I think I have a fantastic role and yes, it is a Prashanth Neel film, who wouldn’t want to work with him.”

Further, showering praise on director Prashanth Neel, Prithviraj added, “He’s so confident with his craft, in narrating, and when an actor comes up with a new idea or if you want to walk to Prashanth for a scene you want, and if you're able to convince him, he will change everything around you."

The actor continued, "He will change the plan of shoot entirely around the new idea that you have pitched. He's got such a solid command on his craft and that is one of the most enjoyable things about working with Prashanth. He likes being surprised.”
