Vijay Milton, a multi-faceted star in Tamil cinema known for his skills in both cinematography and direction, is set to deliver 'Mazhai Pidikkatha Manithan,' featuring Vijay Antony in the lead role. The film is slated for a grand theatrical release on August 2. In an exclusive chat with ETimes, Vijay Milton shared some insights about the film ahead of its release.On giving new looks to Vijay Antony, Sathyaraj, Sarathkumar, and Saranya Ponvannan in 'Mazhai Pidikkatha Manithan,' Vijay Milton revealed, "I always aim to give a fresh look to stars because I want them to be remembered for my film, and fans should recognize the film through their appearances. Working with experienced stars is a special task since they have often tried similar things in their previous films. I figured out Vijay Antony and Sarathkumar sir's looks for 'Mazhai Pidikkatha Manithan' easily. However, Sathyaraj sir and Saranya Ponvannan ma'am's looks were the most challenging. Sathyaraj sir has acted in over 250 films, and for Saranya Ponvannan ma'am, we added a Burmese connection to her character to give her a fresh look. I'm happy now as their looks are grabbing special attention.""Every character has a swag factor, and I am more conscious of delivering a distinct film. Not only in the lead stars' appearances, but I have also attempted a different way of storytelling. I have set aside my past experiences to approach 'Mazhai Pidikkatha Manithan' with a fresh perspective, as if I were an emerging star. I hope it will impress the audience," Vijay Milton shared, expressing his excitement ahead of the film's release.
