Nearly
70
percent
of
forthcoming
Tamil
crime
drama
Vil
Ambu
was
shot
in
the
bustling
streets
of
Coimbatore,
and
its
director
Ramesh
Subramaniam
said
the
whole
experience
was
taxing
and
challenging.
"We
must've
shot
about
70
percent
on
the
streets
of
Coimbatore,
and
most
of
it
was
fight
and
chase
sequences.
It
was
extremely
tough
to
manage
the
crowd,
but
we
didn't
mind
it
because
we
wanted
everything
to
be
realistic,"
Subramaniam
told
IANS.
The
film,
which
may
release
in
theatres
on
Thursday
(December
24th),
features
Sri,
Harish
Kalyan,
Srushti
Dange
and
Chandini
T
in
important
roles.
"Most
of
the
scenes
on
the
streets
were
shot
with
real
people.
Although
the
whole
experience
was
taxing,
especially
running
around
with
cameras
for
the
perfect
shot,
we're
happy
that
the
output
has
come
out
very
well," he
said.
How
did
he
succeed
shooting
on
the
streets?
"I
was
born
and
bred
in
Coimbatore.
Since
I
knew
most
of
the
people
in
the
locality
where
we
shot,
I
could
manage
to
shoot
without
much
hassle.
I'm
also
thankful
to
them
for
their
support
and
understanding," he
said.
The
film
is
about
the
journey
of
two
characters.
"It's
humans
who
are
responsible
for
each
other's
loss
or
gain.
The
story
is
about
how
the
loss
of
one
person
becomes
the
gain
of
the
other," he
said,
and
added
everything
in
the
film,
including
the
action
and
performances,
has
been
handled
very
realistically.
Heaping
praise
on
his
lead
actors
Sri
and
Harish,
he
said:
"Both
of
them
will
be
seen
in
very
contradicting
roles.
Sri,
particularly,
will
be
seen
in
a
very
different
role".
