This scene sticks out like a sore thumb in the film. But it is one of the ways by which Adhi tried to mend his mistake. He says, “We all evolve as people. I was this youngster who moved from Coimbatore to Chennai, and I was in cultural shock. I believed and wrote ‘Club Le Mabbu Le’. But as years passed, I reached a certain point where I realised it was wrong. I accept I did that, I corrected it, and I am a better person now.”
Speaking about why he included the apology as a dialogue in his film, Adhi asserts that accepting or owning his mistake wasn’t enough. He believes that art reaches a vast audience, and hence he had to reinforce his apology through another art form. He adds, “Whoever has followed ‘Club Le Mabbu Le’ would have followed my films too. And that’s why I publicly apologised through Sivakumarin Sabatham, though the scene was deviating from the core idea of the film.”
