Sasikumar wins the Best Actor award for 'Tourist Family'; Bala pens an EMOTIONAL letter

The Chennai International Film Festival is held annually in December and is considered one of the most important award ceremonies in the film industry. Director-actor Sasikumar won the Best Actor award at this year's Chennai International Film Festival for his outstanding performance in the film 'Tourist Family' directed by Abhishan Jeevinth.

This award is seen as an important recognition of his long journey and natural acting skills.

Bala praises Sasikumar's fighting spirit

Sasikumar's success has made director Bala, who has a close working relationship with him, very happy. Bala has written a letter to Sasikumar expressing his heartfelt appreciation and love. In that letter, he described Sasikumar as a man full of love and someone who could calm even the most turbulent sea with his nature. Bala has mentioned that his fighting spirit and simple nature have made him a complete artist.

Bala's demand to Sasikumar

Furthermore, in this letter, Bala has also made a heartfelt request. That is, Sasikumar should direct a film again. Responding to this, Sasikumar shared Bala's letter on social media and wrote, "My heartfelt thanks to brother Bala for giving me national recognition... I will fulfill your wish soon." The gratitude expressed by the two stars reaffirms the artistic respect and strong friendship between the two.

'Tourist Family', an emotional tale

Sasikumar played the role of a Sri Lankan Tamizhan who migrates to India due to his financial situation in 'Tourist Family'. He emerged as a character who transformed the lives of those around him through his simplicity, humanity, and kindness. Although the contributions of actors, including Simran and Yogi Babu, also added strength to the film, Sasikumar's natural acting was the centerpiece of the story. Due to this, the film was well received by the public and even won the Best Film Award at the festival.
