Dhuruvangal 16 director Karthick Naren, who is currently busy with the pre-production work of Dhanush’s next, took to his Twitter page and remembered how ace filmmaker Mani Ratnam helped him keep going against all the odds.
Jan 16, 2016. ‘Dhuruvangal Pathinaaru’ did not have any buyers. Showed the trailer to Mani sir ahead of its online release. He said, “Looks interesting.I’m curious to watch the film.All the best”. Those were the words which kept me going against all the odds. Happy birthday sir❤️ pic.twitter.com/QbVSE6EDdU
