Tamil
thriller
Netru
Indru
has
been
shot
in
uninhospitable
forests
of
Tamil
Nadu
and
on
edges
of
bordering
states.
The
director,
who
claims
that
it
was
challenging,
said
that
the
film
is
a
true
suspense-thriller.
"It's
a
suspense-thriller
shot
completely
in
the
forests
of
Tamil
Nadu
and
several
other
places.
The
story
revolves
around
characters
in
a
forest
and
events
happening
around
them.
What
we
have
done
in
this
film
is
different.
We
have
done
away
with
romance
or
sentiment
to
ensure
the
film
remains
a
true
thriller
at
heart," director
Padma
Magan
told
IANS.
"The
film
draws
a
parallel
between
events
happened
in
the
past
and
ones
that
are
currently
happening
in
the
forest.
I
think
the
biggest
highlight
of
the
film
would
be
the
narrative,
which
I
think
is
unique
in
Tamil
cinema,"
he
added.
The
film
was
shot
in
places
such
as
Malabar
Coast,
South
Deccan
plateaus,
Western
Ghats
mountain
rain
forests,
Andhra
Pradesh
and
Pondicherry.
The
film
features
Vimal,
Prasanna
Venkatesan,
Richard,
Nandhagi
and
Arundhati.
What
was
challenging
in
shooting
in
the
forests?
"While
one
of
the
challenges
could
be
the
changing
weather,
we
also
had
problems
with
the
lighting
for
filming.
Most
of
the
time
it
was
dark,
and
we
had
to
wait
for
some
light.
When
we
couldn't
have
the
appropriate
lighting,
we
opted
for
artificial
light
to
complete
a
particular
scene,"
he
said.
Produced
by
S
Malathy,
the
film
is
likely
to
release
in
May.
