“Kaatrin Mozhi will offer a fresh experience for people who have seen Tumhari Sulu too”
Director Radha Mohan has said that Kaatrin Mozhi will offer a fresh experience for people who have seen Tumhari Sulu too.
“This is completely new when it comes to Jyotika and my erstwhile association with her in ‘Mozhi’. She was someone, who doesn’t utter a word and yet convey more emotions and expressions through her eyes in Mozhi. But ‘Kaatrin Mozhi’ is something exactly in contrast, where we would find her indulged with talkative nature.”
“One day, Jyotika called me up and asked if I had seen the Hindi film ‘Tumhari Sulu’ with a suggestion that it would be apt to remake it. It was then, I saw the film and felt it would be apt one too. So things proceeded as it was and I must really thank BOFTA Dhananjayan sir for being a complete support in turning our dreams into reality,” he added.
One of the most highlighting attributes about the film’s progress was the shooting being wrapped in a short span of time. Radha Mohan says, “Everything was completely planned and well written even before the commencement of shoot. In this manner, there wasn’t any confusion during the shoot. We would prepare the entire portions involving the actors and give the dialogue and script papers a day before the shoot. This made the process flow through smoothly.”
“Remaking a film exactly as its original version isn’t a big deal. But we have made so many changes according to the regional tastes, especially with the culture and lifestyle over here. We have included some additional characters in the film, which will be offering a fresh experience indeed,” concluded Radha Mohan.
Kaatrin Mozhi is scheduled to hit theaters on October 18th to coincide with Jyotika’s birthday.
