Watch: Every film in its own way makes a political statement, says Vetrimaaran

How do you define a political film? At a session titled ‘Let’s Get Gritty: Indigenous Cinema in a Mainstream Environment’ at The Hindu Huddle 2025, film director, producer and screenwriter Vetrimaaran says that every film makes a political statement because man is a political animal. In this conversation with film critic Baradwaj Rangan, Vetrimaaran says the mainstream viewer is a vulnerable and naive viewer.
