Venkat Prabhu is all excited about his highly-anticipated film Mankatha with Ajith which is going on the floors from October 20 in Hyderabad.
The young filmmaker, who has an out-of-the-box approach to his narrative style, opens up about Mankatha in an exclusive interview to DC.
He starts the conversation with, “Ajith sir gave me a big hug after he heard the final script and it was really heartwarming.” It’s heard that Ajith will be sporting an interesting new look in Mankatha. The director responds, “I discussed his ‘look’ and styling with him at length recently. He called me closer and said, ‘You leave it to me. From today, you are not meeting me till the first day of our shooting!’“I am confident,” he continues, “That he will spring a surprise and come up with his own style statement.”
Refuting rumours that the movie is a gangster film, he explains, “Mankatha is a game of probabilities. Similarly, here, it’s about different people trying to do something and how the equation changes with one particular thing. So there will be lots of unexpected twists and turns. Though it’s a high-voltage action movie with a darker shade to it, there is no violence.”
People say it has been inspired by a Hollywood film. “Oh no! It is my own unadulterated, original script and our own ‘desi’ story, the kind which is actually happening all over the country. The movie, which begins in Hyderabad with Ajith and Trisha, will be shot extensively within India in Bengaluru, Kolkata, Mumbai and Chennai.”
And where will the romantic songs be shot? “It does have a mature, lively romance, but there are no clichéd dream song sequences. We are not going to shoot abroad at all.” There are no CG effects either. According to him it will be a live action, realistic film. He confirms that Neetu Chandra is not a part of the project. Ask him about Trisha’s ‘look’ in the film and he grins. “Trisha is already beautiful. She will be a surprise factor in the flick.”
You can expect the unexpected, he says as he signs off..............உடல் மண்ணுக்கு உயிர் தலைவனுக்கு ( தல )...........தல வாழ்க இன்னும் வளர்க .......
