a little rice...a little sambar.. !



a little rice...a little sambar.. !


'cinemaa maadodhu andre pulav maadida haagalla....'' I remember a famous film personality telling me once upon a time... FILM MAKING ISNT LIKE COOOKING UP A SPICY PULAV OR BIRYANI... ! What he meant was... the industry thinks that ten creative people can sit together and make a film.... so... one guy does the music...the other does the choreography... the other writes screenplay... and one more guy writes dialogue.... TOGETHER , they add up all spices and conjure up a tasty pulav...!


But, alas...film making is all about that single idea.. Every film has to have that single idea...the premise and that should determine the style and the format of the film. THATS WHAT I BELIEVE IN...


NAM AREA is about one such single idea...the premise of the film is simple.... the framework is simple.... NAM AREA LONDINA ( a day in our locality) is literally the premise of the film..The film's style is determined by the ambience of an 'area'... SO, this time we dont get a pulav... this time...its a LITTLE RICE AND A LITTLE SAMBAR!!
