Music director Thaman found himself at the centre of discussion after a remark he made during the teaser launch of Bandmelam, a film starring Court fame Roshan and Sridevi, which is set to release on March 13. While addressing the young lead pair on stage, Thaman made a casual comment about their on-screen chemistry, saying it should not “turn into physics.” The line was said in a light-hearted manner, but it quickly drew attention for the wrong reasons.
Several attendees and social media users felt the remark was inappropriate, especially because both Roshan and Sridevi are very young and new to the film industry. The comment appeared to leave the actors visibly uncomfortable, with the young actress looking particularly embarrassed on stage. Many felt that such statements, even if intended as humour, are not suitable when made about minors or newcomers who are still finding their footing in cinema.
Industry observers pointed out that public platforms like film events demand greater sensitivity, especially from senior technicians and well-known personalities. As a respected music director with a strong influence, Thaman’s words carry weight and are often widely shared online. Comments made in a casual tone can be misunderstood or send the wrong message, particularly to parents who are considering supporting their children’s interest in acting.
The incident has reignited a larger conversation about how public figures in the film industry should communicate at events and the responsibility they carry while addressing young actors. Many believe that while light banter is common at promotional events, care must be taken to ensure that jokes do not cross boundaries or make newcomers uncomfortable. The episode serves as a reminder that influence comes with responsibility, and a few words on stage can shape public perception and impact young talents in lasting ways.
