"Directors
and actors should try their hand at film-making in order to
know the difficulties involved in production", says director Ameer, a one-time associate of director Bala, who is ready
with Ram which he is producing and directing. The movie has
Jeeva in the lead. Jeeva who is producer RB Choudhary’s son
was launched by his father in Aasai Aasaiyai. It was an
average movie. Once again Jeeva acted in Thitthikudhe
produced under his home banner. This too did not set the box
office on fire. Jeeva felt that his third film should be an
action film since his earlier two films had him in lover boy
role. Ameer says, "I chose Jeeva to play the hero since I
felt he would fit the same. He has given his best on-screen
and I am pretty much satisfied with his commitment". Gajala
who made her debut in Tamil with the film University plays
his lady love.
Ameer took a long break before launching this film. Posters
of Jeeva sporting a ‘red tilak’ on his forehead and dressed
like a ‘sadhu’ were splashed in the city on the launch day.
The who’s who of Tamil cinema turned up to greet the director
and hero. Ameer says that the title is just kept for catching
the attention of the public. He says, "It is about the love
and affection between a mother and son narrated in a
different way. Though I had offers coming my way after my
debut in Mounam Pesiyadhae, I was keen on producing and
directing this subject, which I conceived long back." He
continues, "The entire movie happens in Kodaikanal and we
completed the entire talkie portion in 10 months. The whole
film was shot in Munnar, Kodaikanal and Yercaud since the
subject demands natural surroundings. Not one frame was shot
in Chennai. The film has romance, action and sentiment in the
right mix and would certainly appeal to the masses". Actress
Saranya plays Jeeva's mother in the movie and Rehman comes in
an important role. Murali, Karunas, Malvika, Ramswami and
Sakthi are the other artistes. Cinematography is by Ramji and
music is by Yuvan Shankar Raja. The film is produced under
the banner of Teamwork Production House.
