I recall the day when you called me after meeting Vinayan Sir...'Shruti, it's a huge movie... a historic movie I always wanted to do. This is a great opportunity to learn new things and I want to give my best for this.'

She added: "From that day till this day Siju Wilson, I have seen the spark in your eyes and you did not let it go till this time. I have seen you training like a beast, even after all the tiring sessions on each passing day, your energy for the next day has always stayed high.

"Very happy to see you grow each day with pride. Let this movie be a mark as one of the best movies in your life and as you know Meher loves you the most. She was with us throughout this journey. You know what I mean...."
