This represents their second collaboration with Kamal, after their work in Lokesh Kanagaraj Vikram’s action epic. AnbAriv expressed his enthusiasm for the project, saying: “While we are excited, we know that delivering the goods is a huge responsibility. We started working on business possibilities the minute we got the call.
“As action choreographers, our job is not just to show the sequence. We read the entire script and suggest places where the ‘heat’ is missing. Sometimes we suggest characters and dialogue in the run-up to the fight. They remember that ten years ago, we would only listen to a basic story We are working on action scenes.
