'Glad to lead film that portrays strong female character': Jyotika-Suriya share excitement on 'PonMagal Vandhal' release

'PonMagal Vandhal' is streaming on Amazon Prime Video.

Jyotika starrer PonMagal Vandhal is finally streaming on Amazon Prime Video. The movie is the first South flick which took the digital route amid lockdown crisis. The film is directed by debutant JJ Fredrick and produced by Suriya and Jyotika's home banner 2D Entertainment. Along with Jyotika, the film also stars Parthiban, K.Bhagyaraj, Thyagarajan, Pratap Poten and Pandiarajan in the lead roles.

Sharing her excitement upon the release of PonMagal Vandhal on Amazon Prime Video, Jyotika stated, "We are excited that Ponmagal Vandhal is the first Tamil film set to be launched on direct-to-stream on May 29, 2020. Each actor looks for challenging roles that take their acting to greater heights and my character Venba has brought out the best in me. I am glad to have led a film that portrays a strong female character who will go to great lengths to seek justice. With Amazon Prime Video's extensive reach, Tamil film lovers, as well as a global audience, shall be kept at the edge of their seats."

While Suriya said, "Every actor has films that they have invested a large part of themselves in. This is one such film for Jyotika and it excited her to be working with five veteran actors in a single film. Initially to see a young director bringing us such an intense script was extremely commendable. Fredrick has written the character and the script in such a way that it feels relevant timelessly, even during the testing times of this pandemic. We believe that any film being put out to the world, should have points that would leave the audience to ponder or debate upon and Jo's films have done it time and again for the well-being of the society."

The actor-producer concluded by stating, "On having watched the preview of the film, we are extremely happy with the effect it created on both men and women who watched it. I am also a huge fan of thrillers and this film satisfies me as an audience and also a producer. We are also happy to be associated with Amazon prime video who are taking this content to over 200 countries and territories."
