Tulu film to be shot in 17 hours; it is likely to feature in Guinness World Records

A Tulu film will be shot in 17 hours this September to make it to the Guinness World Records, according to Kadandale Suresh Bhandary, producer. Nageshwara Cine Combines is producing the film. Addressing presspersons here on Saturday, Mr. Bhandary said that it would be directed by 10 directors at a time. The film would have 10 heroes and would be shot in 10 locations.

Tamil actor Rajasimha will don the role of the villain. Rajasimha of Pulikutti (a Tamil film) fame has acted in more than 40 Tamil films. The intention of bringing a Tamil actor is to draw the attention of the Tamil film industry and audience towards Tulu films. This will help widen the horizon of Tulu films, he said.

Mr. Bhandary said that almost all noted Tulu film actors and Tulu theatre actors would act in the film.

Refusing to divulge more information on the story and heroines of the film, he said that the title of the film would be revealed in the due course of time.

Sourabh Bhandary, a Tulu actor, said that earlier the Kannada film Sugreeva was shot in 18 hours. The Tulu film September 8 was shot in 24 hours, he said.

Nageshwara Cine Combines has earlier produced a Tulu film called Ambar Caterers.
