The first Tamil director I've seen who has accepted the fact that he miscalculated certain things. Hats off Lokesh sir

The best thing about Lokesh is that he's ready to learn from some of his mistakes. Truly a next-gen director. This is awesome!!

His explanation about polakatum para song shows about his brilliancy..

29:20 Look at how he accepts the mistakes he made throughout the interview. Man this guy will go to high places with such humility and honesty. Hats off Lokesh👏👏💯

One thing is lokesh is very honest...he accepts the mistakes that he has done and that take will him to a huge place..hope the next movie will be an out n out Loki movie💯🔥

Genuinely he accepts the criticism about master movie, definitely this quality will give him good future.

Mighty respect for Dir. Lokesh for coming out and being open and honest. How many director will do that? Respect!

Lokesh is so humble and his answers are so on point. Here's hoping he and Vijay do more films together.

Master is commercially blockbuster movie...bt as a thalapathy fan we want 100% lokesh movie🔥🔥

Lokesh Kanakaraj's KAITHI is Cinematic Masterpiece. MAANAGARAM is an underrated cinematic gem. MASTER is a Mainstream Mass Entertainer. What an incredible range as a Director 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Baradwaj is the best interviewer I've seen in ages. Can't stop listening to him and is a good example of a good interviewer getting Lokesh to think . Really nice interviews

If Master is what this guy can write in 2 months, I cannot wait to see what he does when given proper time to write!

Anyone who never skipped the interview even for five seconds? I really didn't

He asked everything was not wrong at all and loki as every question a answer....we are waiting again loki👌

Wonderful interview. Master is a classic movie in Thalapathy career. Lokesh sir we need u to direct Thalapathy in another movie with 100% ur style of making.. We want it.👍

How honest is Lokesh he is accepting the fault and taking in the constructive criticism. Great insight into Master thank BR sir. Being a massive Thalapathy fan I loved Master the most after Kaththi but I want Lokesh to do a 100% Lokesh film with Thalapathy & I have a feeling it may happen soon!!!!!

Baddy and Loki interviews ellame vera lvl ... Who else like this combo

Only such Altitude nature Directors can handle Star Vijay kind of big Celebrity Hats of to Lokesh n Vijay

Master is not a complete movie but somehow i like to watch it again and again. I don't say it is awesome but Master 'oru maari mandaiku ulla odite irukku' :)

We want 100% lokesh film with Thalapathy 💯

Im the one who is waiting for 100% Lokesh Film with Thalapathy 🎬💥

This the best interview in some many years . The anchor also know how to ask intelligent doubts . This shows how much focused the actor has watched the film . Lokesh is such a humble person very calculated director.

Mark my words..Lokesh anna will have a great future. He has many good human qualities.He will be one of the greatest directors in the industry for sure 🔥❤️

Note that Lokesh gives the credits to his technical team for most of the questions.👌

We want a 100% lokesh film with thalapathy 🤘

The film is a well balanced flick in all fields. The narrative being so simple yet so captivating at the same time. Lokesh is truly a genius nd his combo with thalapathy worked beyond expectations for me. Last but not least, the sound track was BOMB 💣 🔥🔥🔥.

As a Vijay fan I feel jealous when you were telling Kamal film will be experimenting. Hope VJ - Lokesh do a 100% without any compromise. All the best Lokesh. Humble & you are a good human. :)

He is very genius... He accepts negativity and did n't argue for his point of view was correct.. Keep its and do well🤗

Want 100% lokesh film with thalapathy

I really likes this film. I can see a new vijay here. Lokesh given a consistant narration through out the movie and given depth more to a villain.. I really likes that. Hw a villain born in society, that thing he really shown here. That was superb.. Usual vijay cliche was very low here.. I likes dat.. Here vijay is more down to earth hero compared to other mass movies. He has weakness. And he was defeating infront of the cruel villain sometimes.. Not like other vijay films.. This is a master class from lokesh.. Love u.. Expecting more from u lokesh..

I can feel that BR clearly knows Lokesh is a genius in film making! ❤️

35:00 A good bond between vijay anna and lokesh anna hope that 100% loki film happens🤞🤞

Lokesh accepts criticism , vijay should give him another chance

Thalapathy Style,Action,Song,Emotion...Cutnes....This is really Happy Time Were he bought people to theatres And fans were enjoyed and family audience.....My Thalapathy Is eye opener for Film Industry....Nothing is impossible...

Thalapathy is not name...it's brand 🔥🔥😎

Im wondering how vijay sir is so friendly with these new guys in industry..hatsoff vijay sir for this opportunity to lokesh and lokesh bro you look so matured

We want 💯 % lokesh. Style movie

That ostrich story timing in this interview Lokesh bro thug 😂😂😂

One word about lokesh( brilliance)

We want 100% lokesh film with thalapathy, the story should travel with few characters

Thalapathy & Lokesh master plan💥🔥 Master - 50% , T66 - 70% , third flim - 100%. Guys just relax he knows value of money and profit. Thalapathy vijay has huge market. So he will only show Thalapathy new dimension slowly. If in one movie he show totally different it will become underrated movie and business will be affected. He moving his cards slow and steady 👍💪.

1st half (fully) - Lokesh movie 2nd half ¡)Vijay portion - As usual vijay movie ¡¡)VJ sethupathi Portion - Lokesh movie Overall good movie than👌..

Watched two times in theatre... Thank You Lokesh.... For this Different Vijay Movie..

If Lokesh has done 100% his style of movie.... It would have been more mass

One more detail I liked in Master.. (Spoiler!) JD fight with Bhavani: When JD misses one of punch from Bhavani, the time JD realizes he cannot defeat Bhavani with his physical strength (though he has more anger/vengeance for killed kids/friends). The repeated and continuous hitting from JD after that says it, as he don't want Bhavani to take any small advantage to use his strength. Little later when it actually happened and he has to trick Bhavani to finish the job. The Evilness and Strength is built deep into Bhavani's character and one cannot defeat it on straight. Well written aspect for Bhavani character (took cues from Raavanan) 👏🏼👍🏼💐

The most humble thing is Lokesh accepts his mistakes 👏👏 what a man !

Justification for polakattum parara.. BR was jawdropping on the other side. Lokesh is a damn genius.

Master Amazing Lokesh We Want Lokesh 100% Film Once again 🔥

It's absolutely great that a director is willing to sit down with a critic and get his thoughts, it's only going to make him a better director

Dear Lokesh and team, watched Master on Prime. Up there with Ghilli, Pokkiri, Thuppaki and Theri as one of Vijay Anna's best. Bhavani character played by Sethupathi Anna one of the best villain in Indian Cinema. Enjoyed the movie. Pacing could have been better. Waiting for Vikram.

3hrs is so justified. No even single scene is bored enjoyed complete movie. Waiting fa lokesh n vj Na's 100% film😍🔥 Ma fav kamal film in 2k release is unnai pol oruvan so as lokesh said it's emotional action film so I thnk vikram wil b lik unnai pol oruvan. Can't can't wait to watch in big screen ❤️❤️

One of best director of Tamil cinema recent time...he can reach high position .. congratulations Loki🙏🎉👍.... waiting for vickram

We need 100% lokesh movie with thalapathy...

BR is a very good interviewer. For every answer that Lokesh gives, BR carved out the next question which is actually very insightful and intriguing. Thoroughly enjoyed this session.

What loki said was true, when you see "jd" as vijay you cant enjoy that character, was totally disappointed watching it for the first time, but totally liked the character jd in my second time watching the movie, this is not a flawless movie but kinda growing on me, thanks br for this interview🙌

After Murgadoss & atlee Lokesh favourite director for thalapthy vijay fans Madly waiting another Thalapathy lokesh combo

No back story for Vijay and reasoning for VJs is a bold decision by Vijay and Loki👏🏾 Damn those Kutti stories of Vijay and Final vada en Machi were really blockbuster moments in theatre and talking points for sure😍👏🏾👍🏾

I really loved how open Lokesh sir was to criticisms of his film and he explained his side pretty well too. That where he was coming from and why he made the choices that he did. Of course hats off to BR sir also for not sugar coating anything asking those questions directly. This is how a conversation between a critic and a director should be. 👍

I am a person who only watch movies which are meaningful and something that gives a good impression to the society. I watch english telugu malayalam movies too. You brought out the substance from each character be it Vijay sethupathi. Vijay all others even the kids did the part so well especially the two kids who die in the reformatory center

I like the way lokesh is so cool and honest. He accepts his mistakes and at some point some of our complaints about the movie is cleared through his answers. Apart from some mistakes, others were really enjoyable and logically correct to watch. Whatever thalapathy is a gem of a person. He really have the idea of changing but he is stucked between the fans and his market. 1:06:48 Happy to hear that❤️

What an incredible interview.,i think no one can do such as open hearted Lokesh, vj fans truly satisfied with this kind of screen. vera level bro..

We need a 100% Lokesh movie with thalapathy

35:00 is vijay anna kaappu

Whatever they say ....my opinion I ever had seen a Vijay movie like master... I really enjoyed the movie...vera level vera level💯💯🤩🤩

Fans are always be with Hero.. So, ungalk eppadi venalum vijay anna ve vech padam panalam... ❤️

1:09:27 Loki to Baradwaj: Neenge ithellam kekkumbothu ostrich kathe than nyabagam varuthu 😂😂

Lokesh is very humble and loved the way he speaks.. Wishing him all the very best and reach great heights....

I think that this interview is shot for a whole day😲

More than we want 100% lokesh film with Vijay we want more Lokesh-BR conversations 😂.

Lokesh.... You are one of my all time favourite directors... Not for the films you've done... But for the films you're about to do...

Lokesh is honest explaining his intentions and accepting his mistakes as well.! Looking forward to witness his growth! Baradwaj Rangan never ever thought you will do this for a commercial movie! Thank you for that! The best interviews of Loki's were with Baddy's!

Lokesh sir you are very natural ! Do more experimental movie like maanagaran! Tqsm for master which has full of climax scenes from movie starting to end! We are lucky to have a director like u in tamil industry!

If it's a kamal movie its also a lokesh movie too.I think u understand

I haven't been a huge fan of Vijay's Mass films, with the exception of Gilli , Thupakki and Theri. To my pleasant surprise I truly enjoyed Master, I'm glad it stayed a Lokesh Kanagaraj film above all else. I found myself laughing at the puns and irony interlaced in the script, whether the 'I'm waiting" dialogue or gillie's BGM. Truly is a trendsetter . It's the first time I saw Vijay breakdown and cry and see a shaded, realistic stardom

The more he explained about the making.. the more I'm impressed with his film making.. he is really going to be huge.. waiting for one more movie with thalapathy. But this time completely in his style..

Most important film in Vijay's career is Thuppakki,Whatever memes for ARM,ARM scripts for vijay is thoroughly blending with vijay's stardom.

Tbh this guy Loki is something else. I've gotten so much into him and his works lately that he has become my recent crush. The way he explains and accepts the flaws will and must take him to greater places. Expecting many more HITS from him and kudos to everything he has done till date.

Vijay is really a phenomenol actor with effortless acting skills nd swag style attitude. His swag charisma is simply unmatchable. He can act double roles nd triple roles very easily in a natural way, lyk in mersal nd bigil.he is actually really versatile. Very stylish actor Lots of luv frm mumbai

1:09:18 ostrich story thug😂🔥🔥

Excellent Interview..an interview wins when the right questions are asked..This almost looks like a micro details of movie..and see the maturity level of Lokesh while answering..1hr interview..not a single minute bored me..❤️❤️

I really loved how the director showed respect to the two boys who died . It was touching and gave real meaning to the hero's cause unlike other mass movies

The whole film is about newtons third law...no hero and villain...just characters...lokesh should reach global heights...god bless him

He accepted his mistakes and truly he's the best director i have seen so far. all the very best for VIKRAM. we need 100% of lokesh movie with vijay PLEASE

My very first thought after watching master is that Lokesh has to join with Thalapathy once again and show his cent percent kadhai thiraikadhai vasanam iyakkam!!!

I like how Loki accepted all the criticisms and understood what went wrong. When he explains the scenes it makes sense but not all translated well as a cohesive movie. I am definitely a fan of this man and his craft

This is the most honest interview ever 🔥

I have watched soo many Lokesh Interviews in this one week to the point where now I have a crush on him😂 Started watching to know about Master but impressed with his clear headed mind and maturity to analyse his own work. A person who learns to accept criticism will keep growing

Lokesh is really one of my favourite directors right now 🔥He would really reach great heights...Lokesh had showed us a new genre of Vijay in Master ..I loved this movie 🔥🔥🔥🔥

This was awesome! Totally enjoyed it. That moment when Lokesh mentioned about VJ telling that bracelet is his 😬😍 Love that rapport between them.

Being a thalapathy fan, I wish to see 100% lokesh's movie with Thalapathy.

Knowingly or Unknowingly Arjun Das is also a big+ for this movie

We Want 100% Lokesh Film With Vijay Marana waiting for this Combo 🎬💥

Appreciate BR for hosting this show and getting into the details of script with the director himself. Lokesh really deserves respect for honest interview. Expecting more and more interviews like this❤️

He is one of the most talented director in recent times. Very sensible in explaining about each scenes which shows his creativity. Mark my word, he is going to be in first row of top directors in 3-4 yrs.

Lokesh sir most talented director in South India

We want 100% lokesh film
