He also added, “And maybe someday, someday, some good day… people will actually understand where we are coming from!!! I hope! That day will come soon! Here’s a version you haven’t actually seen of mine. This is a voice over version that could not come out due to copyright issues. But here it is for you! Love you my Uyir.”
Nayanthara seemed overwhelmed by his lovely gift and commented, “Uair, I don’t know what I have done to deserve your love. Nothing I do will ever be enough to match your love for me. All I can say is that I promise to love you with all my heart, soul and every cell of my body. As I always say, I love you more than words can say. I am forever grateful to God for giving me you.”
