Best wishes to @AdiviSesh and the entire team! ????????https://t.co/Kr0mmKPzsk@majorthefilm @sonypicsindia @GMBents @sonypicsprodns @AplusSMovies @SashiTikka — Mahesh Babu (@urstrulyMahesh) November 27, 2020 ADIVI SESH’S FIRST MEMORY OF SANDEEP UNNIKRISHNAN: Adivi Sesh recites the emotional tale of his experience, tracing the journey from signing the film to meeting Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan's parents. "I can only say that he impacted my life from the first moment I knew about him. It was in 2008, I remember when I had seen his photograph, splashed across all the channels. I didn't know what to make of it, I kept wondering, who is this man. There was some sort of madness of spirit in his eyes aur hothon pe halki si hasi, there was a madness and there was a smile, I couldn't understand it. He looked like he could be one of my family members, an older cousin, and then I found out, he was Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan and he'd given his life for the country. I couldn't stop looking at that now-iconic passport photograph." STORY BEHIND MAJOR SANDEEP UNNIKRISHNAN’S PHOTO: Revealing the story behind the photo, Adivi shares, "I later found out from his parents that he was simply trying not to smile badly when he took the passport picture, he'd given this big wide smile and woh photographer ne fauran daanta unko ki aise nahi haste, passport photo mein hasna nahi chahiye. So the lips were hiding his smile but that madness in spirit was shining through his eyes and I think that's what captivated me, and captivated most of India. I think that picture is very iconic, that is why they make so many paintings of that photo." GETTING PERMISSION FROM THE MAJOR’S PARENTS: Recounting the battle of acquiring the consent of Major's parents, Adivi shares," When I first called uncle, Mr. Unnikrishnan, Major Sandeep's father, he didn't believe ki koi pichhle 10 saal se Major Sandeep ki zindagi pe research kar raha tha and wanted to tell a story inspired by his life. I don't think that uncle believed ka Hyderabad ka koi South Indian ladka jo US mein pala-badha hai, matlab waha se aakar koi film banana chah raha hai. He was very cynical infact. Since they didn't believe me, my team and I we all kept meeting uncle and aunty, I think after the fourth or fifth time, they started to trust me a little bit and I imagined this moment after the fourth meeting, uncle looked me in the eye with lot of sincerity, 'I believe you want to make a movie about my son's life 10%. 0 se 10 tak gaye the and sab hasne lage, we were all laughing ki chalo 0 se 10 tak toh pohoche, and there was a lot of relief behind that laughter because he believed 10% that maybe there was a chance that somebody genuinely wanted to tell this great man's story, not for exploitative reasons but just because they believed in the kind of life this man had led." ADIVI SESH’S EMOTIONAL MOMENT WITH MAJOR’S MOTHER: Opening up about an emotional experience with Sandeep Unnikrishnan's mother, Adivi Sesh recalled, "We had already said our byes to uncle and aunty and were standing near the lift and dur se aunty ne mujhe dekha and she said 'Idhar aao' in heavily accented hindi, so I went to her and she looked me in the eye and she said 'durse bilkul mera beta lag raha hai.' She had a tear in her eye when she said that. I think that is the moment I knew, that I had their permission to tell a story inspired by their son's life." IMPORTANCE OF NOVEMBER 27 : Explaining the importance of the day, Adivi Sesh said, "27th ko Major Sandeep shaheed hue the and so we are releasing this video on the 27th with the intention to celebrate his life. The film speaks about the way he lived, not about the way he died." Concluding his appeal, Adivi Sesh said, "I hope you like my humble attempt in trying to find the spirit of Major Sandeep within myself." Directed by Sashi Kiran Tikka, the bilingual film starring Adivi Sesh, Sobhita Dhulipala and Saiee Manjrekar will be released in both Hindi and Telugu. Produced by Sony Pictures Films India in association with Mahesh Babu's GMB Entertainment and A+S Movies, Major is slated to release next year.
