Says Sasi, 'I wanted to try something away from the regular hero-based films and approached Vijay Antony.
He is no mass hero. He readily agreed to work in my movie'.Asked about Pichaikaran, he, says, 'The script is inspired by a short story that I had read in a magazine some time ago is based on a real-life incident. I had the basic structure in my mind, and then I improvised as the project progressed'.
'Seeing the title, we would think that the story revolves around a beggar; but actually about a millionaire. It was Vijay who suggested the title to me'.
