Yesteryear
actress
Ambika,
a
popular
South
Indian
face
of
the
1980s,
has
wielded
the
megaphone
for
upcoming
Tamil-Malayalam
bilingual
romantic-thriller
Nizhal.
"Ambika
is
co-directing
the
film
with
Suresh,
a
Malayalam
actor.
This
will
be
the
first
'point
of
view'
(POV)
film
that
will
have
no
cameraman.
The
actors
themselves
will
hold
the
camera
in
the
scenes
thus
allowing
the
audience
to
have
an
enhanced
experience," said
a
statement.
"To
make
it
more
elaborate,
The
audience
will
feel
that
they
are
inside
the
plot
of
the
movie
along
with
the
actors
instead
of
sitting
and
watching
as
a
third
person.
The
scenes
will
be
felt
the
same
way
as
the
actors
feel,"
the
statement
further
added.
The
film
features
an
all
new
cast.
Indu
Thampi
and
Kishore
play
the
lead
in
the
film,
while
Prasoon
Krishna,
Joe,
Suresh,
Venkat,
Pradeep
and
Shruthi
are
in
the
other
cast.
Since
there
is
no
cameraman
involved
in
the
project,
a
40-day
workshop
in
acting
and
camera
techniques
were
given
to
all
the
artists.
One
of
the
emotional
scenes
in
the
film
was
directed
by
Ambika
along
with
her
sister
Radha
Nair,
another
popular
yesteryear
actresses
in
the
South.
Mallikarjunan
has
produced
the
film,
which
is
scheduled
for
an
April
release.
