Chennai, Jan 21 (NationPress) Celebrating the birthday of his dear friend Santhanam, actor Vishal referred to the comedian-turned-hero as “a remedy for numerous individuals’ problems”. Vishal, whose most recent film Madha Gaja Raja has turned out to be a major success, took to X to send birthday wishes to his close friend and co-star in the film, Santhanam.
Affectionately calling Santhanam his beloved brother, Vishal expressed, “Absolutely thrilled for you, for us, and for the massive hit #MadhaGajaRaja. Our pairing has always been cherished by the audience. Thank you for being part of the triumphant journey of #MGR and I wish you endless success, peace & prosperity.”
He further described Santhanam as a doctor without a degree. Vishal remarked, “Continue being the doctor without a degree because when you appear on screen, you serve as the remedy to many individuals’ problems by bringing joy through your laughter therapy. Keep performing this magic. Love you and God Bless.”
Directed by Sundar C, Madha Gaja Raja has been produced by Gemini Film Circuit and features Vishal, Anjali, and Varalaxmi Sarathkumar in lead roles. Actors Santhanam and Sonu Sood play significant parts in the film, which started production in 2012 and was concluded in 2013. The film remained unreleased for over ten years due to financial difficulties, but it has finally been launched and achieved success.
Interestingly, Santhanam began his film journey as a comedian before transitioning to a full-fledged hero. When ‘Madha Gaja Raja’ was originally made, he was cast as a comedian. However, the film was released nearly 13 years later, by which point Santhanam had established himself as a reliable hero in the Tamil film industry.
