Director Raju Murugan highlighted the film’s social impact, aiming to raise awareness against kidney theft. Murugan also reflected on the evolving role of filmmakers, now deeply involved in promotions, and thanked the cast and crew for their dedication.

Actor Sasikumar spoke with confidence at the Thanksgiving event of ‘My Lord’. He said a good director and a good producer should never fail, and that is why he personally travelled to many places to promote the film. Many people were worried after seeing the first-day box office numbers, but he was not afraid. He strongly believes that a good film will take its own time to reach the audience. He remembered how ‘Ayothi’ became successful only after the first week and said this film too will grow in the same way.

Cinema that creates social change

As per Nakkheeran, Sasikumar also spoke about the vision of the producerr, who always wants every film to bring some positive change to society. He shared examples from earlier films. ‘Ayothi’ helped start a scheme that gives financial support to take the bodies of deceased people back to their hometowns. ‘Nandhan’ created awareness and helped social community leaders hoist flags in village panchayats without trouble. In the same way, he believes ‘My Lord’ will create awareness and help prevent kidney theft crimes.

Raju Murugan on changing times and promotions

Director Raju Murugan thanked the audience for understanding the film and sharing their emotional responses with him. He expressed special gratitude to Ambedkumar for being the main reason behind the film and to Sasikumar for carrying the project with full faith from the beginning till release.
