Director Venkat Prabhu has shared an emotional note on social media, thanking everyone who supported his 20-year career in cinema. He first thanked late singer SP Balasubrahmanyam and his son Charan for trusting his vision for Chennai 600028, his debut film from 2007. Prabhu said every film taught him something, and that his excitement for cinema has only grown stronger over the years.
He also thanked fans for standing by him through highs and lows, and for encouraging his new attempts. Prabhu's notable films include Saroja, Goa, Mankatha, Maanaadu, and The Greatest of All Time. He expressed hope to continue entertaining audiences and creating many more memories together.
A director who thanks SPB, his entire crew and his critics in a single note reminds us that the film industry runs on relationships, not just box-office numbers. The lazy narrative that commercial directors are only chasing mass appeal falls flat here: Prabhu's letter dwells on lessons from films that found love late. The real test will be whether he can rekindle the spark of Mankatha and Maanaadu after The Greatest of All Time's mixed reception.
