Rajisha Vijayan is overwhelmed with the success of her latest film Bison, directed by Mari Selvaraj. The actor, who plays a pivotal role as Raaji in the sports drama, has now penned a note of gratitude for the director, and lead actors Dhruv Vikram and Anupama Parameswaran.

In her lengthy Instagram post, the Sardar actor shared a few BTS pictures from the film. She said she was truly left "speechless" by the success of Bison and expressed her happiness on working with Mari Selvaraj once again. For the unversed, Rajisha previously acted in Mari's 2021 film Karnan with Dhanush.

"I don’t know where to start or end but the one person I’m truly grateful for is my director Mari sir. For thinking of me and trusting me with Raji, bringing me into this amazing world of Bison and giving me memories of a lifetime. To work with such a visionary director and empathetic human being has been a privilege," she said, praising the Maamannan filmmaker.

Calling Bison a "fulfilling experience", she also wrote about Dhruv Vikram and Anupama, and the bond she shares with them. "I truly got a brother in the end! I can’t tell you how proud I am of everything that is coming your way now. Rooting for you always!" she said about Dhruv.

For Anupama, she wrote about their sisterhood and friendship. "We are sisters in this and going forward! Here for you always no matter what! Forever my Rani," she added.

Rajisha also thanked actor Pasupathi who plays her father on screen and the producers including Pa Ranjith who were her "biggest pillars of support." Further, she expressed her gratitude to Raveena, who dubbed for her in the film.

She later added, "To every single person who has worked on this film and taken a piece of my heart, I love you all! To everyone who has watched our Bison and showered it with love, I love you all even more! May we be able to create magic on screen as long as we can! Gratitude in abundance."

Produced by Pa Ranjith and Aditi Anand under Neelam Studios in association with Applause Entertainment, Bison also features Anupama Parameshwaran, Lal, Ameer, Pasupathi, and Rajisha Vijayan.

A sports drama, the film is inspired from the life and struggles of Arjuna award-winning Kabaddi player Manathi Ganesan. The film was also recently released in Telugu. Bison has been receiving rave reviews since its release on October 17 and has earned about Rs 45 crore at the box office in India.

The technical crew of the film includes Ezhil Arasu K as the cinematographer, Sakthi Thiru as the editor, Kumar Gangappan as the art director, and Dhilip Subbarayan as the action choreographer.
