Mersal has become the one and only South Indian film to be included in the ARRI Showreel 2018, an 8-minute long video by the manufacturers of the coveted ARRI cameras – Alexa, Amira and Alexa Mini. The video, which has been in production for over a month, has images from Bollywood blockbuster Padmaavat too, apart from important English films such as 3 Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri, The Shape of Water and Oscar winner for cinematography – Blade Runner 2049.
Cinematographer GK Vishnu, who is delighted with the news, has wholly thanked his director Atlee for trusting and giving him the opportunity.
