Ilaiyaraaja To Compose Music For Kalathur Gramam
Updated : August 19, 2017 11:12 AM IST After working in several acclaimed movies such as Chinna Thayee, Saran K Advaitha turns independent filmmaker with a period film titled Kalathur Gramam. Touted to be a rural family action drama, the movie features Kishore as the male lead. He will be seen in two different looks from 80s to 2000s.
Kannada actress Yagna Shetty is all set to debut in Kollywood with this film. About the flick, Saran said that it is set in Andhra Pradesh and the Tamil Nadu border with dry barren lands and deals with the conflict which took place between the police and Kishore, who had been involved in a particular activity. The movie will also feature Sunil Kumar in a pivotal role.
Music composer Ilaiyaraaja will compose the music for the film. “Even as I wrote the script, I had Ilaiyaraaja sir in mind as he can only do justice to this rural family action drama,” Advaitha said. He added, “When we approached Raja sir, he listened to the script, but persisted that we complete the movie and then come to him for composition.”
He further stated, “When he saw the film, he got emotional — it was so moving that he teared up. He immediately said that he wanted to do something different in terms of sound. Moreover, he never spoke about the remuneration and we were asked to pay his technicians only. Undoubtedly, Raja sir’s music is the hero of the film.”
