Vasanthabalan
is all set with his dream project “Kaaviya
Thalaivan(Epic Ruler)” teaming up with superstars Prithviraj,
Siddharth and Oscar winning Musician AR Rahman.This film also has Nassar ,
Vedhika and Anaika in the lead roles.
Rahman
had to do lot of research on the Tamil folk songs of the 1930’s – 40’s period
to come up with these 20 songs. He had to move out from the English fantasy
film Seventh Son to make time for “Kaaviya Thalaivan”. Rahman had prior
conveyed that he had used the folk music and ragams to bring in the 1930s feel.
“Kaaviya
Thalaivan” tells the story of group of
theatre actors, set in the 1930s and their stage musical plays in Madurai
Speaking
at the function, one of the film's producers Shashikanth said "I had a
list of directors whom I should not work with in the industry and Vasanta Balan
was among those in the list. Many told me that Vasanta Balan will take one to
two years to complete a project. But then, those words from others in the
industry made me pick Balan and just like my banner 'Y Not' we broke our
previous antics about Balan and started the project Kaaviya Thalaivan".
Shashikanth
added "Vasanta Balan proved everyone wrong by completing the film within 5
months and now we are having plenty of time for post production".
Shashikanth thanked "AR Rahman for his wonderful songs and also Siddharth
for helping the team to rope in AR Rahman for the project".
With
20 songs from the legend AR Rahman we can expect another run for the Osacrs.
