• It was a chance discussion with a friend that lay the seeds of Bachelor in debutant director Sathish Selvakumar’s mind. “I created a story around something I heard, and narrated it to only one person (G Dillibabu), who agreed to produce the film,” says Sathish, who hails from Coimbatore and has assisted filmmakers like Sasi and RNR Manohar previously, “I went in to meet the producer with zero expectations but I have been really lucky that things fell in place.”
  • Sathish, who is currently in talks to finalise his second project, is a huge fan of Mexican filmmaker Alejandro Inarritu, whose notable films include Amores Perros and Babel.
