Ahead of the release of his much-anticipated film Empuraan starring Mohanlal in the lead, actor and filmmaker Prithviraj Sukumaran has hailed technicians as superstars. He spoke about the importance of the technicians working on the sets of his films and said that to him, they are the best in the world. 

Technicians are superstars

While talking about how film technicians are celebrated in the south,  Prithviraj told IANS in a conversation, "Well, for me, cinema is always a team sport. So an actor's performance can only be good if his co-actors are equally good. And an actor can only be good in a film; I know now that I am a director saying this is a bit modest, but an actor can only be good in a film if the director lets him be good in a film.”
