Surya says that he has strained very much for 7am Arivu for the sake of the audience & fans
7am Arivu is the film which has Surya and Shruti Hassan in the lead roles. This film is directed by A.R Murugadoss. The audio CD and the trailer of the film was released yesterday evening at Chennai Trade Centre in Nandambakkam.
Surya speaking on this occasion said, “When A.R Murugadoss met me, he said that we should not do ordinary entertaining films and it should be of a different genre. After Ghajini we are joining hands for the second time. Because of this there will be lots of expectations among the people. So there was a compulsion that we have to narrate a different thing in this film. I have strained a lot for the sake of my fans and audience. People are still worshipping Bodhidharma. In order to give life to the role, I underwent strenuous workouts to get my six packs. This film will be an important one in Tamil cinema. “


Director A.R Murugadoss while speaking said, “After directing Hindi Ghajini, I got lots of offers in Hindi. But I came to Tamil because of the affection I am having for it. In 7am Arivu there are lot of things beyond cinema. The opening 15 minutes will be astounding. One Crore has been sent for one minute. 15 Crores were spent for 15 minutes sequences. This was possible because of the producer Udhayanidhi Stalin. Surya has strained himself very much in getting his six packs and had acted in the climax sequences. This film will be a pride to the Tamilians living throughout the world. “
Actors Karthi, Dhanush, Jai, actress Shruti Hassan, music composer Harris Jayaraj, producers Udhayanidhi Stalin and Dayanidhi Azhagiri participated in this event.

There was also cultural programme featuring actress Anjali, Lakshmi Rai and Rukmani.
