While talking to about how an epic like 'PS: 2' got made finally by filmmaker Mani Ratnam, the actor mentioned that the film found its journey through time. The director had earlier attempted to adapt the film from Kalki's eponymous novel.

Earlier, to think about a film like this to be mounted from the point of view of a regional language was not easy but films like 'Baahubali' and 'KGF' paved the way for huge films to be presented to bigger film markets and audiences."

He further mentioned: "Today, people are more aware of our work or our stories and eagerly waiting for the films to come out of either of the South Indian film industries and this is a very good time for us to bring the Indian epics to life as we are getting better budgets, the best of technic from all over India and best artistes. It is the right time for the Indian epics to be made."
