Karu Palaniappan on Seenu Ramasamy's 'Kozhipannai Chelladurai': Accepting it as your achievement might hinder your progress

Under the direction of Seenu Ramasamy, the film 'Kozhipannai Chelladurai', starring Aegan, Yogi Babu, and Sagaya Brigida, was released in theatres last September. Even though the emotional drama failed to grab attention at the box office, it has been receiving better responses after its OTT release. Filmmaker Karu Palaniappan shared his review on Facebook. He wrote: “Brother, haven’t you watched 'Kozhipannai Chelladurai'? Watch it and write a few good lines about it on Facebook. Though we’ve known each other since college, this is my first letter to you. Your film may not have succeeded in theaters, but it’s being praised after its OTT release. While many appreciate your work, elevating a flawed film like this shows their kindness. Accepting it as your achievement might hinder your progress. Seenu Ramasamy, the heights you need to reach are immense. Don’t let early praise hold you back. I hope your next film surpasses 'Thenmerku Paruvakaatru' and 'Dharma Durai', achieving even greater acclaim.”

Director Seenu Ramasamy responded, “Whenever I meet you, I’ve asked for kind words about my films. If your words forgive my flaws, your fans might celebrate my work even more. Today’s digital world allows films like mine, overlooked in theaters, to gain national recognition on OTT platforms. This opportunity defines the uniqueness of our times. I look forward to inviting you to the puja of my 10th film and seeking your blessings. It’s a joy to see Kozhipannai Chelladurai cross 10 crore+ watch minutes, thanks to posts from people like you, blessings from senior creators, and word-of-mouth support from new audiences.”
