A very successful film; Still there was much opposition and silence that day: Srinivasan
Message was a 1991 film written by Srinivasan and directed by Sathyan Anthikad. Srinivasan, Jayaram, Thilakan, Kaviyoor Ponnamma and finally Unnikrishnan, Siddique and Mathu were the best stars in this movie.
Through the political and family satirical film, the message was given that how blind politics affects family relations and society in a harmful way. The super hit film was remade in 1994 by director Thulasidas in Tamil as Veetai Par Nattai Par.
Srinivasan says there were protests as usual when the film “Masthe” was released. He says, as part of that, he got a lot of dumb calls. The actor was speaking in an interview with One to Talks.
“When the film Sandesham was released, there were protests as usual that day. As part of it, I got a lot of dumb words. The letters came without name and address.
One of them wrote, ‘Oh, we bought you the freedom you enjoy today.’ I didn’t realize it was freedom. I searched everywhere and I didn’t find that freedom (laughs). That’s what Pulli actually wrote in that dumb voice,’ said Srinivasan.
