Exciting roller coaster ride
Director Vadivel has learnt the tricks of the trade from Mysskin when he assisted him in Nandalala, Yuddam Sei and Mugamoodi . When Vadivel decided that the time was ripe to go independent, he narrated the story of Kallapadam to his mentor who gave him a clean chit. “Not only that, Mysskin even wrote and sang a song in the film. There is a unique feature: cinematographer Sriram Santosh, music director K, editor Gaugin and I are appearing as ourselves in the film. Kallapadam is about the four who plan to launch their first film but at this stage it would not be right to reveal the plot. Kallapadam is a hilarious roller-coaster ride. The heroine is Lakshmipriya,” says Vadivel. The film is in its final stages, and Vadivel hopes to release it during the summer holidays.
