Debutant director Abin Hariharan is gearing up for the release of his directorial Others, starring newbie Aditya Madhavan, Gouri Kishan, and Anju Kurian, among others. On Thursday, the film's trailer launch event happened in Chennai, in the presence of the cast and crew.
Speaking at the event, Gouri Kishan said, "Abin Sir narrated the story to me while he was in the hospital, and the scenes instantly came alive before my eyes. The entire team has worked with immense dedication. Grand Pictures has captured the film beautifully. Aditya doesn’t seem like a newcomer at all—he’s delivered an impressive performance. Ghibran Sir’s music is outstanding. I truly hope everyone enjoys the film."
Debut actor Aditya Madhavan said, "I’m truly grateful to director Abin for trusting me, a newcomer, and giving me such a big opportunity in this film. He showed immense confidence in me by casting not one but two heroines alongside a debutant like myself. The moment I heard Ghibran Sir’s music, I couldn’t help but start dancing on the road! A big thanks to cinematographer Aravinnd Singh for making me look my best on screen. Gouri and Anju Kurian have both delivered wonderful performances."
Further, music composer Ghibran said, "Working with a new production house is always a new experience, and Grand Pictures has been incredibly kind and supportive. When Abin narrated the story, I was drawn to how powerful the villain’s character was. Though the hero is a newcomer, he has performed with great confidence and maturity. Both Gouri Kishan and Anju Kurian play significant roles that add depth to the story."
Lastly, director Abin Hariharan said, "After a year-long journey, Others has finally come to life today. I was looking for a newcomer to play the lead, so we conducted auditions and selected Aditya Madhavan—he impressed us right from the start. Many seasoned actors, including Gouri, Anju Kurian, and Hareesh Peradi, have delivered outstanding performances. Cinematographer Aravinnd Singh, an exceptional cameraman, has perfectly translated my vision onto the screen. Ghibran Sir’s music beautifully captures the emotions of the story. Aditya, in particular, has worked incredibly hard and given his all to the film."
