Pandhayam’s trailer was launched on July 13, 2008. The function was presided over by Ramanarayanan, president of Producers’ Council. Actor Vijay released the trailer and Simran received it.
Vijay was accompanied by his wife Sangeetha to the function. AVM Saravanan, Kalaipuli Dhanu, Kaja Moideen, Mohan Natraj, and the film’s leading pair Nithin Sathya and Sindhu Tolani, cinematographer Srinivas and music director Vijay Anthony were present at the function.
S.A. Chandrasekhar, Vijay’s father, is directing and producing this film. Speaking on the occasion, Vijay congratulated his father for making such a good movie. Then he narrated how the role landed in Nithin Sathay’s hands. He said when his father discussed the film’s story with him, he found the subject to contain the thrill of Thirupachi or Sivakasi. He thought he would work on the subject later as he was occupied with quite a lot of films at that point. But after a few days, his father told him that he has decided to cast Nithin Sathya in the lead, to which Vijay happily agreed.
When Chandrasekhar spoke, he said that he could have very well waited for Vijay, but he decided not to because he was afraid of working with Vijay. He said that Vijay has grown in stardom, but he is still the same old strict director. He said his strictness could create friction between them, which he wanted to avoid.
