According to Sunny Leone, it is the media that uses the word ‘objectification’ for women. She said, ‘It is only the media that is using the word objectification. Thousands of people come to the cinema to watch films because of these songs. This is not objectification, it is providing entertainment and we are here to provide that to the audience.’ Sunny Leone further added, ‘We have to stop using this word and ensure that cinema is on top again, otherwise none of us will have a job. When you buy a ticket, it matters a lot to the actors. Please make sure you support every upcoming film.’

The director further said, ‘Screenwriter Dinil PK came to me with the plan of a Malayalam film. When I read it, it had a lot of dance moves and sequences. We did not think it would be easy to find an actor in Kerala who could be a part of the entire dance music. That’s why we decided to make the film in Tamil and chose Prabhu Deva for this film.’ Let us tell you that the film will hit the theaters on September 27.
