01:36This film was long time to hear you
01:39What did I miss?
01:40I think you are going to be the latest film.
01:42I think you are going to be the first time, Rashmi Kadaru.
01:44Yeah, it's strange.
01:45It's a very interesting song, Ainty Ainty.
01:48Oh, yeah.
01:50It's a very good song.
01:51It's a very good song.
01:52Oh Kalana Kathala, dear comrade.
01:56I mean, you don't have a discography, Gurtu Leka.
01:59I don't do it.
02:00I'm so sorry.
02:01Ainty Ainty Ainty, I have a very interesting song.
02:03That song is so beautiful.
02:05But Ainty Ainty, yeah.
02:07Yeah, I'm so sorry.
02:08I think music directors, if you choose to, next time, I'm like, cross.
02:13Deepavli Rose Gabbatti, our first segment is bursting myths.
02:17Because myth is bursting.
02:19Bursting is what it means.
02:21We are doing wordplay with bursting crackers.
02:23I'm over-explaining and hamming this to ruin this also.
02:27I will try it.
02:28Don't worry.
02:34Alright, so the first question.
02:36Director Garu,
02:37Girlfriend is a feel-good rom-com entertainer.
02:40That's not true.
02:43Oh, they don't know what is coming.
02:47So, let's talk about it.
02:48It is...
02:50To be honest, we are saying the mood we are clearly talking about the mood.
02:57The mood is not sweet, cute, rom-com.
03:01So, it is a very, very intense relationship drama.
03:04So, and it...
03:07So, there is a lot of intense emotional experience in the cinema.
03:12There is a lot of intense emotional experience in the cinema.
03:15So, it is not rom-com, sweet, but it is very real.
03:18So, there is a lot of intense emotional experience in the cinema.
03:24So, there is a lot of intense emotional experience in the cinema.
03:28And I would like to actually include a lot of important stories to be told in this generation and in the generation of the relationships that we have today.
03:33So, it's a very important topic to be told and not many people would be probably comfortable or open enough to talk about, but that's the thing that we have today.
03:43It's a very important topic to be told and not many people would be probably comfortable or open enough to talk about, but that's the exact reason why we have done this film.
04:06Yeah.
04:07So, this is a very important question.
04:10Is this a feminist film?
04:11Asal.
04:12Asal.
04:13Yes.
04:14Asal.
04:15I don't see it as a feminist film.
04:17I see it as a thought-provoking film.
04:19It's more of...it gives you another perspective, I feel.
04:22And...
04:24Do you want to add something to it?
04:26Yeah.
04:27I was wondering, that the first time I saw Rashmika's script in the film, I saw a beautiful way.
04:34I want to do this film as a big hug to all the girls out there.
04:40Yeah.
04:41And I remember telling her,
04:43End of the day, I am a father.
04:47So, I want to do this film as a big hug to all the girls out there.
04:53But I am making it for my boys out there.
04:55I am making it for my first film as a big hug to all the girls out there.
05:02My first film was about two people.
05:04One of them is the same film as a big hug to all the girls out there.
05:08I don't know if it's a spiritual sequel to all the girls out there.
05:11I want to realize that this film is about the same film as a big hug to all the girls out there.
05:18In reality, the festival is about a big hug to all the girls out there.
05:23The film is about a big hug.
05:24The film is about a big hug.
05:26The movie is about the nature of incompatibility.
05:27Can it be overcome?
05:29The film is about the film.
05:31What is it?
05:32when they look at drastic physical changes in their early teens and deal with them,
05:40they come to a lot of emotional and mental maturity.
05:44But they take a little time to get emotional and mental maturity.
05:50So I see this film as my affectionate love letter to the boys out there saying,
05:56Guys, sometimes in my relationship, in that age, I don't know any perspective.
06:03So maybe if I present this, I don't know anything.
06:06That's the point of view.
06:08So for me, it is as important that what the boys take away from this film is as important as what the girls take away from this film.
06:15So feminist cinema, I don't know about these labels.
06:18But it is made for both genders for sure.
06:22So actually, next thing I want to ask, is this movie also meant only for girls?
06:27You have already answered that question.
06:28It's not.
06:29It's definitely not.
06:30It's meant very much for boys as much as girls.
06:32I think the best case scenario is that
06:34if they have their parents, their parents, their boyfriends, their husbands,
06:40their cinema is perfect.
06:42I think if you have any of them in your life,
06:46you can bring them to the cinema.
06:47If you have any of them in your life,
06:49you can bring them to the cinema.
06:51So is it like the entire family can see it?
06:56Would you say that?
06:57Oh, definitely.
06:58Definitely.
06:59I think it's very relatable to every age group.
07:05I agree with Rahul when he says that
07:11that first time, I felt like it was a hug for all the women.
07:16But at the same time, I felt like
07:19either it is,
07:20and the life is hard.
07:21In this point, in this degree,
07:23in this degree,
07:24life is hard.
07:26Abba also,
07:27and Amma also.
07:29So it's so fascinating because Rahul being a man,
07:34he has understood emotions in a way where
07:38sometimes even I will probably not be able to write about.
07:41You know, so I'm like,
07:43how?
07:44Have you done this?
07:45And you have to do all these things.
07:47But it is very fascinating.
07:49And I think when tomorrow people watch it,
07:52people are happy.
07:53Because there are many emotions,
07:56you can't really speak of it.
07:58You can't really explain it.
07:59You can't really get through it.
08:00So you have to do it,
08:01you will have to get through it.
08:03So it's those emotions.
08:05It was interesting.
08:07One of the beautiful things that happened was,
08:09this is,
08:10I had to edit a lot of the editor,
08:11I was a kid,
08:12and I was a kid,
08:13but I was a kid.
08:14So I was a kid.
08:15And I was a kid.
08:16If I was a kid,
08:17I was a kid.
08:18I was a kid.
08:19He was a kid.
08:20So I was a kid.
08:21I was a kid.
08:23But I was a kid.
08:25I was a kid.
08:27I was a kid.
08:28I was a kid.
08:29So
08:30First time,
08:30my cinema should feel likeмерño.
08:31the flow to the cinema.
08:34that is true in thisryw of this 많ation.
08:36If you have laughed from the screen in,
08:37you want to be in silent time.
08:40You are a kid.
08:41You said that you wereυτoy clearly.
08:43Next day,
08:44this morning RhondaOS.
08:45and I was fired up.
08:46fired up,
08:48he showed up.
08:50lectured up for the cinema.
08:51I'm worried though
08:53in car driving
08:54that I was in my mind.
08:56I said, I call my wife and said, I love you Bangaram.
09:10You know I love you.
09:13And he told me, I was a good husband.
09:17I called my husband and I called my husband.
09:23I called my husband and I called my husband.
09:26I was like, that's so beautiful.
09:28I mean, yeah, I think that's the film it is.
09:31The next question is,
09:33this film is Arjun Reddy's female version.
09:38No, not at all.
09:40You said, Arjun Reddy's film,
09:44you know, many years ago,
09:47sorry, you know.
09:49It's not my wife.
09:53So, yeah, it's a story.
09:55Actually, when I travel that time,
09:58you have traveled with the story.
10:00You are basically married to the story before me, right?
10:02It's true.
10:03Yes, it's true.
10:04Yeah.
10:05I love the dynamics that are happening.
10:09Please keep this, okay?
10:11All right.
10:12This is my most favorite.
10:14And then,
10:15because in my Twitter timeline,
10:17but girlfriend cinema,
10:18actually,
10:19Raas Indi Chinmai,
10:20directed by Rahul Ravindran.
10:21Oh, damn.
10:22That's true.
10:23It's true.
10:24It's true.
10:25Is it true?
10:26It's true.
10:27Definitely not.
10:28I can't write.
10:29Just need to clarify.
10:30No.
10:31Actually,
10:32the thought really came to my mind also.
10:33Really?
10:34Writing the script,
10:35I thought,
10:36because what Rashmika said,
10:37a man can write something like this.
10:38I really thought,
10:39okay,
10:40is it he writing or is it you writing?
10:42Not writing writing,
10:43but at least,
10:44you know,
10:45have the discussion together.
10:46No,
10:47if I can write so much,
10:48I would have won my first national award several years ago.
10:50But it's still true.
10:51No,
10:52no,
10:53no,
10:54no,
10:55no,
10:56no,
10:57no,
10:58it's still not happening.
11:00Svargaro,
11:01he has won it anyway.
11:02So, yeah.
11:03Since I was telling it,
11:04Kadhu,
11:05in fact,
11:06I have a screenplay that I have felt sacrificed when I watched a movie,
11:09when I watched a movie,
11:10I feel very strongly.
11:12Oh,
11:13seriously,
11:15I can't write an opinion,
11:16what's wrong with that.
11:17I can't get mad at it.
11:18It's not a pressure.
11:19That's true.
11:20It's because you know how many scripts are.
11:22It's not an idea.
11:23You said,
11:24you can't write a movie,
11:25it's a force,
11:26if Kadhu wrote a movie,
11:27like this. I'm like, can I read in peace? Okay. Then he'll be like, you were twitching
11:35your eye, your eyelash was fluttering. One small muscle was moving. What do you think?
11:41What do you think? What do you think? What do you think? If the twitching is happening
11:45it is because I don't know. So I'm like, so much pressure. What do you say? What do you
11:50say? What do you say? I don't know, dude. All of this is a little involuntary. So it's
11:55impossible for me. Now I'm talking about the script, the story, the discussion, the
12:02pressure. It's not possible in our house. So after that film, I will go and watch it
12:10in the theatre. So if an average audience would react, they would say they would say they would
12:16say they would say they would say they would say they would say they would say they would
12:20go and watch it in the film. So nevertheless, just clarifying. I have nothing to do with
12:27his work and I don't ask him also. So that's how it works.
12:33I think you will love it.
12:39I think you will have opinions on it. Yeah, you will like it but you will have opinions
12:50on it. Is what I think. Nice.
12:52I don't have opinions on it. I don't have opinions on it.
12:57In a good way. I think a lot of people are going to walk away with a lot of opinions in
13:01their mind which is also a great thing. I like that. Good job.
13:04Good job. You know, if you get to speak to this film, you want to talk about this cinema,
13:09that you talk about it, you talk about it, you talk about it with the car, bike,
13:12you talk about it, you talk about it, you discuss it, you know, debate about it.
13:15Yeah, yeah. If that happens, we're fantastic. But cinema actually, you know, I tell
13:18you that my opinion is very important. There is a lot of basic opinions about cinema in
13:22There are a lot of basic audiences.
13:23We have seen a lot of Disney cinema in the cinema.
13:26I can't take tension even in Cinderella.
13:29I like watching animated things.
13:31No brainer.
13:32In the love story, in the interval point,
13:35I'm talking about that type.
13:37That's the basic audience.
13:39Cinderella's story is now doing stepmother.
13:43Next time, because now there are marches.
13:47So I can't deal with any of these cliffhangers, none of this.
13:50So Ellie, straight to Wikipedia story,
13:52it will be peaceful.
13:54Yeah.
13:55So that type of audience.
13:58Probably below average, because even everybody else will be like,
14:02okay, I'd like to see the film loan, suspense, whatever the director wants you to feel.
14:08He feels like it.
14:09But I don't want all of that.
14:10I want to do everything beforehand.
14:12And that takes us to, yes.
14:14Because you know,
14:15tension, suspense, suspense,
14:18we're going to do a date with our family.
14:20We're going to show you a bit of a plan.
14:22I will show you a bit of a horror movie.
14:24Oh!
14:25No.
14:26So if you are not,
14:27I'll show you a bit of a cow glint.
14:28So I will show you a bit of a horror movie.
14:29No.
14:30And in the theater,
14:31I have a couple seats.
14:33So there will be a hand rest.
14:34You can tell me,
14:36Mom, Mom, you start and you start.
14:38You don't know how to do it.
14:40So, let me show you.
14:42I'm sorry.
14:44There's a jump scare on the screen.
14:46I'm sorry.
14:48I'm sorry.
14:50I'm sorry.
14:58I became the daughter for him.
15:00He didn't ask for that.
15:02Oh, my God.
15:04Oh, my God.
15:06Effect.
15:08Yes.
15:10Fact or Stereotype.
15:12So, you know,
15:14collated by our team.
15:16So, you know,
15:18you have guns.
15:20So, in general,
15:22you have a statement.
15:24Oh!
15:26Oh!
15:28So cute.
15:30Anyway,
15:32I'll give you a question.
15:34It's a fact or stereotype.
15:36And you will only speak with your guns.
15:38So,
15:40the stereotype
15:42I will shoot you.
15:44I will shoot you.
15:46That's right.
15:48What's the fact?
15:50Okay.
15:51I'd like Deekshidgaru also to...
15:52Yeah.
15:54I don't know.
15:56I'll start with you.
15:58First love is the purest.
16:00Fact or Stereotype?
16:02Stereotype.
16:04First love is what?
16:06Is it the purest?
16:08Oh, okay.
16:10I mean, it's not a question.
16:12Statement is the purest.
16:14Okay.
16:15First love is the purest.
16:16Fact or Stereotype.
16:17I don't know what love is.
16:19I don't know.
16:21I disagree with this.
16:23But I completely agree.
16:25First love is the purest.
16:27I think maybe it's the excitement
16:29and all that makes you remember things
16:32but it's not the purest one.
16:34That nostalgia is pure.
16:36Yeah, nostalgia is pure.
16:37The last one is the purest.
16:39The last one is the purest.
16:40I like that.
16:41I like that.
16:42Nice.
16:43I like that.
16:45About love and everything
16:46and the last one being the purest and all that.
16:48It's coming for you.
16:49You should.
16:50You should.
16:51All the cringe questions.
16:52I know.
16:53So that everybody can titify me in the comments.
16:55But anyway.
16:57Men are logical
16:58and women are emotional in relationships.
17:00Rahul Garu.
17:01Me?
17:02No, Rashmika.
17:03Me?
17:04What is your name?
17:05What is your name?
17:06Stereotype.
17:07Stereotype.
17:08Person.
17:09It's a little logical or a little emotional.
17:11I don't know.
17:12I've seen so many women who are purely practical and logical.
17:15I've seen so many men who are extremely emotional.
17:17I think that there are circumstances.
17:20There are circumstances.
17:22There are circumstances.
17:24I don't think it has anything to do with gender.
17:26Right.
17:27Rashmika Garu.
17:28Jealousy is equal to love.
17:30How?
17:31Yeah.
17:32Now is the time to take out the guns.
17:34Then you have to.
17:35That's it.
17:36I don't understand that.
17:37So it's a.
17:38Stereotype.
17:39It's a.
17:40I don't relate.
17:41It's a part of love.
17:42It's not equal love.
17:43It's a.
17:44No.
17:45It's a.
17:46It's a.
17:47It's a part of love.
17:48It's a part of love.
17:49It's not equal love.
17:50No.
17:51It's a.
17:52It's not all love.
17:53All love.
17:54It's a part of one part.
17:55Love is so many things that you feel for one person.
17:57Correct.
17:58Correct.
17:59It's like a mixture of God knows how many things.
18:02Yeah.
18:03Yeah.
18:04Yeah.
18:05Yeah.
18:06It's a very mean statement that people keep saying.
18:07Yeah.
18:08True that.
18:09I just.
18:10How?
18:11Why?
18:12How?
18:13How are they just saying.

18:38No.
18:39No.
18:40No.
18:41I think women suffer more internally than men. I don't know if that is stereotypical, that statement that I have given, but I completely disagree with the fact that people say men suffer more than women when a relationship is broken or whatever. That is not true.
19:07Now, amma ilakanna, abbaayilu eko-possessive. Dikshidgaru, meir chappan. Googly, I am you choosing vimal yadigat, choose Sarah.
19:16Welcome again. Because you were seeing him, I was like, okay, question for him.
19:23Amma ilakanna, abbaayilu eko-possessive.
19:27No, and it's, I always believe it depends on person to person.
19:32So, it depends. You can't generalize it.
19:39So, would you be more possessive than your girlfriend?
19:42I don't know. I have to meet a girlfriend first for that.
19:45Baba, you choose a girlfriend.
19:47Dikshidgaru, girlfriend.
19:49I think he is not telling us but he has a girlfriend.
19:55I don't know. I don't know.
19:57I would promise you.
19:59I would say it. Why will I not say it?
20:00Well done. Proud of you.
20:02I will promise you, girls are so happy.
20:04I don't know.
20:05I will promise you.
20:07No, sir, we are the naughty uncle.
20:10Why are you married?
20:12You are married.
20:14You are not a boomer uncle.
20:16You are not a boyfriend.
20:18You are not a boyfriend.
20:20You are not a girlfriend.
20:22You are not a girlfriend.
20:24No, girlfriend is one of the best films in my career.
20:28Samantha Lee is out there.
20:30Abba is going to do a break-up.
20:34Rahul is going to do a break-up.
20:36Abba is going to do a break-up.
20:40I think I am going to agree with that.
20:42It is obviously not applicable in every case.
20:48Like I said,
20:50fortunately or unfortunately or whatever it is,
20:54however you look at it,
20:55the end of any relationship in our society is marriage.
20:58And I generally notice that
21:00girls face more pressure if the family doesn't accept.
21:06If you accept the family,
21:08if you accept the family,
21:10there is an echo pressure.
21:12Of course, that pressure is a range of pressure.
21:16Of course,
21:17in any point,
21:18when they are in the chat and
21:21they are in the chat.
21:23In other words,
21:24they remain afraid of talking about it.
21:26They are afraid of being a girlfriend.
21:27Now,
21:28they have a little bit of confidence.
21:30The infinite kind of confidence in both of us
21:31and they don't feel like that.
21:32There are no expectations in those houses.
21:33Even in the very few families,
21:35they have a little confidence in those houses.
21:36They also have a figure of confidence in each other.
21:37They have a job like them.
21:39Imagine a little heart cinema juicer, there is this beautiful dialogue where the girl says
21:45if the girl decides to decide what to do.
21:48So, if the girl doesn't like it, the girl doesn't like it.
21:51The girl doesn't like it, there is pressure, there is almost a little hands tied
21:56to the girl who doesn't like it, the girl doesn't like it.
22:00So, in a weird backhanded way, it's true.
22:03Not for the reason that most people think that stereotype is true.
22:06So, yeah.
22:07And in quotes, again, this goes into stereotype territory.
22:11I definitely agree.
22:15If you look at it,
22:16the girl and the girl will break up and break up.
22:20So, if you handle it, you don't like it.
22:22When the girl comes to this drama,
22:25many people think that they are completely checked in the relationship.
22:29There is no balance.
22:30There is no balance.
22:31But she doesn't say break up.
22:33That's what she knows.
22:35She doesn't like it, but she doesn't have a problem.
22:38Oh, see you, Shithgaru?
22:39Oh, no, no. I was the same person.
22:41Oh! Yeah, yeah, yeah.
22:42But I was relating. What?
22:43You can't say break up.
22:44You can't say break up.
22:45You can't say that.
22:46You can't say that.
22:47You can't wait.
22:48You can't say that.
22:49In my first relationship,
22:51you can check out.
22:52You can check out.
22:53You can check out.
22:54You can check out.
22:55Okay.
22:56But I don't have any breakups.
22:57So, I'm like,
22:58Okay.
22:59As long as she doesn't break up with me,
23:00I'm her boyfriend.
23:01So, finally,
23:02I have no idea.
23:03Yeah.
23:04Yeah.
23:05Well, you are saying this.
23:06Wow.
23:07Wow.
23:08So,
23:09So,
23:10So,
23:11So,
23:12They will soon start.
23:13Actually,
23:1425 years ago.
23:15So,
23:16They have reached an age where they'll be in relationships.
23:17You know.
23:18But,
23:19So,
23:20So,
23:21So,
23:22So,
23:23So,
23:24So,
23:25So,
23:26So,
23:27So,
23:28So,
23:29So,
23:30So,
23:31So,
23:32People think that,
23:34This is how it is.
23:35After a point,
23:36So,
23:37So,
23:38So,
23:39So,
23:40So,
23:41So,
23:42So,
23:43So,
23:44So,
23:45So,
23:46So,
23:47So,
23:48So,
23:49So,
23:50So,
23:51So,
23:52So,
23:53So,
23:54So,
23:55So,
23:56So,
23:57So,
23:58So,
23:59So,
24:08And,
24:09So,
24:11So,
24:12So,
24:13So,
24:14So,
24:15So,
24:16So,
24:17But I feel like that honeymoon face has never ended.
24:20Wow!
24:21We are going to tell you.
24:23You are going to tell me.
24:25You are going to tell me.
24:26You are bored of me.
24:28I am going to tell you.
24:30I am going to tell you.
24:32I just created that.
24:34And I left it.
24:36It was a spark.
24:38Okay.
24:39Okay.
24:40Okay.
24:41Okay.
24:42Okay.
24:43Okay.
24:44Okay.
24:45Give me my mother.
24:49You are like your mother.
24:51Tell me your little girl.
24:53She has to give her on the way her.
24:55Yes, my mother has to give her.
24:57If you have my mother.
25:00Stereotype or factor?
25:02Depends on which stage of relationship is.
25:05and I feel like once they're married or I got into trouble for saying something
25:14like this in an interview I always said that women or men can change for each
25:21other if they truly want to and if they love each other enough the change will
25:27happen it's not like one has to change another but they'll just merge to become
25:31one person right where no more does it feel like an effort right so it purely
25:37depends on the stage so naa kai the life loo a stage loo nao relationships loo
25:47a stage loo nao daan paranga it depends naa kaampashtu naa
25:51effect pitta pote ain't yeah I'm manam love language enter it
25:54manam love express chiese vidana maari pothen exactly the way you express is
25:59you in the moment a put on the screen do you feel less loved so
26:02less loved no definitely not
26:04if you need to check in an interview and ask questions
26:08you're almost arch for it
26:12he said you control of love is that a sign of love
26:17I will do that.
26:24Most unhealthy thing.
26:27Yeah.
26:28I think that's how the end starts.
26:33Correct.
26:34Beginning of the end.
26:36If you survive a crisis,
26:40that starts to be a few days.
26:44If there's a dissatisfaction,
26:47it will be a few days.
26:50And I feel like,
26:52when it starts,
26:56you can talk about anything,
26:58you can talk about anything,
27:00you can talk about anything,
27:02you can talk about anything.
27:04Right.
27:05It started.
27:06And the problem is,
27:07women also,
27:08it's not like women does it only for men,
27:13or men only do it for women.
27:15So, it's those things.
27:17And those things become toxic over,
27:19over time.
27:20Long time.
27:21Yeah.
27:22Rashmika,
27:23I think she'll make a good girlfriend.
27:24You're single, no?
27:25Right now?
27:26How did you make a good girlfriend?
27:28Such a mature girl.
27:29I am a good girlfriend.
27:31She's a very good girlfriend.
27:33Oh?
27:34Okay.
27:35I didn't say anything.
27:36Well, the girlfriend.
27:37Yeah.
27:38Yeah.
27:39Exactly.
27:40Film me the focus.
27:41Neeru.
27:42Neeru.
27:43Film chodhandi.
27:44She's a bad.
27:46Rashmika Garu,
27:47how excited are you about this Deepavali?
27:50I am very, very excited about this Deepavali.
27:56In the country, you're specifically asking about this Deepavali?
28:06I am not surprised.
28:09I am very excited about Deepavali.
28:11Okay.
28:12Jaya Vijayi Bhava.
28:13Rahul Daru,
28:14Considering what a huge star Rasmika is, did you feel burdened?
28:21I also feel good, okay.
28:22What?
28:23No, no, what?
28:24What?
28:25You are a big star.
28:26I don't have any facial expressions.
28:28So, did you actually feel she is really one of the top stars in this country today.
28:35So, did you feel burdened working with somebody of her stature?
28:39I feel pressure in one time.
28:43What is it?
28:44I was looking at Rasmika's first day of shoot.
28:48Girlfriend's first day of shoot.
28:50Animal release in 7-8 days.
28:54First time.
28:56I feel pressure in one time.
28:58I'm looking at it every day.
29:00Five hundred crores, six hundred crores, seven hundred crores.
29:03I said,
29:05Pushpa is also hit in Hindi.
29:08So, already Pan-India star.
29:10Animal release.
29:11Even in Bollywood, there is a big blockbuster.
29:14So,
29:15One of my doubts is,
29:18I thought,
29:19How big of a Pan-India hit?
29:22Next cinema,
29:23I felt like I was doing something real, rooted,
29:26in some places.
29:27I thought,
29:28I was doing something real.
29:29I was doing something real,
29:30i had to go to college,
29:31my mother,
29:32your family background.
29:34I was living at home,
29:35and though all the time she was doing something,
29:37didn't have to go to dress.
29:38I don't know.
29:39I thought,
29:40costume designer Shraviya to be discussed.
29:44I thought this was an animal cinema release, so I had a fear that I was starting to start.
29:47I was hit when I was hit when I was not present and when I was not aesthetic and I was not aesthetic,
29:53I was doubted that I was not the same.
29:58No, this is clearly a conscious, creative choice.
30:01This cinema is real and rooted, so I had a fear that I was starting to start.
30:06I genuinely felt this pressure a lot.
30:09I remember Shraviya also telling me, I used to tell her,
30:14I used to tell her, she used to go shopping,
30:16and she used to go shopping, and she used to go shopping,
30:19and she used to go shopping,
30:22and I was like, first day, I was going to do costume trials,
30:24because she was travelling around the country promoting animal,
30:27and then she came straight to her site, first day of shoot.
30:29That morning she landed, came straight to her site.
30:31So Shraviya said,
30:33I was ready to get a proper hero and type dress in two dresses.
30:38I was like, Rachmika, you can see this dress first.
30:41It was the reaction that she was wearing,
30:45and that's when she was wearing some dresses in the cinema,
30:47and that dress would be seen.
30:50And as it was like, when I was shooting,
30:51when I was on the first day of shoot,
30:53and when she was afraid of this plain dress,
30:55and when she was wearing some kind of plain dresses,
30:57and when she was wearing a lot of confidence,
31:00Do you think you are the same thing?
31:01Juju, I didn't even know.
31:04So all this happened, so I was like,
31:05Hey, how are you doing it?
31:06How are you doing it?
31:07How are you doing it?
31:08How are you doing it?
31:10It was the first day in the morning,
31:13in the caravan, I was like, Shravi,
31:15I was like, strategically,
31:18I was going to do the first rendu dresses for Rashmika.
31:20Rashmika looked at me and said,
31:22Okay, this is for the first scene.
31:23Okay, okay, okay.
31:25I just said, Shravi, if you don't mind,
31:27I just want to discuss the scene with the director.
31:29Shravi left.
31:31She looked at me and she said,
31:33This character shouldn't be dressed like this.
31:36You should show yourself.
31:37I was like,
31:38I am not kidding.
31:39You are the genius of this.
31:41You are the genius of this.
31:42You are the genius of this.
31:43You are the genius of this.
31:44You should have to present the character for this film.
31:48I am the director and I am the director.
31:50I am the director.
31:51She is like,
31:52This is how she should look.
31:53Okay, this girl is smart.
31:54She understands narrative.
31:56She understands character.
31:57as she understands stories.
31:59Rasmika will tell you how good Deekshita is.
32:01You know, he is such a warm person, Deekshita.
32:06But...
32:10My conversation started, no?
32:14But the intensity,
32:17intensity and also emotions,
32:21layers,
32:23that portrait,
32:25we have a lot of actors,
32:28we have a lot of captures.
32:30But the audience,
32:32we have a lot of emotions,
32:34we have a lot of discomfort.
32:37But in this case,
32:39when he is feeling something,
32:41it is like a transparent glass.
32:44Audience will feel the same thing.
32:46And I was his first audience in terms of performance.
32:49And I was like,
32:51this man is just
32:54giving me,
32:55making me feel his layers of emotions.
32:57Lovely.
32:58In partnership with all these,
33:00that's what I said.
33:02But it's just,
33:03it's a,
33:04it's a,
33:05I think that I was watching everyone's cinema,
33:07I was watching everyone's cinema,
33:09but I was watching it,
33:10and I was watching it,
33:11and I was watching it,
33:12and I was watching it.
33:13In this case,
33:14there's emotional intensity,
33:16it bursts with life.
33:18I was watching it,
33:19and I was watching it,
33:20and I was watching it,
33:21and I was watching it,
33:22and I was watching it,
33:23and I was watching it,
33:24and I was watching it.
33:25But,
33:26everybody's going to come out and say,
33:28my god,
33:29both of them are amazing in the film.
33:30That I'm so confident of.
33:31Because,
33:32I don't know if you're watching it,
33:33you're watching it.
33:34What was it like for you,
33:35working with her?
33:36All right.
33:37I was like,
33:38I'm like,
33:39I'm like,
33:40I'm like,
33:41I'm like,
33:42I'll try it.
33:44But,
33:45again,
33:46the artists,
33:47they're also comforted,
33:48and when I came to the sets,
33:49and when I saw Rashmika for the first time,
33:51I really felt like,
33:53stardom,
33:55I didn't feel any of that.
33:571%
33:581%
33:59So,
34:00I didn't feel any of that.
34:01I didn't feel any of that.
34:02I didn't feel any of that.
34:03I didn't feel any of that.
34:04I didn't feel any of that.
34:05I was doing 2-3 films at a time.
34:08But,
34:09she was doing some 10 films at a time,
34:10I guess.
34:11And,
34:12I didn't see her sleep.
34:13I think we all know this.
34:14Sleepless.
34:15And,
34:16she doesn't eat anything.
34:18And,
34:19sometimes,
34:20she and her,
34:21she'll make everyone eat.
34:23She loves to feed everyone.
34:25I do have a tendency.
34:26And,
34:27she doesn't eat,
34:28so,
34:29all this is there.
34:30And,
34:31one thing shocked is,
34:32somewhere,
34:33we are talking,
34:34we are shooting,
34:352 o'clock,
34:36that accident sequence.
34:37The very beginning,
34:38accident sequence.
34:39We are shooting,
34:40and it extended till 2 o'clock.
34:41And,
34:42she's talking to her trainer,
34:43to come trainer,
34:44at 2 o'clock,
34:45or 3 o'clock,
34:46somewhat.
34:47I'm like,
34:48mad or what?
34:49And,
34:50she's saying,
34:51no, no, no, no,
34:52I'll go work out,
34:53and then,
34:54go to another set,
34:55not sleep.
34:56Another set.
34:57So,
34:58Hesham is actually also,
34:59one of my favourite composers.
35:00So,
35:01what would you do,
35:02Hesham,
35:03how did you compose this movie?
35:04When I approached Hesham,
35:06I didn't release Hesham.
35:08I didn't release Hesham.
35:10In that cinema,
35:11I thought,
35:12the first single bite,
35:14it hadn't gone big,
35:15or become a big hit,
35:16or anything like that.
35:17At that point,
35:18I had heard work from,
35:20a private album,
35:22and then,
35:23a small cinema.
35:24At that point,
35:25there was a particular song,
35:26and,
35:27you know,
35:28you know,
35:29you know,
35:30you know,
35:31you know,
35:32you know,
35:33you know,
35:34you know,
35:35you know,
35:36you know,
35:37also had kind of music,
35:38a bit of music,
35:39and that was,
35:39the reason for the music,
35:40then,
35:41the music of Darshana was hit,
35:42a little amazing movie.
35:43Darshana,
35:44and that song,
35:45suddenly,
35:46is the sensation,
35:47is the music.
35:48It was the music.
35:50And I remember,
35:51we were talking about,
35:53the music of Darshana,
35:54whatever and all that,
35:56and as you know,
35:57we were saying,
35:58you know,
35:59Just Mundo, Kushi Haanana got released, so many musical blockbusters, albums, so many hits.
36:06So, suddenly we signed almost a newcomer and by the time my cinema work started, I was already working with one of the hottest musical talents in the south.
36:15So, it was a very interesting experience for me. He is a guy with so much soul. He is almost like purity. He is almost like a baby.
36:24There is a lot of emotion. There is a soul and I think that soul is always intact.
36:31I think that there is a purity in music and magic. That purity is almost intact.
36:42Finally, what did you find in the theatres?
36:46It is an intense, honest, emotional experience.
36:52I think that we are able to understand our partners better.
36:58I have not been able to do this in the past, but I have not been able to do this in the past, but I have not been able to do this in the past.
37:03I think that we can understand each other better and understand each other.
37:08And more importantly, I think that we have a massive personal connection in this cinema.
37:15I think that we are able to understand each other.
37:17Geetha Arts is a legacy production house.
37:19And in this country, some of the best films are in this country.
37:24And in cinema history, the name Geetha Arts carries such a lot of respect and greatness, I would say.
37:37So, Elantio's production house, me film, especially The Girlfriend, your script, and along with Dheeraj Mughalini Entertainment.
37:46So, how has it been working with a legacy like this?
37:49In this intense personal story, in this intense personal film, we have seen Geetha Arts on the Banner, Dheeraj Mughalini Entertainment and Geetha Arts,
37:58from the beginning, they have been so supportive of this story.
38:01And that these stories are important in the story.
38:02These stories are important in the story.
38:03These stories are important in the story.
38:04I will never tell Arvindar.
38:05These stories are important in the story.
38:07And Vidyagaru, first-first-first story, I think she's been one of the champions for this script.
38:14That no, this story is the story.
38:16This story is the story, Vidyagaru.
38:18And Dheeraj Mughalini, in Japan, first stage of the war, in various circumstances.
38:22As I said, the script is set up in Dheeraj Mughalini.
38:26So, yeah, I have that greed.
38:29In this cinema, one of the main producers, one of the main producers, one of the main producers, one of the financial might,
38:37one of the producers through Baiti.
38:39That's why I have reached the point.
38:41So, that we are very, very happy.
38:43Now, if I choose filmography, I am so proud to have the girlfriend as one such.
38:48You know, and it's not generally that you are confident enough that everyone will be able to deliver this film as such.
38:58I know that Geetha Arts is there for the safe cushioning.
39:04I know Rahul is there who, you know, has these emotions and respect for people's emotions.
39:11So, I have a co-star who's, like, just pushing me to do my best.
39:19So, it encourages me to do a film like The Girlfriend.
39:25So, for me, that's why I keep saying, emphasizing on the fact that The Girlfriend is a very important story to be told.
39:34And choose it appadu, choose in the end, it's almost like you can also do this.
39:44And not too.
39:45I have a feeling.
39:46If I choose it appadu, this day, I can't help it.
39:50And if I perform it appadu, I can't help it.
39:53So, this is the girlfriend for me.
39:57I think after the first or second schedule, I will call Arvind sir and I will call you for the next time.
40:06I will call you for the next time.
40:07I will call you for the next time.
40:08And he will call you for the next time.
40:10And he is like, no, no, no.
40:14He kind of liked what he saw.
40:16He is the only producer till now, during the shoot of the film, who gave me an advance for the next film.
40:44Wow.
40:45Hey, congratulations.
40:46Yeah, he is the only producer.
40:48See, I will call you the same as an artist.
40:50Because we all have that fear as an artist when we come from a background where we don't have a cinema background.
40:56Correct.
40:57So, we are like, what is next, what is the future.
40:59So, we will call you the same thing.
41:00We will call you the same thing.
41:01We will call you the same thing.
41:02We will call you the same thing.
41:03We will call you the same thing.
41:04We will call you the same thing.
41:05No, there is a way.
41:06If you work hard and if you are consistent, you will meet people.
41:10And also, when Allorwin sir gave me an advance, it's not just that.
41:13It's not just an advance for me.
41:14It was a lot of hope and like confidence on myself that, okay.
41:20And then, when I came out of the vital approach.
41:24I have a lot of people acting.
41:26And it's, okay, thanks.
41:28But coming from a man like him, like who has been in the industry for a longer time and you have seen everyone.
41:37Coming from him, it really meant a lot for me during that time.
41:40Like I really needed it.
41:41So, I am very, very thankful for this opportunity.
41:43Interestingly, nobody, none of us come from a film background.
41:47Yeah, yeah.
41:48So, first generation industry.
41:50Yeah.
41:51So, Vintun.
41:52Create a legacy.
41:53Come on, baby.
41:55Vintun director Sandharaki, I want to call you the same thing.
41:59I want to call you the same thing.
42:00I want to call you the same thing.
42:01Geethe Arts already advanced.
42:03So, if you look at interesting scripts,
42:05if you look at Geethe Arts,
42:06if you look at the producer,
42:07tell you the same script.
42:09Oh, nice.
42:11Smart.
42:12So, Theatres' law, girlfriend,
42:14anything you should do.
42:17The girlfriend film law,
42:19a lot of matters that I am actually touched upon.
42:24But the most important and the most triggering topic is,
42:29is he or she your type?
42:35That's something which we have never so far said in cinema,
42:41or anywhere in our country.
42:43I could be completely wrong,
42:45but in this case,
42:48my film is one strong point.
42:54Compatibility,
42:58it's something,
43:01how do you know if that person is right for you?
43:06How do you know if this person is right for you or not too?
43:09Because we have met so many people
43:12and at some point,
43:13you are in a relationship with them
43:15or friendship with them
43:16or any of the things.
43:19This story is also not just about relationships.
43:23There are friendships in the film.
43:25So, Daan Gurunchi Guda,
43:27we have spoken a lot about.
43:28So, it's like I said,
43:31it's going to trigger a lot of thoughts.
43:33It's going to build conversations after watching the film.
43:37There are a lot of people,
43:39they are still thinking about,
43:42they are still processing what they watched in the film.
43:45So, it's a very thought triggering film.
43:49And I feel like sometimes when you are dealing with a lot in your life and everything,
43:55you come to cinema and you want to enter into a different world.
43:58Correct.
43:59Now, here's a film which is so real and so rooted that it provokes these little thoughts that you have.
44:07I am not saying our cinema is something which is like completely different where, you know,
44:13it's going to be like action and dance and all of that.
44:18But our film is a very important film to be addressed or spoken about.
44:25So, the question is,
44:27Okay, dare.
44:28So, generally,
44:29there is a relationship with you and where you are going to the theatre,
44:31the artist,
44:32the artist and the artist,
44:34and that,
44:35I will give you a dare.
44:40Go to the theatre, watch this film and while coming back, I am very, very sure you guys will have a serious conversation about your relationship.
44:49Which is a very important conversation.
44:50Very important conversation to have.
44:51I think right outside, if they keep some coffee shop or anything, it's very good.
44:57They'll be very good.
44:58Like right outside the theatre.
45:01Like, you know, let's go home, but before that, let's talk about it.
45:04Let's talk about this conversation.
45:05So that's it.
45:06Happy Deepakali, everybody.
45:08The Girlfriend, only in theatres on November 7th.
