“Bharathiraja has a love affair in ‘Imayamum Sigaramum Irattaisuzhi’. This forms the crux of the film,” says director Thamira, who is counting the days for the movies’s release, scheduled for Friday (April 23).

“The film is not for children alone though it has many kids playing the pivotal roles. The movie is for everyone in the family. It is a feel good entertainer which would have a positive impact on the minds of the audience,” he says.

On the delay behind the film’s release, he says, “since we shot many scenes on school children, we had to wait patiently for their holidays. This is the reason behind taking so much time to complete the shoot.”

Releasing this Friday, the movie’s reservation has started today in theatres and multiplexes all over Tamil Nadu. Produced by Shankar on ‘S’ Picture banner, ‘Imayamum Sigaramum Irattaisuzhi’ has veteran directors K Balachander and Bharathiraja in lead roles, besides ‘Angadi Theru’ fame Anjali. The movie marks the comeback of music composer Karthik Raja.
