It is safe to say that the Tamil film industry has always welcomed new talents with open arms. Director Kalyaan S, who participated in Naalaiya Iyakkanur Season 2, is making his debut with Gulebagavali, which stars Prabhudheva and Hansika in the lead roles.
Kalyaan, in a brief chat with DC, opens up about the film, Prabhudheva’s various looks, and on what he has in store for the audience. The debutant is all praise for his hero Prabhudheva. “When I finished writing the script, I approached Prabhudheva sir, who was very excited to see the film on screen. I’d just give him an overview of what the scene is, and he’d develop it in his own style. Without him, I don’t think the film would have been possible,” he shares.
Elaborating more about the film, he says, “Gulebagavali will chronicle events starting from 1947 to present year. So, Prabhudheva sir will have different getups. We have completed the talkie portions and are currently shooting a song sequence in a lavish set.”
The director also adds that they will be shooting the fight sequences in a grand manner too. “We had spent a chunk of money in erecting huge sets for the songs. Likewise, the action blocks will be something to watch out for. We have roped in Peter Hein for the stunt sequences,” he reveals. Kalyaan concludes saying that the team is planning to release the film for Diwali 2017.
