Still overwhelmed by the love the film received during its re-release, Nivetha shared a heartfelt note about the experience:
“It was my first re-release experience. You sang every song word for word, recited the dialogues, knew every scene that followed, and cheered for your favourite characters. It made me realise that with every passing year, the impact of this film has only grown stronger. Ninnu Kori… a film I truly love that keeps on giving. So grateful for all the love you continue to show.”
Her lovely and emotional message has now won the hearts of netizens. Fans are showering her with love in the comments, praising her simplicity and warmth. Many are also hoping to see her sign more films soon and make a stronger comeback to cinema.
