What's a press meet without asking the usual questions on romance? The press did not disappoint and fired questions asking Vishal about his romance and an annoyed Vishal shot back at them.
"There are so many matters important to this nation. Will this govt last or not? Will gas prices rise or fall? Amidst these, my romance is of no importance to the nation. I will fall in love. If I do, there will be no need to hide it. When I do fall in love, the first people to whom I will divulge this will be to the press.
As to who is spreading these rumours is of no interest to me. I don't have to resort to such cheap means to gain publicity for myself or my films. If I had wanted to, I should have done it with my first film. I am not a person to look back on what could have happened. If I look back, I will remain in one spot. So I do not wish to waste time by talking about the past."
After that, Vishal proceeded to talk about the film. "Four years back, director Rajasekhar told me the story. Since it is a challenging and tough character, we have taken time to make this film. I have really slogged for the past 6 months for 'Sathyam.'
The film's budget has touché 23 crores. The heroine Nayantara has been very cooperative throughout the film. The background music by Harris Jayaraj is very lively."
