Director Venkat Prabhu took some time off his busy schedule while shooting Biriyani to visit the Settai team.

The 'Settai' crew were in for a surprise recently when ace director Mani Ratnam walked into sets and gave pleasant surprise to complete team. R Kannan, a former assistant to Mani Ratnam is directing the film starring Arya, Premgi and Santhanam. If it was the guru surprising his sishyan and his crew then, it was time for the elder brother to pay visit to his younger brother's sets.

The director was canning some scenes for Biriyani when he heard that the Settai team was nearby.He immediately visited the sets and spent some time with the cast and crew, said G Dhananjayan, Chief – South Film Business, Disney-UTV. A mass song for Premji was being shot yesterday and Venkat Prabhu who was also shooting in a close by location visited the sets and kept the team energized.

The song 'Nee thane osathe ponna' was being shot at Binny Mills when the director paid the visit and it is said that Premji was full of energy and danced brilliantly for the mass song.

In his Tweet about this, Dhananjayan said:

“Thanks to Director Venkat Prabhu for dropping in from his shoot next door for Biriyani & keeping the Settai team energized:-)”
