“'Kanchana' was a big hit. 'Ganga' was an even bigger hit.”
“By God's grace, it was turning out to be a cracker of a film, so we named it 'Laxmmi Bomb.' Like a dhamaka of Laxmmi Bomb cannot be missed, the transgender lead character is powerful and radiant. Hence the name fits perfectly.”
“'Kanchana' is not exactly a sequel. Only the character played by me is the same as in the original but the storyline is very different.”
“'Kanchana 2' will be more funny and thrilling than its prequel.”
“If there's one movie of Rajini sir that I've seen multiple times, it has to be 'Annamalai.' The song, 'Vetri Nichayam,' from the film, has been a big inspiration for me.”
“Through Tamil movie 'Kanchana' I wanted to convey the pain and struggles of transgenders and the movie received lot of appreciation from transgender's community and the public.”

“In this age of smartphones, all one needs to do is make a good film. The audience will take care of the rest.”
“The producers and I felt that 'Kanchana 2' would be the apt title when compared to 'Muni 3.' Because, it goes with the prequel and will immediately strike a chord with the audience.”
“'MSKS' is a commercial film with all the usual formula. But, as with my earlier films, there will be a strong social message.”
“I have chosen my own title for my name and it will be that of my mother. I will henceforth be called Kanmani Raghava Lawrence in my forthcoming movies! Nothing can bring me more happiness than my mother's name. No title can be equal to this!”
“I watched the original and I loved the subject and have given my nod to act in 'Shivalinga' remake.”
“I wouldn't have become a dance master if it wasn't for Chiranjeevi annayya.”
“I run a trust and few transgenders approached my trust for help. When I heard them out, I felt like I wanted to tell their story to everyone, first through the character of 'Kanchana' and now with 'Laxmmi' in this movie.”
“Any actor will want his 100th film to be a commercial film, the biggest movie of his career.”
“The only reason we go to temples is in the belief that God will solve all our sorrows in life.”
