Chennai, Oct 18 (NationPress) Acclaimed music composer Santhosh Narayanan has praised the young talent Dhruv Vikram for his outstanding performance in director Mari Selvaraj’s newly launched sports drama 'Bison', expressing that it seems as though the entire film industry has united in blessing him with this opportunity.
In a heartfelt post on his X timeline, Santhosh addressed the core team behind 'Bison', which includes director Pa Ranjith, who produced the film, Mari Selvaraj, the director, and lead actor Dhruv Vikram. He reminisced, "In 2011, I found myself in tears in a hospital, filled with dreams yet facing seemingly insurmountable challenges."
"Fast forward to 2018 - that filmmaker has become one of India’s finest, producing one of the most remarkable Tamil films ever. I remember standing with Director Ram in tears, hoping the film would be embraced by audiences, and it did, shaking the political landscape and marking the birth of a new legend in direction."
"By 2025, these two filmmakers reunite, now carrying the weight of accusations regarding caste politics and other controversies. Then comes #BisonKaalamadan - a true reflection of what these two visionaries aspire to showcase in our world. I watched the film with tears of hope, immensely proud of you, my dear ones @beemji and @mari_selvaraj. The emotional hug between you and Mari after the press show symbolizes what you should always strive to uphold, Ranjith."
Santhosh revealed that he often engages in intense discussions with Pa Ranjith, but his aim has always been to keep their vision intact.
"Indeed, I argue frequently, feeling agitated at times, but my only goal is to maintain clarity in our mission. Bison felt like a warm embrace to me," he noted.
To Dhruv Vikram, the son of renowned Tamil star Chiyaan Vikram, Santhosh remarked, "Dhruv, your performance was remarkable. It truly felt as if all of cinema rallied to bless you with this role. We are proud of your achievements, and I’m certain your father is celebrating your success right now."
He also commended the film’s music composer Nivas K Prasanna, stating, "I am thrilled that the world will witness @nivaskprasanna’s talent in this remarkable film. More exciting projects are on the horizon. For now, pichita Mame."
