Actress Preity Mukhundhan became emotional while speaking about the team behind her upcoming Tamil film Anbil Avan at the title teaser launch.
The actor, who has recently been seen in projects including Blast and Idhayam Murali, is set to play the female lead opposite Ashok Selvan in the film directed by R Kaarthikeyan.
During the event, Preity spoke warmly about the people involved in the project and described the team as being much more than a group of colleagues.
“This team is more than a team. They are family. Everyone in this team is very close to my heart,” she said.
Her comments became particularly emotional when she spoke about her experience working with Ashok Selvan.
Preity Mukhundhan Says Ashok Selvan Gave Her Creative Space
Preity had special praise for Ashok, highlighting what she described as his willingness to give female co-stars room to perform.
She said she could confidently describe him as a mainstream male actor who does not feel insecure about allowing his female co-stars to have an important presence on screen.
“Of all the mainstream male actors, Ashok is one person I can confidently say who will, without any insecurity, give space to his female co-stars,” Preity said.
She thanked him for the creative freedom and support he offered her while making the film.
“Thank you. I am eternally grateful to you for giving me the space you have given me in this film.”
Her comments underline the importance she places on an actor being comfortable sharing the spotlight, particularly when a film depends on the chemistry and performances of its lead pair.
She Says Her Anbil Avan Character Will Connect With Women
Preity also spoke about the character she plays in Anbil Avan.
According to the actress, the role has been written with considerable care and could resonate with a wide range of women and girls.
“This is a character that you have beautifully written. As you said, this character will connect with a lot of women and girls,” she said.
Rather than discussing the character only in terms of the romantic storyline, Preity’s comments suggest that the role has an emotional and relatable dimension that she believes audiences will recognise.
The actress also credited the director for helping her understand the character and discover the right way to portray it.
Preity Mukhundhan Thanks Director R Kaarthikeyan
Preity praised R Kaarthikeyan for the effort he put into helping her build the character.
She said the director worked closely with her throughout the production, explaining the nuances of the role and helping her bring out emotions that were required for the performance.
“Throughout this film, you have helped me, taught me the nuances of this character, worked with me and extracted it from me,” she said.
Her comments reflect the collaborative nature of the filmmaking process and the importance of a director-actor relationship when developing a character for the screen.
For Preity, the experience appears to have involved considerable guidance as she worked to understand the emotional layers of her role.

She has also appeared in Kannappa, adding to her growing list of screen credits.
With Anbil Avan, the actress is now taking on another prominent role, this time opposite Ashok Selvan.
The project has generated interest following the release of its title teaser, with the cast and creative team beginning to offer audiences a glimpse of what the film has in store.
What We Know About Anbil Avan

The film’s title teaser has introduced audiences to the project ahead of its wider promotional campaign.

Her praise for the writing also suggests that the role has been designed to connect with women and younger female audiences.
A Special Moment for Preity at the Teaser Launch
The teaser launch appeared to be an emotional occasion for Preity, particularly as she reflected on the relationships she developed with the film’s team.
Calling the team her family and thanking Ashok Selvan and Kaarthikeyan individually, the actress spoke less about the usual promotional talking points and more about the working environment that shaped her experience on the film.
Her comments about Ashok were particularly notable because she focused on the space he allowed her to occupy as a female lead.
For Preity, that support appears to have been an important part of making Anbil Avan.
As the film moves further into its promotional phase, audiences will get a closer look at the characters, performances and story that prompted such a warm response from the actress.
