“Kanaa is just not an emotional film; it has a lot of racy moments”

Thaanaa Serndha Koottam cinematographer Dinesh Krishnan has showered praise on Kanaa helmed by debutant directorial project Arunraja Kamaraj. The film, which is produced by Sivakarthikeyan Productions, is all set to hit screens on December 21st for the Christmas weekend along with a slew of other movies.

“All credit goes to filmmaker Arunraja Kamaraj and his team of assistants and storyboard artists. Even before I could feel the challenges and pressures of shooting cricket matches for the film, they had belittled my assumptions by giving a clear picture of what had to be filmed. Incisively, this was very much useful while canning the portions of cricket matches,” says Dinesh Krishnan.

So were there any other challenges that had to be handled during the shoot. “Kanaa isn’t just an emotional film, but has lots of racy moments as well. Usually, capturing emotions would demand for close-up shots, whereas when it came alongside raciness in matches, it had to be balanced eventually. Moreover, with ace performers like Sathyaraj sir, Aishwarya Rajesh and Sivakarthikeyan delivering an awe-inspiring act, it added a sense of more responsibility. However, an efficient team effort gave a clear insight about output that made the process smoother,” tots up Dinesh.

While appreciating producer-actor, he adds, “I must thank producer Sivakarthikeyan for being completely open to my ideas. He was never hesitant towards anything. His only intention was to deliver a high quality film and was eager to spend lavishly. I have always admired the way he projects his looks on the screens, but I couldn’t take off my eyes for his new makeover.”

Aishwarya Rajesh and Sathyaraj play the lead roles in the film.
