Bro emerged as a trendsetter for completing the project in a short span. “It is we who decide how many days a project should be wrapped up.” Samuthirakani said.

Bro is releasing in theatres on 28 July amidst expectations. It is the remake of the Tamil film Vinodhaya Sitham (2021) which again was helmed by Samuthirakani.

In response to rules laid down by the FEFSI (Film Employees Federation of South India), he said “Is it so? Since I put myself here in Hyderabad, I lost track of the developments there.”

Samuthirakani said he chanced upon exploring Pawan Kalyan’s personality as a leader besides having known him as an actor.

Samuthirakani said his vast experience made him complete Bro on time. He recalled directing 3,000 episode-daily soap Jhansi, starring yesteryear star Radhika.

“I came to the film industry as an assistant director in 1994. Since then, I took up whatever came my way. Hit or flop, I took everything in my stride,” he signed off.
