Since Friday is a muhurthanaal, our show will be telecast for two hours. I am certain that the audiences will have a week full of entertainment with twists and turns while witnessing dance, comedy, and a myriad of sentiments.” The director also adds that this will be a sangamam episode. “Artistes from Amman 3, Abhi Tailor and Namma Madurai Sisters also took part as guests in this special wedding week celebration.” Devendran says that the cast was cooperative and understanding of the tight schedule. “All the actors worked hard throughout the eight days.
