Even after four years, the success of Maanaadu continues to taste sweet, says producer Suresh Kamatchi with deep emotion.Directed by Venkat Prabhu and starring Silambarasan TR (STR) in the lead role, Maanaadu was released in 2021 and became a milestone in Tamil cinema. Being the first Tamil film to handle the time-loop concept with high quality, the movie became a blockbuster hit both commercially and critically.
On this day, November 25, 2025, marking the film’s fourth anniversary, producer Suresh Kamatchi posted on his social media page:
“This victory still tastes sweet…
It’s been four years… yet it still tastes sweet…
Our Maanaadu… a journey that can never be forgotten…
Thank you Venkat Prabhu sir, thank you Simbu sir… thank you Kalaiippuli S. Thanu sir… thank you to the entire team… ❤️”
Maanaadu not only kick-started Silambarasan’s successful second innings but also strengthened the confidence in genre films in Tamil cinema. Even today, fans continue to celebrate the film through re-releases and on OTT platforms. It truly remains a victory story that “still tastes sweet.”
