Actor Thilakam has been in Tamil cinema for generations. Sivaji was the one who showed freedom-seeking leaders like Bharatiyar, Keplotiya Tamilan, Veerapandiya Kattabomman as a fictional character to those who could not see them in person through his films.
Apart from that, the stories of mythological characters like Karnan, Veera Abhimanyu, etc. were not left out. It was Shivaji who gave hope that it would have been like this. In this way he will carry his character along with the story. Shivaji himself had told the secret of his incredible performance in an interview.

I don’t normally think of people I meet outside as assaults. No matter who it is, no matter what the situation, I will pay close attention when I see them. I see everyone like that.
Even if I look at it for a while, their memories, memories, and looks will become indelible in my mind. That’s how Kanji happened to meet the elder. Observing his appearance closely, I observed how he looked and how he walked. It was a meeting as always.

But that was very helpful for the character of Apar that I played. Shivaji had said in that interview that the character I played in the film was influenced by him. What a gentleman Shivaji!.
