay and Nithya on screen, I only saw their characters — that’s how convincing they were. Audiences are clapping in the theatres, which shows how well the film has worked. It’s like good home-cooked food — warm and comforting. Stories like this are rare. This is one of the cutest and most heart-touching films I’ve seen in recent times, with strong repeat value. It will definitely be a big hit in Telugu too.”
Cinematographer Sukumar:
“Greetings to all. I previously worked on the Telugu film Yashoda, which brought me a lot of recognition. I believe this film will elevate that further. I hope everyone supports the film.”
Lyricist Rambabu Gosala:
“Greetings. I’m fortunate to have had the opportunity to write all the songs for this film. My thanks to the director and producers for trusting me. The songs turned out really well. This is a feel-good film that the whole family can enjoy. Vijay Sethupathi and Nithya Menen gave amazing performances. I’m sure this film will entertain everyone.”
NVR Cinemas’ Suresh:
“Greetings. This is a story that will resonate with everyone. It’s a must-watch for all families. It was a huge hit in Tamil, and we hope it becomes just as successful in Telugu. Thank you, everyone.”
Producer Thyagarajan:
“Greetings to all. Working with Vijay Sethupathi was a great experience. I loved the story when the director narrated it, and I immediately felt it would be a successful film. When actors like Vijay Sethupathi and Nithya Menen came on board, my belief strengthened further. When a director connects emotionally with a script, it definitely results in something special. I sincerely thank Vijay Sethupathi and director Pandiraj for giving us such a wonderful film. This is a universal subject that everyone can relate to. I’m confident that Telugu audiences will embrace this film as warmly as the Tamil audience did. I sincerely hope for your support and love.”
