Shivamani full of action

Sri Murali and Sharmila Mandre are teamed up in Shivamani directed by debutant director Amarnath and produced by new production company Pai Group. Ajay Pai one of the producers of the film says that the film has been made with a big budget and is happy that the film has turned out to be a good action thriller.

"We have shot the film in many places including in Kullu and Manali. And the film's major sequences have been shot in Bangalore, Doddaballapur and some mines in the state. The college portions have been shot in JSS college. Everything has gone well with the film except that the film has overshot its budget. The action sequences will be the major attraction of the film," said Ajay Pai and Amaranth.

"There were many problems that we encountered during the making of the film. I have also learnt many lessons during the making of this film. But I think the film has come out well to make us forget some of the irritants during the shooting of the film," said Pai.

Director Amarnath said that the film has come out as he had visualized during the writing part of story and script. He said all the artistes have co-operated well. Sri Murali said that he is happy with the making of the film. "The film has a very gripping story line and fight sequences have come out very well," he added. Sharmila Madre felt that there were many risky shots in the film which have come out very well.

Actor Ramesh Bhat appreciated the producers for their transparent and honest dealings.
